Except/Accept and How to Make Cents


I initially noticed that according to this sign Big Red (on Congo in Benton, Arkansas) is advertising that it does not take EBT cards. Probably, the sign maker intended to say that this store will ACCEPT EBT cards. Upon closer examination of the sign, I realized that Lipton Tea is actually being advertised for less than one penny. This should have been written $.79 because the tea likely costs about 3/4 of a dollar not 3/4 of a penny. If I were confrontational, I could try to buy some tea for less than a penny. That is not really my style, though. I am a bit more passive...hence the blog.
