Electrocuted by a running jacket

On the contrary! The object was reduced from 40 quid rrp to 25 quid,which is still a lot of money for a bit of plastic sheeting with a designer name on it!

You can get a few hundred bin liners for £25.

The wierdest things seem to happen at TJ Maxx. (I don't know why they call it TJ Maxx over here) Just odd coincidences and meeting people I haven't seen for years and such. But that electrical thing takes the cake.

They call it TK Maxx over her so it didn't get confused with TJ Hughes.

Death by electrocution was just another way Edison, a proponent of Direct Current, tried to discredit the AC current of Westinghouse and Tesla. Last thing I want to do is face an electric chair called "Old Faithful". Sounds so reliable. And Final.
