Blue Light Special

Back in the United States, there is a store, K-mart, that from time to time makes an announcement:

Attention, K-mart shoppers. We have a blue light special for the next fifteen minutes on (vacuum cleaners/ school supplies / men’s clothing / holiday wrapping / . . .ad infinitum) on Aisle whatever.

So when I saw this at the local co-op, I just had to grin:

  2. K-mart makes an announcement, and you look for the flashing blue light, and where you find the flashing blue light, that is the blue light special!

  8. Greetings, Earthling, glad to see you habeebi (dear one). You would be amazed at how bright they are! And they BLINK!

    Skunk – well, it blinks. I don’t know how the top one got activated, but it really did look like a blue light special!

    Kinano – The Tipping Point interests me. I probably need to read that. Most of my NF reading is finance or international relations.
