There are three of us, and we do almost all our grocery shopping at Costco. There is some waste, but the quality is better than anything we can get at our local grocery store. For example, the steaks at Costco, which are choice, are $17.99 a pound, and are as good, to my taste, to the prime we buy at $34.99 a pound.

Getting back to books, what I found illogical in the Amazon is Evil, is to offer a totally unskilled job for $12.50 an hour. Yes, it would be hard to raise a family on that, but that is the rate for pickers--you have to be able to read numbers and walk. That is it. No college degree, no work experience, no people skills. Try getting that kind of comp at any other entry job.
