What Now? Funeral? ... again?

It is a gorgeous Fall day in the Twin Cities. Sunny, 54-degrees warm, and harmony and joy everywhere!
I've been out and about taking care of a few things like buying my to-go ethnic (Ethiopian) lunch, and getting gas for my car.
Driving home, I happen to be following one of those omnipresent delivery trucks - this one belonged to a local furniture store called Dock 86. I was, as usual, in my normal state of trance when I read the store's logo and catchy slogan. It said: "Dock 86 - Never pay full price for furniture again!"
I was befuddled, I could not believe what I read! My old eyes were telling me outrageous, shocking lies again. My brain had just registered: Never pay full price for funeral again!
Of-course, an immediate double-take corrected the near-discombobulation, and I have since recovered my composure. Imagine the thought of your own repeated final trips to the funeral home! God forbid!
