A customer rushed up to my register today and handed me two tags of the type on my store's clothing line (yes, I know I work in a grocery store ...)
Thing was ... there was no clothing attached to either one.
I looked up at her in some puzzlement.
"I'm wearing them," she explained.
Me, rather lamely: "Well ... um ... whichever item was attached to this tag is a final sale only."
"Oh, that's the tanktop," she said cheerfully. Over said tanktop she was wearing a brightly coloured gauzy long-sleeved top, which rang in at full price. She added that she was "meeting someone," hence (I guess) the mad dash through the clothing section.
I was dying to ask what she'd been wearing when she walked into the store, but I'm only just beginning my 90 days with the store and I couldn't imagine that would end well ...
