They call themselves Brain Drain&#8217;D and each purchase costs a percentage of the buyer&#8217;s brain&#8230; but what if that isn&#8217;t just a cutesy gimmick?<\/p>\n<p>Will Wesley spend more than Alice&#8217;s brain can handle?her?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/1606395\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Find it on Smashwords now!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0DDVSPTZN\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Now On Amazon!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a new store coming to town, and Alice has early access&#8230; but this store may just drain something much more important than a bank account with every purchase made. Will Alice be left empty, or full in only the most perverse way?<\/p>\n<p>Wesley has never had much interest in shopping, especially the kind of shopping that actually requires him to leave his somewhat depressing home. But his birthday is coming up soon and when his brainy, financially confident daughter Alice insists on a shopping day just for him, he obviously relents.<\/p>\n<p>Still, on their way into the shopping mall, Wesley is still confused by nearly everything Alice has told him about the place. Supposedly it&#8217;s nearly the opposite of most retailers, a store that used to only do business and sales online only, just now venturing into a supposedly ultra-modern variation of a brick-and-mortar store location.<\/p>\n<p>Since many of the mall stores have been empty, they bought up the location in a darkened corner of this old shopping mall and are to be opening to the public soon. In the meantime, Alice, who in her several years since graduating college with a finance and economics degree has found much success with a company that invests in developing businesses&#8230; has received a free credit account with the new business.<\/p>\n<p>Since she was told they can try out the new business, an actual store that functions more like a high-tech vending machine, Alice intends to use all her available credit given by the business on gifts to hopefully make her father feel like a man again, after her bitch of a mother emasculated him, divorced him, and generally left Wesley stuck in his depressing place, wasting away.<\/p>\n<p>But as much as Alice might assume she knows about this fancy new brick-and-mortar business model, neither of them could ever imagine the twisted methods by which Brain Drain&#8217;D operates.<\/p>\n<p>She explains to him that the modern silver elevator doors at the front of the store only open once someone has been scanned and then they have processed their account card, like the ones she was given along with all in her company who invested and helped this Brain Drain&#8217;D get off the concept page and into the local mall. Only then, do the doors open and allow shoppers to enter. Inside there will be countless aisle after aisle with every product imaginable, various colored labels on the products, the color corresponding to how expensive it is, how much of their available credit it will drain.<\/p>\n<p>But perhaps the most unique idea, the concept she figures is just their gimmick being named Brain Drain&#8217;D is that each purchase costs a percentage of the buyer&#8217;s brain. And when Alice and Wesley are finally in that store, Wesley seeing so many amazing products from clothing to electronics and more&#8230; will he actually start buying, gathering together all the stuff a man could ever want? And what will all that stuff end up costing him as Alice processes the payments on the way out the door?<\/p>\n<p>When Wesley finds an aisle with adult toys, specifically customized dolls, will his curiosity and plain old horniness get the best of him? And will the cost of one of those dolls pushing past Alice&#8217;s available brain credit get the best of her too in one way or another?<\/p>\n<p>They first offered every enhancement a person could want online, and now the doors are about to open for a real-life store location, but is this one store where blowing the budget blows the buyer&#8217;s mind? Is this a store where impulse buys cause impulsive actions? And will Wesley truly feel like a man again at a cost he never would have dreamed of?<\/p>\n<p>Hot Shots visits the brick-and-mortar store of the future, where buying anything is easy, and an empty wallet is the last thing someone needs to worry about.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/1606395\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Find it on Smashwords now!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0DDVSPTZN\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Now On Amazon!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Coming next&#8230; That&#8217;s a Hot sale&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Alice takes her depressed and lonely father Wesley to the mall close to his birthday, planning to surprise him with a shopping day just for him, neither of them could ever imagine the consequences of buying from the new brick-and-mortar store called Brain Drain&#8217;D.
