Why hello...

This is a blog for my AP ECON class and it is titled "gonnageta5" because I believe in positive thinking. You will acomplish only what you expect from yourself. I am challenging myself in saying that I am going to get a five on the ap exam... since I dont want to be a liar, I better stop typing and go study cause this stuff is hard!!

Maurices

I was shopping at Maurices at JC last weekend and with my purchase i was given a coupon. It was 20% my next purchase if i brought a gas receipt in with me. I thought it was kinda a wierd concept. The cashier (who was really nice and helpful thoughout the visit) told me that they were trying to give people a little bit of a break with the taxes and such. I thought i was nice.. but then again its rewarding people for the inevitable. People drive, why not give them a little perk at the pump. Thats a nice slogan, "a perk at the pump"... i like that.

"Perk at the pump", I like that. If I drove by a gas station that had a slogan like that, I would definitely stop there. Seriously, if I saw any gas station that gave a little reward for buying gas from them, I would stop there. I would stop even if it was like 2 cents off per gallon.
