Cost Of Living

A woman was shopping in a fairly nice dress store. Trying on a dress and liking it, she asked the salesman the price. When he told her she launched into a tirade about prices these days, covering just about everything from housing to auto tires.

After ten minutes or so, the salesman had obviously had enuff and said:

- My dear lady. If the cost of living is so high and obviously so offensive to you, why do you bother?
