    Maybe they don't take checks, or credit cards?[:)]

    I agree.

    That is quite the question.

    Should I go into the gas station business - or the armed robbery business?

    They got some cash alright, But the owner of the station appears to have been "skimming" or not paying his gas delivery and was behind. So by a miracle someone robbed the place and he claims a loss of $400K. Insurance pays off and he's back in business.

    I should be a mystery writer.

    It was probably just a typo. It was probably $400 and they put a comma instead of a period And an extra zero behind the period.

    Freaking Slim Jims are expensive as hell.

    Probably sold a couple of dozen of those and didn't make it to the night deposit.

    And insurance isn't going to cover his cash.

    ? How many Slurpies is that?
    There are 3 kinds of people in the world. Those who can do math and those who can't. :?
