pricing: Rational or Not...Price is Fueling Buyer's Motivation - 10/17/08 10:47 AM

I had two choices ahead of me, the first station(and the one easier for me to pull into) was all but empty, only one car fueling up.

My mom used to watch Days of Our Lives every afternoon when I would come home from school. Although I haven't watch a Soap Opera for years, I can still here the music and the announcer's voice over "Like Sand through an hour glass....these are the days of our lives"
For many home owners having their property listed may seem as painful as watching grains of sand slip slowly through the hourglass.....day after day living life outside their regular routine; making the beds every day, (yes, some people don't make their bed every day!) keeping the dishes out of the sink, the dog in … (11 comments)
