Answer: TOOK CREDIT FOR IT
(Groan all you want, this is a good stinky pun! It’s a good thing that I was able to see TOOK right off the bat, or else I might have struggled with today’s answer.
None of today’s clue words are new, so ralis95 can take the day off. However, all of the jumbles appear to be new. I – once again – had the most trouble getting “bisect”. It’s not the most common word, in my vocabulary. The word “floppy” spells out in alphabetical order. The answer letter layout was an excellent jumble too.
Great Jeff Knurek cartoon! Kids today, I’ll tell ya! I’m kinda surprised to see them actually shopping in a brick and mortar store. They seem to like to do all their shopping on-line these days. It’s the main reason why stores like Sears and JC Penney are hitting the skids. Damn shame. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

Define was my hard word for the day, but that was more because I didn’t spend a lot of time on the puzzle. I normally don’t do them as Sunday has a lot going on and sometimes the words are tougher. Still, if I get enough of them, I’ll spend a bit more time. Because I got the answer quickly, I was lazy and backed into Define. 😀
