IDIOTIC Sales Policies…. and LAZY sales People
So, I am hoping you’ll excuse my ranting if I promise (this time) to point out and expose the ignorance we are all up against as consumers … and the opportunity it offers all of us as business owners. Yep – this time… I am going to point fingers. =) This past weekend, my sister-n-law

So, Where are your best pills?
Two weeks ago, I visited a MAX MUSCLE store with my husband who wants to “bulk up” a bit. While I am struggling to lose weight, he struggles to put it on.
