Made $2.50 at the thrift today

Just a quick post but I had to share a funny thing that happened at the thrift today. I found a large rolled up laminated map of the USA with a $1 price tag on it. Another customer sees me with it and asks if there's any more. I say "No" and he looks all depressed and goes on to say he's wants a large map like that to put thumbtacks on all of his travels. Meanwhile I'm thinking it would be a good thing to put on a wall for Jacob to learn states, cities, capitals etc. So anyways the guy goes, I'll give you a dollar if you let me buy it. I pause. Then he goes, how about $2.... $2.50??? I heard myself saying "sold!". (There will always be other maps around....). Now if I was nice, I would have just let him buy it. But did you see the book I bought the other week???
