My entrepreneurial son is feeling a bit defeated after several afternoons of standing at the bottom of the driveway. I talk to him about the price of his car wash. I explain that while I know he has his heart set on a twenty dollar bill, people are looking for the bargain car wash and only want to spend about $6 or so. He begrudgingly makes a new sign to reflect the NEW rate - $6. And while he’s at it, I suggest using a marker so drivers could see it better. He goes back to the end of the driveway.
