Like everything else in life, the rates of various greeting cards are increasing leaps and bounds. The store owner of one such shop was often receiving complaints about increasing cost of the cards. But he never took these complaints seriously until one day he faced a situation he had not bargained for.
Customer: “Have you any card for someone who is about to turn a hundred?”
Owner: “Sure do.”
The owner led the customer to the related card stand and pointed at the cards: “They are for centurions.”
The customer selected one card, looked at the price printed on the reverse and asked: “If he doesn’t last for a week and make it, will you accept this back?”
