I carpool with an arms dealer?

This morning I sent my carpooler a link to this blog post on the joys of owning Potato Guns (and how they can bring your family closer together!). Next thing I knew he was getting a big group order together. Ultimately everyone on both of our teams bought at least one. I'm buying eight.

Potato Guns are all sold out on Amazon.com but are still available from other sources. Collectively we ordered 80 potato guns. Factoring in the cost of UPS Ground Shipping and volume discounts, the per unit cost was only $1.28 each.

Time to shop around for a ten or twenty pound bag of ammunition...
