Leggo my almonds!

[TheSnakeLady]

I was in PriceCo with my mom the other night, picking up some food items. We walked by one of the many sample-vendors (selling some sort of nutribar) on our way to the checkout, and she notices a bag of sliced almonds in the cart.

Sucky Vendor (SV): *grabs bag of sliced almonds* Oh I love these. They're good on salads.

Me: Uh, yeah, they're nice. *holds hand out and waits for her to return the almonds*

SV: I sometimes sit in front of the TV and eat them while watching my shows.

Me: *still waiting* Well, they're a few aisles thataway if you want some.

SV: They're good on salads.

Me: *still waiting* That's nice. I'm going to use them for baking.

SV: I like munching on them while watching TV.

Me: ... That's nice.

SV: *finally hands the bag back*


I dunno if she was lonely or what, but she was fixated on the almonds and kept repeating herself. I was about ready to go back to the aisle and get a new bag just to get away from her.

I hate it when someone grabs my nutsack in the store...usually.

If you are using the name "PriceCo" as a euphemism for the club-store that used to be owned by Saul Price, but merged with the Cost company, I know the company that does those demos. Those people are part-time minimum wage earners. Sometimes not the cream of society....

(That's the same company that totally changed my life. Gave me carpal tunnel, they did they did.)

No, no, no, nuh-uh. Don't give in to the sucky. You did just right.
