    Should SBR close the SBR store for good???
    I think so.

    Is there any reason to leave up a vase of flowers for 1,200 pts, you know no one is buying that and will take 200$ cash at a sportsbook instead?

    Is there any reason to leave up the 3 hr maid service for 2813 pts, when they can get around 500$.. i can get a 3 HR maid here to my house in 30 min from craigslist for 40$, and they'll be happy..

    The only thing i can see people still buying is pizza, cause gamblers get hungry and have nothing in the fridge and a Free play won't fill their hunger, so they order pizza.

    But i think Billy Boy should remove the pizza ASAP.. billy, it's bad enough gamblers don't get enough exercise and live an unhealthy life, you want to encourage us now to eat greasy pizza? billy, instead of pizza, put up some healthy food.. salads, rice, salmon.. NOT PIZZA.. billy boy, you are going to kill us here..Every poster here will gain 30 lbs this year cause of pizza and we'll end up dead..

    Why would anyone buy anything else from this store when they can get actual cash, and it's cash to gamble with, and we have 400 degenerate gamblers here.


    Boys, is it time to eliminate that store and just have pts for gambling cash ONLY.. i bet we will get way more new posters now at sbr if people posted to get real $$ to gamble with.


    Billy boy, get rid of that store, it is no longer useful.. post for cash from now on.

    Do you boys agree with me? post for cash.. and instead of saying how many pts we have.. just say how many $$$ we have.. instead of 349 pts.. it should say...349$

    GET RID OF THAT STORE.. NO ONE WILL BUY ANYTHING ANYMORE.. WE WANT CASH.. WE WANT CASH..WE WANT CASH.. WE WANT CASH..

      Why not allow people the option to buy what they want Nicky instead of what Nicky wants? Just thinking out loud here.

        Wilbert, i'm sure 99% will agree with me.. wilbert, if you had 1,000 pts, would you take 200$ of gambling money, OR a vase? lol

        wilbert, if you went up to a crack addict and asked her, miss, do you want a vase of flowers, OR 200$ in cash for your crack, what would she take? duhhhh.

        we have 400 crack addicts here (gamblers).. why offer a vase.. when you know everyone here wants cash.

        wilbert, if you have 1,000 pts and it's worth lets say 168$.. instead of your # saying 1,000 pts, it should read..168$..

        sbr will get way way more busy if they do this.. traffic will triple.. and betphoenix and bookmaker will have tons of new customers..

          Prediction: pizza sales decline rapidly

          Barreled in guys will starve before they dont have action on a game. They will buy freeplays not pizza

            But Nicky, does 'posting for pay' always work out for the person? Just guessing there are many sharps here who have their gambling expenses already taken care of and might want a coffee cup or shirt or backpack. Again, I have ot think that the more options we offer, the better.

                When the SBR Sportsbook & Casino opens it will hopefully open the door for some big winners who can get a laptop or something cool.

                    Can I get a discount if i purchase the SBR PINT glasses in six glass lots?

                    Also, will the store have a wider selection in the womens clothing department in the near future?

                    By the way, I highly recommend the SBR CAP and POLO SHIRT.............currently the best outfit in my somewhat limited wardrobe.

                      i agree with the stuff like SBR cap, or SBR hat or SBR shirt.. etc.. things that money can't buy... and food is great to have delivered too. that sometimes is even better than cash because people get hungry.. but i wish they offered more than pizza.. pizza is so unhealthy and fattening and i don't need teh extra calories.. i wish they had SUSHI, pasta, or chinks.. just some variety..

                      but i still think that now that cash is available, the kids here will jump on it first. .why would a kid get a vase for a few thousand pts,when he can have 300$ to bet with..

                                I would prefer sushi over pizza. I agree we need a healthy alternative to the pizza.

                                  sbr is going to kill us with the pizza.. they are bad influences.. johnny boy, do you want us to die or what? it's bad enough us gamblers sit home all day and dont exercise, you want us all to die now.. our cholesterol is going to sky rocket now.. johnny boy, remove the pizza, or at least make it a whole grain pizza or vegetarian pizza ONLY..

                                  also, it would be great if we can have choices of restuarants.. like 125 pts for large pizza.. 250 pts for a dinner for 2 from a chinky restaurant...200 pts for 18 pcs of sushi.. 125 pts for a souvlaki plate.. 75 pts for a hamburger/fry/coke..etc.

                                  just give us a big food menu to choose from..that woudl be great..

                                  you will sell this great, too, i swear, cause we gamblers are gluttons, we love to eat..especially greasy food during halftime when we are all getting smoked in gamblng. we want to eat away our sorrows.

                                  but overall, even at this, 88% of your pts will go towards free cash, not vases..

                                      The free plays are a great addition. The only thing that I would like from the store is the backpack.

                                      Perhaps a shot/beer glass which I will be ordering shortly.

                                          Nobody will buy the laptops or expensive stuff when you can get cash from a book and then cash it out. I can get $7500 worth of money at Bet Phoenix for the price of the macbook.

                                                i can say no to unheatly food (pizza)

                                                by the way, there's nothing eating a pizza once in a while.

                                                it's just a question of moderation.

PM me when your birthday is because I want to send you those flowers and a basket of healthy fruit. Oh almost forgot, also give me your address!

                                                    I don't think having jpeg images in the store is costing SBR that much, so who cares?

                                                      What would we be eating anyway, instead of pizza?

                                                      SBR providing such or not? Chicken Wings probably or Barbecued something.

                                                      Or waffles or.....all of the above.

                                                      Your theory demands SBR points be viewed as "enabler" in regards to pizza, I just think folks would be eating pizza anyway.

                                                      Options, as many as possible, are always the best option. Fewer options = never an improvement. I appreciate your point about the potential "value" of $ represented instead of points but a vase could have value beyond your ability to grasp, to one living in an area where vases are hard to find....

                                                      Like that koozie thing to Eastern Europe or whatever that was.

                                                      I say the more options the better.

                                                            This is too good to be true

                                                            They give you the money to gamble and put a pizza in front of you to watch the game you bet on

                                                              sbr pizza will still sell great.. people love pizza

                                                              sbr wings, sbr chinky food meals, sbr sushi.... will also sell great.. gamblers love to eat. i just wish we had a big SBR food menu, instead of just pizza..

                                                              sbr caps, hats, shirts.. anything with SBR logo will also sell great cause money can't buy that in stores. and they are cool to have.

                                                              basically anything you can get in stores like IPOD for 4,000 pts will not sell here because people will just take 350$ instead and buy one on sale for 79.99 at wal mart. and use rest of money to gamble.


                                                              i doubt people will buy vases, or flowers, or even tv's now.. cause a tv here that cost 10k points,they can get about 2500$ here and go buy one at best buy on sale, for 899.99, and use rest to gamble.

                                                              sbr might have ruined their sales in the store by 97,8% by announcing free cash at Sportsbooks..
