A Cleaning Tip
 

So did you buy these umbrella bags or did you 'borrow' them from the store?

They're out on a long term loan Bronko.

I equate them to toilet paper in the store's restroom. It's intended for one thing, but you can use it for something else, like blowing your nose or wiping off your shoes. I don't think the store minds much either way. :D

we just have mats for knocking the snow off our shoes... never seen them in a store.

Really? Just about every shopping center and major grocery store use them around here. They're on portable stands that the stores put at the door whenever it rains and are free for the taking.

Maybe it's because our average annual rainfall is more than twice that of Glidden, WI.
