I work in a convenience store/gas station. Per store policy we card on lighters and matches (which are free) as well as tobacco. Anyone who looks like they're under 27 has to show ID.
Me: Hello
SC: (puts a pack of condoms on the counter)
Me: 3.99 plus tax, Anything else?
SC: A lighter (takes lighter from display and puts on counter)
Me: Sure, can I see your ID?
SC: What? It's a just a lighter.
Me: It's store policy.
SC: You're kidding me? (fumbles around for ID) But I'm 21.
Me: So am I, I need ID if look under 27.
SC: But it's just a lighter! I'm need to light candles.
Me: Sorry, I need to see ID.
SC: Fine, just give me matches.
Me: I need ID for those too. Anything that can light tobacco.
SC: I told you, I'm just lighting cangles!
Me: That doesn't matter, I still need ID.
SC: Fine. (Walks out)
Of course that's not nearly as funny as the kid who got upset because I carded him for cigars.
