We are the only Ijouse that buys in car loads and case lots for spot cash and sell for spot cash and discount all bills. We are the only house that sells double the amount of gooods of any other house in the county therefore we can afford to sell at a less profit as the more we sell the cheaper we sell. We are the only house that pay no rents but have office rents that pay our taxes.
