Black Owl Posted October 26, 2009 Share #1 Posted October 26, 2009 At the store the other day a gentleman was buying a 24 pack of Pepsi which was on sale for 6.95. In line behind him a young lady had 2 12 packs at $4.95 each. Trying to be helpful, the gentleman told the young lady that buying the 24 pack was much cheaper. She thanked, and then stated that they didn't drink that much Pepsi in a week to make it worth her while to buy the 24 pack. Now, how does one respond to that???? And no, she wasn't blond.

99silver Posted October 27, 2009 Share #5 Posted October 27, 2009 Stopped at a C-store and my father took a bag of 2 for $1.00 peanuts to the register, the clerk said he ( Dad ) would have to buy two because he didn't know how much to charge for just one bag.

BradT Posted October 27, 2009 Share #7 Posted October 27, 2009 Now, how does one respond to that???? Ask her how much she does drink. ? She might have told him she will come back in the middle of the week to buy two more. Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADC Posted October 27, 2009 Share #9 Posted October 27, 2009 I work in a supermarket and I see it all the time,an item will have a sign 3/$1.00 or 4/$1.00 and they will ask how much is it for one I just have to stand there with a" you're kidding right" look on my face before I give them the answer.

hunter 1500 Posted October 27, 2009 Share #15 Posted October 27, 2009 Do you remember the good old days when they could actually count your change back to ya. Most of these kids now a days can't even figure your change in their head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yama Mama Posted October 27, 2009 Share #16 Posted October 27, 2009 Do you remember the good old days when they could actually count your change back to ya. Most of these kids now a days can't even figure your change in their head. [/QUOT That is so true. I may be wrong, but I am not sure they teach the children to do that any more. It sure made it simple to give the correct change back. Of course I blame all the new technology, such as calculators, the new computerized cash registers, and even digital clocks. Kids have become lazy and just assume a machine will do the work for them. I know most kids do not know how to read the clock at school, except when it is time to go home.

BradT Posted October 28, 2009 Share #17 Posted October 28, 2009 another good one is to tell them all you have is out of STATE money, do they accept it. about half don,t. Now that is funny. Wonder if it works for Provinces, So if it's 3 for a dollar, just how much do you charge for just one? A lot of places will charge regular price if you do not purchase the deal. (Corner stores and Zellers). So really Carl how much would you charge for just one ! Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sling Posted October 28, 2009 Share #18 Posted October 28, 2009 She thanked, and then stated that they didn't drink that much Pepsi in a week to make it worth her while to buy the 24 pack. Now, how does one respond to that???? That's almost like going into a pizza joint and ordering a large pizza pie. And when the server asks would you like it sliced into 8 pieces or 6 pieces The customer answers "Cut it into 6 slices----I don't think I could eat 8 slices" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midnite Posted October 28, 2009 Share #19 Posted October 28, 2009 If you really want to screw them up. say your bill is 3.52, give them 5.02 and watch'em squirm. Great place to do this McDonalds!!!!!:stirthepot::stirthepot: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
