She told the pharmacist that this was the last time she would ever enter a Walgreens again. She said whe won't spend her money in a place that evades it's taxes and let's everyone else pick up their tab.

The pharmacist just kinda chirped that there was good and bad in everything. The wife replied, "Name something good".
