How much to join the cheap wagon club?

This is club I want to join someday. Is there a limit amount to the purchase price?

$1000 to buy, No limit to restore.

The figures stated above are fresh from an unsavory anatomical region. Please proceed with caution.

I think you get a newsletter quarterly and free tetanus shot every year for free.

I guess it would be sort of a status symbol, sort of like the trunk triangle club, and the 15" bundt club. Nothing of note can come from it, besides the "satisfaction" of having something "special".

Misery loves company? Think of it as a support group. To join the wagon must also be running. I don't suspect they stay "cheap" for very long.

Gee,
I have 2 trunk triangles, can I join that club?
Dont have blunts, so I miss out there.
I signed up for the cheap wagon club, no newsletter yet, could do with the tetanus shot, havent had one for over 10 years. Maybe when I get a newsletter it will explain how all these special benefits are obtained. Maybe the exchange rate between the $A & $US has voided my membership?
Who knows, who cares!!
