    6' Birch Sticks Sold at Whole Foods- This you have to see!!

    What do you guys think about this deal on 6' Birch Poles I found at my local Whole Foods? I could retire early if I could put a stand of these outside my house and get $23 a piece. I don't shop there for groceries, just their lunch bar. It's a quick health meal for less than $8.
