And a sticker with info a customer knows.

Thursday Morning Riddle: Special Edition

Thursday, May 7th, 2020

Today, I offer two riddles. They have different answers, but you only need to respond once.

Enjoy!

I’m to put down the lid: I’m to shut the front door;
I’m a salesman’s intent; end the day for a store;
I’m to sign for a home; hold discussion no more;
And quotation marks after what’s quoted before.

Who am I?

I’m a shave that is clean; I am not very far;
When you just barely win; quarters tight where you are;
Strong relationships; Fatal Attraction’s big star;
And I’m almost correct, but you win no cigar.

Who am I?

And when effort is great, I’m the stress that is worn.
