Brotha Hustle: "Miss Doodle Mae, spokeswoman, part-time cashier and security guard at Jojo's Discount Dollar Store, is on full-time security duty during the Christmas holiday season. She asked me to fill in for her to tell you about Jojo's Discount Dollar Store's 'I'll Be Broke This Christmas' sale.
"While the holiday bells are ring-a-linging and the Third Alternate Ghetto Christmas Carol Choir is sing-a-linging, poor people's mood is quite somber. Folk are so poor they don't know what to do anymore except hold on to their last nickels, dimes and pennies. And the rich folk have tightened their grip and become frugal with their wealth. I wonder why? Only God knows!
"In the meantime, Jojo and his small, temporary holiday staff want to lift the spirits of the financially challenged with affordable refurbished gifts for Christmas.
"My technologically savvy Aunt Tee Tee just rebuilt and refurbished 100 laptop and desktop computers with Wi Fi and Bluetooth technology. They are affordable and on sale at Jojo's.
"Also, Aunt Tee Tee's Research and Development Team has created some affordable electronic toys for the kids. They turned old-school joysticks into a modern day, generic Wiiaka Gee Wee! And don't forget the G-Boxaka the generic X-Box.
"And for poor folksyoung and oldwho want a little sole in their holiday, we present the new 'Size 10 Shoes Throw and Boot Toss' game (picture of a politician or soon-to-be former president sold separately.)
"Happy and affordable holiday shopping!
