    This is more of an "overheard" than a sighting.

    We often have free flowers and plants. These are cut flowers and potted plants that are in truly sad shape. I have taken home a couple and brought them back to life (by the simple application of some H2O). But they are usually set out on Thursdays, and not every Thursday, because of course we don't have plants and cut flowers that are on their last legs every single week.

    So here comes Customer to ask Coworker where the free flowers are.

    CW: "We don't have any right now."

    Customer: "You always have them! They're always [in clothing section]."

    CW: "Um, no. We only have them sometimes and when we do they are always up here by the registers."

    Customer: *lather rinse repeat*

    I don't know how long this went on, or whether CW ever managed to convince Customer that (a) we only have free flowers occasionally, and (b) they are NOT in the clothing section.
