Oh Say Can You See: 61 Stars?


Dollar Tree Stores have been selling American Flags with 61 stars! All this, just in time for Independence Day! Actually, the flags were made in China. Dollar Tree offered a weak response saying that the "flags" were not flags, but "Patriotic Banners!"

Nope, it's a flag, alright. Somebody screwed up, that's all. This is an ironic little example of outsourcing gone bad. I don't feel offended, I also don't feel... like shopping at Dollar Tree.

Happy 4th, everybody!
