What does being on section 8 have to do with anything? Outlander, you are ignorant!
Oh, yeah. I forgot about Rent a Center. I often see their trucks pull up to the section 8 house next door to me.
It appears the business on National 1700 block appears to be 1 of 3. Staples, Sunbirds, Home Carpet Warehouse. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm When will get get the answer to the “thousands of dollars” question??
Actually yes! That is if you take into consideration a rent-a-center t.v. costs market value PLUS up to 30-35% interest. Which would make a stupid t.v. a rather expensive proposition to say the least. It’s seems people are stupid enough to do it because they are still in business.
$1900 TV. Do they still make those?
Just wondering about the PERSON assaulted over the weekend that was sent to HarborView… was it random, should we be worried about our safety?… must have been pretty bad if the victim was sent to HarborView, and sirens reports are starting to have less and less details..like why even waste time writing anything if its gonna say boy no name arrested for possession of unspecified dru..gs a past story
Bucks fly?
