prepstudinsc: Harris-Teeter is the store of choice in these parts....it's now based in Matthews, NC, a suburb just east of Charlotte, NC, but owned by the company who also owns Stop & Shop ( I think that's the right chain) in the North East. The flagship store is in the ritzy section of Charlotte and one can get anything you possibly could want--from pork rinds and cheap beer to caviar and French champagne, it has a bank branch. a Starbucks, a GNC store, and a flower shop that carries some of the best flowers in Charlotte. In slang terms, the store is called the "hairy tittie" or the "hairless peter".

7x6andchg: I'll say it again - I thought we had it bad with Cub, Rainbow, Snyder, SuperAmerica, and Speedway.

Harris - Teeter still cracks me up.

GreenEyes: OK some advice to the men and their wallets......

If you are in a stable job leave your social security card and birth certificate at home in a fire proof box or a safe or the bank safe. There is a thing called identity theft out there in the world and if your wallet gets lifted you are screwed. *Just a New Yorker shedding some advice.

Next advice most of you do not carry condoms with you. tssk tsk. If single or swinging wrap that sucker up. :)

OK glad to see that your wallets are almost as bad as my purse. Isn't it amazing how we hold on to scraps of paper assumming it is important. Something about letting things go.

7x6andchg: Greeneyes-

Point taken with the condoms...but I actually keep my limited and soon to be expiring supply in the bedroom. Only once in my experience has it come up (pardon the pun) that one was needed when I wasn't in my bedroom...and I ran out and bought some.

Still, though, good advice for us single men...

They need to market a condom container that a man may keep in his pocket and which will protect the condom from the breakdown caused by heat.

If a guy keeps a condom in his wallet for too long it is going to be affected adversely by the heat of the body and the latex will break down, causing the danger of breakage or leakage.

It is a good idea, Greeneyes, to be prepared, but don't keep those things in your wallets, guys.

awellhungboi: If anybody wants my identity, they can have it.

For me, I have to carry my SS card with me.  I don't have a bank account, driver's license, or credit card, and the bank where I cash my paycheck demands two forms of I.D.  Even though I know one of the tellers, they still ask for both.

My Birth Certificate Card is a small card, certified by the state of Virginia.  Designed to be carried in a wallet.  It's actually pretty cool.  (edit: 'actually pretty cool' may be the overstatement of the year.  It's probably the uncoolest thing on the planet.  But handy.)

I'm one of those guys who does carry condoms--cause you never know.  Although I'm thinking it might be time to get a new box.  These say 'The Official Larger Size Condom of the 1984 Olympics.'

I'm guessing that's printed lengthwise on the condom, revealed as it unrolls...? C'mon, Monstro--bet you sport the unabridged version: 'The Official Larger Size Condom of the 1984 Olympics, Proudly Held in Los Angeles, California, in the United States of America' ;)

longtimelurker: Am I the only one here that doesn't like carrying too much cash around with them? I try to only keep a max of £20-30 (about $30-45), and if (God forbid) I go above £50 I start to get paranoid that I'm going to be mugged! It's as though I feel as though I've got a big neon sign above my head saying 'target' :).

7x6andchg: Boreas -

ONLY 90 Euros? :D I don't think I've had $100 cash in my wallet in a LOOOONG time. Mostly $20 or $40 max. So I'm with LTL and Pecker on this one....

That said, American posters (and interested other parties) - the new US $20 bill comes out in 2 weeks (October 9th). Green, orange, and blue. So at least we'll all have something new to look at in our wallets.

throb919: Okay, Paul--I know you've been lovin' the "Hairy Teeters" grocery store name for awhile. So here's your very own Harris Teeter VIC card:

VIC-card.jpg


Usually VIC stands for Very Important Customer...but I guess we could change that to Very Important Cheese-head for you. Or Vigorously Indefatigble Cubs-fan. Or the obvious Very Impressive Cock...

Enjoy!
