The worst wheel of the cart makes the most noise.

I noticed, when I taught elementary school, how true the squeaky wheel thing is, and how endearing squeaky wheels can be! Because when you're being a squeaky wheel, you're also really letting people know who you are.

A careful inspection showed them that, even if they succeeded in righting it by themselves, the cart would travel no longer. The axles were in a hopeless state, and the missing wheel was shattered into pieces.

The wheel that squeaks the loudest is the one that gets the grease.

You know, I lose patience really easily; I'd rather shop in the grocery store than in the department store. I can pick an apple like nobody's business.

I think it is bad luck to put shoes on a table or walk under ladders.

I get a special joy in knowing people feel comfortable if they see me in Wal-Mart or in a no-frills section trying to get something on a discount.

The most frustrating thing is that I want to always buy the best thing, the thing that does the most stuff.

Bad shopping habits die hard.
