office despot indeed

i went to the local office depot store to buy packing tape. they had just one kind on the shelf suitable for my purposes: a roll of "clear duct tape" selling for over $7. you've got to be kidding me. it wasn't even one of those ginormo-rolls. it was a regular sized, 800 inch roll or some such.

so i went to walgreens, where they had more kinds of packing tape than I cared to count. Suffice it to say, it was more than two. The cheapest: $2.99. approved by the usps for mailing. sounds perfect for me.
