How is $20 at Smith's better than $20 at Walbogs?

What's heavier, 20lbs of cotton or 20lbs of stone?

Hell, you should consider yourself lucky to have gotten that! We here get Jack Shit for a Christmas bonus! They didn't even want to give us Monday after Christmas off from work until we told them none of us were coming in anyway! Tight fisted bastards!

I don't think too many people are getting that day off, unless you've got a city or a county job.

People keep saying that as if I'm ever going to actually remember to redeem my stupid food stamp!

Basically I've got a piece of paper that will sit in my wallet till I notice it after it's expired and toss it out, and you don't. Merry fucking chirstmas to me!

What the hell is a Christmas bonus? Is that like two grumpy holiday shoppers for the price of one?
