When you come from the "big city" sometimes the simple/quaint things really make an impression. Such was the case of this fruit/vegetable stand that we went to.

No one there to make sure you paid, just a couple signs and a box to drop the money in.

Yep, and it's getting even rarer. We are going backwards as we go forwards in this world. All culture, civility and sense of community is being lost in the chase for the green and the advance of individualism.

Kimo · 07-28-2006, 10:24 PM

there used to be an old man who sold tomatos like that in my town, he might still do it, but im not sure...

they were the best damn tomatos too!

WWC-Pajio · 07-28-2006, 10:25 PM

....that's weird!! lol

stickyfingerz · 07-28-2006, 10:26 PM

Used to see lots of those in my hometown up in Western P.A. Still are some around. Good old days.

UtahSaints · 07-28-2006, 10:28 PM

OG LennyT · 07-28-2006, 10:34 PM

CamsLord · 07-28-2006, 10:38 PM

Vitasoy · 07-29-2006, 04:45 AM

You don't see those often.

martinsc · 07-29-2006, 04:54 AM

gooddomains · 07-29-2006, 05:46 AM

it works that way at a lot of places around here as well

studiocritic · 07-29-2006, 05:49 AM

there are a lot of those out near where my parents live, in rural ohio.. very cool stuff.

i often wonder if i'd rather live somewhere like that than in plastic OC where i live

The Ghost · 07-29-2006, 05:49 AM

I tried using the honor system for Holloween. Needless to say it didn't go over well.

A couple of kids were good, but there's very little honor with kids and candy.

Deputy Chief Command · 07-29-2006, 05:53 AM

yeah I love those too ! ! ! eating free and all rocks !

DWB · 07-29-2006, 05:53 AM

DamageX · 07-29-2006, 06:29 AM

Manowar · 07-29-2006, 06:42 AM

awesome to know it still exists

Andiz · 07-29-2006, 06:50 AM

wow that's just great to see

pussyluver · 07-29-2006, 06:56 AM

Grewup in Chicago. Saw a bumb take a piss on the fruit in that open air market once. Guess it added to the flavor.

BAKO · 07-29-2006, 07:07 AM

s9ann0 · 07-29-2006, 07:14 AM

did you go on the rob?

seeric · 07-29-2006, 07:16 AM

nice to know there are still some places where people dont burn and pillage for their dinner.

If it lasted more than 15 minutes I think you did well.

IWantU_Jeff · 07-29-2006, 10:54 AM

Dunno if I missed it in a post.. but where in the MidWest was that?

superglam2006 · 07-31-2006, 07:57 AM

there's a store like that here, I think it's nice, promotes honesty... I guess it's more humiliating to know that we're fooling ourselves than we're fooling others

The Heron · 07-31-2006, 08:48 AM

I've got lots of farmers in my extended family, they still do that too.
For the most part, people that buy fruit and veggies from road stands aren't the type that would steal anyhow.

Aneros Josh · 07-31-2006, 08:52 AM

thieves shop at supermarkets

RayBonga · 07-31-2006, 08:52 AM

400 bucks for watermelon ?

Those guys are crazy

dunefield · 07-31-2006, 08:54 AM

They do that alot in Asia... Pity some parts of the world aren't so honest...

StuartD · 07-31-2006, 08:55 AM

The only problem with the honor system is how little honor there is in the system.

most of the parts of the world are not honest. For example you will never dare to do such thing in Russia.

WebairGerard · 07-31-2006, 10:31 AM

very cool. I see a few of those "honor system" farm stands in upstate NY & VT too.

divinity · 07-31-2006, 08:54 PM

Theoretically, people see money on the counter, and no one around, they think they're being watched.

Honesty through paranoia.

The Adult Broker · 07-31-2006, 09:54 PM

too bad the rest of the world doesn't live by the honor system, including most of our own country.

r-c-e · 07-31-2006, 10:34 PM

A lot of the farmers have honour system stores at the front of their farms here. It pays for their beer, we get cheap vegies, everyone wins!

sniperwolf · 07-31-2006, 10:36 PM

wow.. just like in the movies... where is that? the village?

czarina · 07-31-2006, 10:38 PM

were the pictures taken as evidence, in case they tried to prosecute you?

pornguy · 07-31-2006, 10:53 PM

And I noticed that it was monopoly money that he put in.
