People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No bullying or international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.

I assume it's some kind Australian slang? Or perhaps maybe some kind of slang from one of the deep Yankee states like Maine, or somewhere up in Canada.

"they're" is "throw" (possibly an autocorrect error)

Translation of idiom: You should offer a discount for the customer who's purchasing in large quantities. Not charge more per item than for a single purchase.
