4. Who pays for the toys? |
|
Did I ever tell you about the time I told my old man that I had some money when we went shopping? Well, he was sort of complaining about the high prices for the groceries, so I blurted out that I had some money. We were right at the counter, and my dad got a little embarrassed. So, he looked down at me and said, "You do?" I said, sure, and pulled out my wallet and got out $100 in play money. They were little Trix dollars, cut fresh from a sheet of $20 dollar bills that were included in the box of Trix cereal the week before. The clerk chuckled quite a bit about it, but my dad thought it was a nice gesture anyway. He told me to save my money for later.

So they like ... sell toys. Like video games.
Is it THAT hard to figure out, people?

8. That's Right, But Toys Are Sold in Toy Stores |
|
Who said only tiny tots play with toys? The only people I know who can afford PS3s are adults - and no brat is getting their sticky little fingers on it.

Right now, the PS3 is just a Blue-ray player

Most people don't even have an HD ready TV
