Overheard while I was shopping last night …
“Mom, you are in that lady’s way.”
“No, I’m not. She’s helping me find a card.”
“Mom, this isn’t Hallmark. What kind of card are you looking for?”
“I want one that says, ‘To my granddaughter and her new husband on their first Christmas.’”
“Mom”
“What?”
“Nevermind”
***********
“How can you tell what size these are?” asked a man looking at pajamas.
“On the tag,” replied the woman next to him, an apparent stranger.
“But how can you tell what size fits what?”
“Well, I’m a small,” she said.
“Oh,” he said, quickly putting the pair back, “I think I need a medium or maybe a large.”
“Don’t buy her a large,” she said, looking him squarely in the eye. “Just save your receipt. If she needs to take it back, she can.”
Suddenly it hit him, “Ahhhh, medium it is.”
*******
“What is she – a toddler or a baby?”
******
“I don’t want to get them any junk. They will just tear it up and throw it away! Let’s get them a game table. They can’t throw that away.”

Haha. Never buy a large unless you are completely positive she is an XXL. Even then, medium is safer!
Merry Christmas!!
