Wife response : "Cat litter and WD40 soak up oil and you can buy it in 40lb packages at Costco and 3 packs of WD40. Al Gore claims to have invented the internet so Im not buying that BS on his environment soap box. We need some god damn curtains and all you think about is your damn car."

"Group Buy" is fast becoming a curse word at my house. I know there are monitary benfits to joining them, but I don't dare use that phrase with my wife anymore...
