I love a market economy

Speaking of my buddy Jordan (read the previous post):

During lunch we made a stop at Target because Jordan needed a coffee pot for his camper at his hunting lease. He bought a 12-cup coffee maker for seven dollars. I couldn't believe that you could buy a 12-cup coffee maker for less than ten bucks after tax, title, and license!? I was shocked. Jordan objected to my surprise. According to Jordan it's more shocking that you can buy a coffee maker for over $100 at Williams-Sonoma.

We're both surprised; we're just surprised at different ends of the coffee maker spectrum. I love the U.S.A. you can buy a coffee maker for less than ten bucks or over one hundred bucks.
