Re: Team Numbers in Everyday Places
I also notice other numbers, since it's a pain in the butt to find anything that's $12.93 or the like.
However, I have a story from my days as a Piggly Wiggly cashier. If you don't know, Piggly Wiggly does Greenbax, which is a rewards program. If you buy certain items, it'll let you use Greenbax books stored on your PFC card (as you earn them by using your PFC card) and get it for free (just pay tax). (If you're wondering why the unit is a book, it's because back in the old days customers literally filled books with Greenbax stamps they got at the store, then brought them in. They're still valid, too.)
One night, our coach's wife came through my line, so I was ringing things up. I hit the total button, and the Greenbax dialog came up. Her balance at the time, I kid you not, was 12.93 books.
