I couldn't resist adding this postscript to the Easy Button story after my last visit to Staples!

i still don't understand what the easy button is supposed to do...nothing right? but why are they selling something that has no purpose?

I haven't had any huge problems at Staples where I live, but that type of store - the mega retail crap temple - seems to universally have the oft-repeated motto, "Manager to the front - I need the key."

What's with this magical key, and why can't they give me the labeled or advertised price without the key? And why does even the manager use mysterious retail speak like SKU, POS and "key"? I think it's all to make the customer feel dumb. I hate those stores.
