Bubba and Billy Bob, who are both from West Virginia, traveled down to the Outer Banks for a vacation.
While walking along a busy downtown street, they see a sign in a store window which reads, "Suits $5.00 each, Shirts $2.00 each and Trousers $2.50
a pair."
Bubba says to his pal, "Billy Bob, lookee here! We could buy a whole gob of these clothes, take 'em back to West Virginia, sell 'em to all our friends,
and make a fortune fer us."
Bubba continues, "Now when we go in there, don't you say a word, okay? Just let me do the talkin' 'cause if they hear your accent, they might think
we're ignorant, and they won't wanna sell them clothes to us. Now, I'll talk in a slow Carolina drawl so's they won't know".
They go in and Bubba says with his best fake Carolina drawl, "I'll take 50 of them there suits at $5.00 each, 100 of them there shirts at $2.00 each,
and 50 pairs of them there trousers at $2.50 each. I'll just back up my pickup and......"
The owner of the shop interrupts, "Ya'll from West Virginia, ain't you?"
"Well....yeah," says a surprised Bubba. "How come'd you know that?"
The owner replies, "Cause this here's a dry-cleaners."
