Okay, I knew the minute a year ago when they said that sales were down becasue of the atkins diet it was "spin control" time...
Now they are looking into their accounting practices...and they are under investigation...
I just had to say I told you so...even though I didn't tell anyone on here...same thing...

If they audit my records, they just might find the salon's missing funds have gone to buying Krispy Kreme's....at the Winn-Dixie store!!
