what dat include.. air/hotel & car? if so dat reasonable fi 9 days.
ok mi notice seh the stores not as crowded as before.. the lehman bros people dem a lay low pon dem spending and people swho have money are being cautious with spending it.. so if you need an appliance or something like that and have the cash a good time fi buy
prices for items are going up though... i can see it in the items i buy at the market.. I am easily paying $40 more than last year Plus when you have kids and they are growing is more expensive every year

Shop owner starts telling me how she's thinking about buying a new car because it looks like a good time to get a good deal.
I ask her - what's wrong with her current car - how old is it ...
She said nothing wrong with the current car - she just used to havin' a new car every 3 or 4 years and she's getting tired of the Honda - wants a Beemer now.
<span style="font-style: italic">
(this is after the long arse conversation 45minutes previous on how business has almost screeched to a halt and now how she's going to have to help take care of her 27 yr old daughter who just got laid off)</span>Comment
