    There are entire belief systems that are
    based on getting rid of desires rather than
    just minimizing or suppressing them. I'm not
    going to be the one to say they're wrong.
    Not really something to be further discussed... ;)
    As for me, my needs are few, and my desires
    equally few but not necessarily the same or
    even compatible.
    Understood... and similar here, though probably not quite as minimal as you.... :)

    But when I want something, it's a dilly.

    The fruit in question is the bags of dried fruit, actually... that is a rather low risk to stock also....
    Even lower, and if they don't sell, the bakery
    can use them to make fruit cake.
    Possibly... some of them might make a very interesting fruitcake... ;)

    American has come out with a new snack: Nakd Berry Delight,
    which is essentially with the exception of 3% contamination
    with raspberries a raw gluten-free dairy-free no added sugar
    fruitcake with cashews, figs, and raisins. Kind of interesting.
    Available only in first class, coach getting Biscoffs (good but
    unhealthy by anyone's standards) or pretzels (bad and unhealty).

    A special purchase, where stock is limited, might be legal, at least
    some places....
    Opening the door to more shenanigans. A state
    with strong consumer laws won't allow that
    sort of thing to go unchallenged.
    Perhaps.... I noted today in a BJ's coupon flyer I picked up in store
    that the coupons were "valid only 11/19/18 - 12/5/18 while supplies
    last" and in the fine print on the back, "Availability, selection and
    pricing may vary by Club or BJs.com. Items available only while supplies last." No waffles as to that not applying in some states....

    That looks eminently fightable, especially given that
    silence (as they don't want to trumpet out the eceptions).

    And how often obtainable...?

    Indeed interesting...

    Another perk of your exalted status.... ;)

    That looks eminently fightable, especially given that

    I suspect they've researched it out, and made it relatively
    unfightable... :) Maybe you can research that further.....
