But for a mere $20 million they were able to save THOUSANDS of dollars!
I know a family who shop like that.
They will drive 40 miles round trip to save $5 on a $10 item.
To top it off they are very well educated people who you would think
would know better.

That's nothing, Roger.
I know of a pilot that likely spends more than $100
to purchase a $5 hamburger flying his old Debonair.
Welll.. the big difference is one does it for enjoyment (avocation)
The other does it to save money. :-))
How educated does this appear to be? g
Pretty well up the ladder. They say your the expense of your tastes
goes up with education.... the way mine have gone I should have about
4 PHDs....OTOH when I started on the Masters, I found those people and
I speak a different language. Their definition of not much math
required and mine are quite different....and I at least have a minor
in math. I have one in art (photography) too, and I'm one whale of a
lot better artist than I am mathematician.
