Perhaps in my later years I will make one last mad dash to fill them ALL with canned goods, lol.<br /><br />I wish I was completely joking. I think there's at least 50% gallows humor here though.Stagflationary Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04568993350246477976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515247115132134144.post-76393722497528214982012-07-16T21:14:24.343-07:002012-07-16T21:14:24.343-07:00BTW, nice stacking job on the foil.
How did you d...BTW, nice stacking job on the foil.<br /><br />How did you decide to amortize the shelving costs? Straight-line per-unit division? By square-footage? Dollar weighted based on item's value?<br /><br />I assume you are planning to sell-off shelves as they empty. Did you account for that in your calculations?AllanFnoreply@blogger.com
