A rather large lady picked up several items at a discount store. When she reached the check-out, she learned that one of her items had no price tag on it. Imagine her embarrassment when the checker got on the intercom and boomed out for all the store to hear: "PRICE CHECK ON LANE 12, TAMPAX, SUPERSIZE."
:'(
If that wasn't bad enough, somebody at the rear of the store misunderstood the word "tampax" for "THUMBTACKS". In a business-like tone, a voice boomed back over the intercom:
"DO YOU WANT THE KIND YOU PUSH IN WITH YOUR THUMB OR THE KIND YOU POUND IN WITH A HAMMER"?
