This little email from an apoplectic-sounding Jimmy John’s delivery guy just popped into our inbox and we felt the need to share it with you, our readers. The moral? Don’t buy overpriced chips.

I work at jimmy john’s, delivering.. and there’s something I just don’t get. Why in the world, anyone… ANYONE.. would pay what they charge for potato chips.
Today I’m delivering some platters to [redacted].. they ordered 30 bags of chips, you know.. the small ones.. so i decide to figure it out.. 30 x 2.125 ounces.. roughly 64 ounces of chips.. how much did they pay for them? $52.50!!!?!?!??!?!?!!?!?!! for the chips alone.. WWHWHHYYYYYYYY????? that’s insanity.. anything would be better than paying that.. it’s like they found a way to charge 10 times what something should cost and got away with it.
that’s all.. tell people not to buy chips..
