    So am I allowed to call Luann an idiot yet? Because she and her friends just did something monumentally stupid, and at this point it really is a pattern of behavior for Luann.

    Are we actually to believe that the 3 girls just shelled out at least $190, plus possible tax?

    ( “…5% off a purchase of $200 or more…” )

    People who are focusing on her classic three card monty, or figure out which cup the bean is con, are totally missing the con here. By distracting the gullible, even the skeptical, into believing they are getting a deal, they spend money they never had intended. This is exactly what has happened here; she appeals to the belief they are getting a deal to reach into their pockets to get probably 300 to 400 dollars from the three rubes. She is a con artist. Not to far from so many scams that make up capitalism. Skirts the edges of the law, but not quite illegal. Geez, and some of you are trying to figure out the math. Don’t go to an Ann Eiffel show in Luannverse, although at least it would only be comic money you would be losing (lol).

    Let me explain this in shorthand; she is a classic grifter. Les is learning from his mom the skill involved in being a grifter. He is learning from a master. Will he become one? Well in the last frame he is complimenting her, and she is thanking him. Saturday, we now know that Ann is a grifter, and she is training her son to be one as well. Her uncle want to marry the widower, Berger. Gunther’s mom. Figure out the plot lines that might engender.

    Some weeks back, Les was responding positively to friendship from Nancy, Pru, and the Fuse staff in general. He then looked pained at the thought of Ann doing lingerie shows there. He’s been having reservations about Ann ever since, and still does. His expression today is not approval. It’s considerable doubts.

    A bit of an anti-climax! No provocative lingerie on show other than a rather ordinary looking white slip, and no underwear modelling.

    On this topic I’ve been told that ‘sexy’ lingerie is designed and produced for the benefit of men, and that women aren’t really interested in it. Possibly some of the female contributors here would care to comment?

    Just to clear a few things up:

    1. The… “free” …fragrance is worth $75, only because somebody into collecting antique vials of used rain water offered that much, one time. And because the government Bureau of the Census, Sub-Sub department of preventing abuses, located within the Sub Department of Rain Water (found under Water, of course) offered a Reward of $74.99 to anyone for information. Fortunately for Ann, the mysterious character offered a penny more.

    -

    2. The 5% off of $200+ (about $10) is basically just taking off the sales tax (she saved money/taxes by meeting the warehousing/supply/purchases/inventory, uh, representative at Mr. Gray’s old (?) spot in Vegas ( =a chance meeting, at the Plinko history museum), next to the Beef processing warehouse/Yahtzee Tournament stablishment complex, known as “Slice And Dice™”.

    -

    3. Who ever actually wins those $1,000 survey/sweepstakes promotions? Please tell me. I’d really like to know!…only so I can stop saving all those store receipts with the promotion “details” on them…

    It will be interesting to see if any of the girls really wear this stuff and how long it lasts after a few washings. Also can’t wait to hear Luann mention Ann’s name to Brad or TJ. If that ever happens. I’m amazed that interaction hasn’t happened already with TJ at the Fuze. The other shoe will drop at some point. And a drawing for $1000? Really?

    Everybody RE-LAX. So Far Annie hasn’t done anything that’s not done at Used Car Dealerships all over the US of A. Yet, Nobody is gathering Tar and Feathers and going after “them.” And don’t forget, Old Smiley used to pull this kinda stuff all the time. Remember when He “Up Sold” to Ox at Weenie World? Yet HE is Considered a “Hero.” Where were the Howls of “Outrage” then?

    But the thing that EVERYBODY is Missing IS, Ann had to Cover the Window over the Door, because the Very Sight of Ladies Lingerie would drive Her Worthless Punk of a Son, into Savage Lust-Filled, Groping Frenzy. The Woman SHOULD be Applauded for Protecting the Public!!!

    After being married 51 years I can assure you that women like frilly things and shopping with other women. Frilly stuff isn’t always for men. Buying lingerie at a get together like Ann’s isn’t a criminal enterprise. They had fun and enjoyed the company. This stuff is a lot cheaper than tri-power manifolds with original carburetors or stepping up to a 5 or 6 speed tranny. Easy does it, life is short…

    Ever go to a wine tasting? you spend three times as much for the same wine you could find at a discount house for a third of the price; but at least you leave happy, and later, well when reality sets in, you can drown your sorrows with the self same bottle of wine. Not sure how that works with lingerie though.

They were not going to have her called out (by Tara) as a scam artist. It would have been fun though. That said, I am glad that Luann was able to catch herself and exercise some self control.

    So, what if one or two of these young women engenders a little sexual / dating self confidence (which they sorely lack) from stepping into the realm of ’big girl clothes / indulgences. Eg, lingerie. And so what if one decides to step into a more mature relationship w a guy (or girl,) because of that newfound baby step confidence. Are you folks going to cynically quantify the financial cost of their new, grown-up (-ish) relationship? Are you going to say they got into a good couple connection < despite > their frivolity & naïveté in buying fun lingerie instead of practical wool socks or whatever? Jeez Louise, show a little optimism, a little faith in youthful experimentation!!
