  5. - Miss Marie - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:31 am:

    Is this real money? I’ve never seen bills so low before. Does money really come in ones?


  6. - Come on man! - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:31 am:

    Rauner: Ok, that is 14 dollars for a t-shirt and put the MAP grants on the my tab.


  7. - Oswego Willy - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:31 am:

    “You guys have a nice little store here. Shame if somethin’ happened to it… “


  8. - Huh? - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:32 am:

    This guy says he is the governor, but he isn’t dress in wrinkled pants, plaid shirt and is wearing a tie. Where is my pen to check for counterfeit bills.


  9. - Name Withheld - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:32 am:

    “And gimmee a Goldfish as well. I love those crackers.”


  10. - Huh? - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:33 am:

    Since when does a billionaire handle cash. Where is that counterfeit pen again?

    “And 3 makes 20. You now have your state support for the 16-17 school year. Spend wisely!”


  12. - Magic carpet ride - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:34 am:

    I make a million a week how much do you make here.
    ——hmmm thats all?


  13. - Annonn'' - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:34 am:

    “IS this cash from the same foundation fundin’ IPI and BGA or some other scam?”


  14. - Anon221 - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:35 am:

    Student- “So… I give you the money, and you’ll turn it around for me???”

    Rauner- “Yep. Trust me. Nuthin’ to worry about. By the way, what out-of-state school did you pick?”


  15. - Huh? - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:35 am:

    Are you really the governor? You’re dressed to nice to be the governor. Le’me see some ID.


  16. - Huh? - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:38 am:

    People in the background whispering, “I wish he would stop treating the State budget like it was his own fat wallet. What a tight wad.”


  17. - Hi Maze - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:41 am:

    So if I pay you now, I can choose who wears the jacket later, right?


  18. - Huh? - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:42 am:

    Now that you know how to run a cash register, you have all the education and training you need for a life time career at the burger joint of your choice. So drop out and get a job, become a useful member of society rather than suffer under the crushing student debt that you will have if you decide to go to college.


  19. - Magic carpet ride - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:43 am:

    That cash will end up in my bank anyway. I own ten banks you know.


  20. - 47th Ward - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:45 am:

    Don’t forget my receipt. Someday the state will have a budget and I’ll want to get this $3 back.

  22. - Thoughts Matter - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:52 am:

    That school I was at last week that didn’t have textbooks could really use a spirit store like this.


  23. - A guy - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:52 am:

    Pickin’ up a windbreaker and matching bag of cheetoes for a big supporter of mine in Oswego.


  24. - archimedes - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:55 am:

    Hmmm… Orange really isn’t my color, but it kind of goes with the Governor Office in Illinois…


  25. - 47th Ward - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 10:55 am:

    I don’t tip because society says I have to. All right, if someone deserves a tip, if they really put forth an effort, I’ll give them something a little something extra. But this tipping automatically, it’s for the birds. As far as I’m concerned, they’re just doing their job.

    On a semi-related note - there is a group of protesters outside the 4th street gate to the Governor’s mansion.


  29. - Anon - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 11:15 am:

    Governor, should you be in Springfield in case Speaker Madigan would like to meet today?


  30. - Mama - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 11:30 am:

    I’m helping the schools.

  33. - Dread Pirate Roberts - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 11:50 am:

    In a surprising turn of events, Governor Rauner asks student to pay him to wear school gear.


  34. - Vote Quimby! - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 11:53 am:

    Governor Rauner finds something to wear underneath his long-dormant Carhartt jacket while hunting.


  35. - Ryan - Tuesday, Apr 5, 16 @ 12:08 pm:
