An old Hal Roach joke, updated for today. For those who might not know what I’m talking about, Lowe’s and Home Depot are the current equivalent of the hardware store of old.

A man walks into Home Depot and asks someone in an orange apron, "How much are your snow shovels?"

"Twenty dollars," the employee replied.

"Twenty dollars! Lowe’s is selling them for twelve!"

"Well, why didn’t you buy one there?"

"They were out."

"Well, maybe when we’re out of them, we’ll sell them for twelve dollars, too."
