GROCERIES
or art?
Nothing comes between me and the grocery budget. If faced with a choice EVERY other bill will be late, if need be, before I will cut my grocery budget. But every rule has an exception. I would mortgage my dog to buy art. The biggest art collectors I know are artists. They understand the love of a piece of artwork that outweighs the ability to pay–even for groceries. This next Call is a very inexpensive way for you to collect a little piece of work of your own. Don’t miss this chance…
