I would use my money to cause CHAOS and CONFUSION!!! [evil]

I would get air time on several local radio stations and announce some insane free giveaways all over town for a limited time.

For example, I would pick an intersection with a gas station on each corner. From 5pm to 6pm on a Friday (rush hour -- hehe!) I would make gasoline FREE at all four stations! But you must fill up your car before the deadline.

Same with movies. Get your ticket to X big-blockbuster at X theater from 30 minutes before until the first trailer hits the screen and it's free. This would take some careful planning to buy out the theater before people start buying advanced tickets.

Or, I would go to a shopping mall with a second story and make it rain dollar bills on one of the hundreds of "busiest shopping days" they keep telling us about. Watch everyone attack each other for a few dollars... People are such fools for money! [Big Grin]

And if any of my actions end up breaking the law somehow, my money would get me out of that, too.

I think that is Sumner's plan, as long as they are not Showcase Cinemas.
