Now that’s cheap
A soldier from the Scottish Royal Pipers brought a carefully wrapped package into the dry cleaners.
“Good mornin’, Sergeant”, said the clerk behind the counter. “What can we do for ye today.”
Gingerly undoing the string and the wrapping paper, the sergeant opened the box and carefully removed a used, wet Trojan contraceptive. “I’d like a quotation to have this dry cleaned”, he said.
“Well, Sir, I would have to charge you fifty cents to dry clean it, but you can buy a new package of three for a dollar at the drugstore.”
“I’ll have to let ye know”, said the sergeant.
He returned the next day and said to the clerk, “I explained to the Regiment what ye said and we voted unanimously to have it dry cleaned.”
