At Pause And Browse, we sell/sold (they're probably on clearance today) some cheap New Years "party kits" with hats, leis, horns and tinsel.
It was busy yesterday but not insane (chaos in a good way, everyone seemed in a good mood). SM was on register, which rarely happens; I got freed up just when he opened the register so I dart over to bag on that lane. He scans one of the kits, and the scanner pops up with "Is customer over 16?"
Bwuh? I can see that specific age warning for something containing silly string, any aerosol or sharpies, but this was none of the above. Customer actually scrutinized the box for a good minute trying to figure out what tripped the warning. They were cool about it though.
...on a related note, I got that age warning when trying to buy a Pokemon game of all things once (employee was as confused as I was)
