Good golly I love the holidays, but that's nearly a hundred bucks! To mail five boxes!

Thank god it comes but once a year - I'd go friggin bankrupt.

Actually - a cockney bloke I worked with told me the origin of the term 'quid' does somehow derive from the phrase 'pound of squid' in that funny cockney rhyming slangy thing they do. He explained the whole thing but I can't remember it exactly now.

No kidding.

I used to send stuff to my SO in the UK all the time. Sometimes just sending him a few homemade cookies or treats cost more to send than to make them.
