I would wait til someone bought a big screen.

Then I would loot it. Err, find it.

Then buy food.

Then eat while watching tv back at my secluded pile of rubble and e. coli infested sewage flood pond.

Update:

A customer of ours in Houston who owns a jewelry store told us that he had to stock a ton of big 10K gold hollow hoop earrings and cheap 10K watches because these "victims" are now buying gold jewelry with their $2K debit cards.... Awesome.

Well, at least they\'re stepping up to the pump and being responsible...it\'s sort of like that \'reparations\' skit on the chappelle show...

Don\'t they have a euphemism for being that kind of rich? :rolleyes:

Subject: Hurricane Relief Debit Cards accepted EVERYWHERE!

Lavish tastes of card-carrying lowlifes

Profiteering ghouls have been using debit cards distributed in the wake of Hurricane Katrina - intended to buy essentials for evacuated families - in luxury-goods stores as far away as Atlanta.

"We\'ve seen three of the cards," said a senior employee of the Louis Vuitton store at the Lenox Square Mall in affluent Buckhead, who asked not to be named. "Two I\'m certain have purchased; one actually asked if she could use it in the store. This has been since Saturday."

The distinctive white cards were distributed by the Red Cross and the Federal Emergency Management Agency and carry a value of up to $2,000.

"It doesn\'t say anything on the card other than alcohol, tobacco and firearms cannot be purchased with it," the store employee told me. "There\'s nothing legally that prevents us from taking it, unfortunately. Other than morally, it\'s wrong."

The source told me that the two women who had made purchases with the card each bought a signature monogrammed Louis Vuitton handbag in the $800 range.

"They didn\'t look destitute by any stretch. You would never have said, \'They must be one of the evacuees.\' … The one that I dealt with yesterday was 20. She\'ll be 21 next month." The source described the reaction of other store-keepers in the mall - which includes luxury brands Ferragamo, Burberry, Judith Leiber and Neiman Marcus - as "outrage."

"It doesn\'t say anywhere on there, but it would have to be a good amount to be shopping in here," the source said with a dark chuckle.
