Does Something Seem Odd About This???

Last night we got to go out on a date without the kids...Yeah! We have some new friends in our city who are pregnant with their first baby and offered to take care of Morgan and Micah for a few hours so we could enjoy some time alone. And of course we took them up on their offer!

After we ate dinner, we went to a local store to pick up a few groceries and to our surprise we saw some folding chairs which we have actually been wanting to buy because the weather has gotten cooler and its so nice to sit outside at night time. Anyways, when we went to check these chairs out, to our surprise we found out they are from Dick's Sporting Goods in the States!!!
And the other funny thing is that the Dick's price tag read $9.99 but the store price tag was
R.O. 2.5 which converts to $6.50!!! So we just laughed and laughed with the thought that we were buying 4 chairs from Dick's Sporting Goods in the Middle East and saving $3.5 per chair. Does this sound odd to anyone else???

Go Figure! Stay tuned for new stories and discoveries from our city! (And remember this is the same city that does not have 1 American eating place in it)
