    "The woman is selling the snow in order to buy a
    snowblower."

    If this keeps up she won't need the snowblower.

    Glad you found that. :D

    If the transport truck or whatever doesn't have cooling or insulation, won't the guy have bought 3 bags of... Water?

    Also, if he can't have snow where he lives naturally, what makes him think that he's going to be able to keep it? Won't it melt?

    If he was trying to get his name in the news for his 15 minutes of fame, he was successful. You can't put a price on that!
