Slug Lines Save Time, Money

It's nice to see NBC4 keeping their news local with the recent headline Slug Lines Save Time, Money.

If you haven't been to pickup lately (yes I'm talking to *you*), then you may not be aware of the recent addition of weekend Slug Lines. They appear shortly after the 10:35am timeframe, with a different colored t in their hand, toeing the sideline waiting to yell "Last Back!"

Question: How to save money?
Answer: Go to pickup at the National Mall; Avoid the Shopping Mall.
Question: How to save time?
Answer: Get to pickup earlier; Skip sideline slug-lines.

As the article states: "Slu[d]ging is like organized...except there's no one organizing it."
