Default is the pottery barn full of idiots?

went to a wedding reception this weekend for the brother of my SO. They're mormon which means heathens can't see the actual wedding in the mosque or whatever. Anyways he and his new wife (supposedly mostly the wife) came up with the brilliant idea of buying ~$1500 in decorations from PB for this thing which was about 40 guests. These are things like paper mache plums/grapes, several expensive glass vases, fake snow, nice table runners, etc. As family we were there to set up early, and we were told to untie/clip etc the price tags so they can return the maximum of these items, I would say 90% of them were "salvagable". Will this actually work? And yes this is pretty funny to hear from a chick in a wedding dress wearing holy mormon underwear.

I hate people who do this [censored]. They should seriously consider killing themselves.

A pun like that? Surely you can't be serious...

I am serious. And don't call me Shirley.

Don't fake the funk on a nasty dunk.

PS - curious, what DO mormons drink at a wedding?

It probably will work. They can return a lot of that stuff. I think that's wrong, especially for people who are religious. You should only return it if you didn't use it.

However...
A few years ago my roommates did a little "scam" on Walmart (totally legal, mind you). They purchased car speakers from one store that had the speakers on clearance for 75% off. Then they returned then at other stores where they weren't on clearance and got the money. They justified it because Walmart is evil. And they didn't damage the speakers; didn't even open the boxes. They got about $500.
