Space Case
The crazy old lady came back today. She was still wearing her safari hat and also still pulling her suitcase. This time she was intent on having a sparkling orange beverage. I told her she had two options:
1) SanPellegrino sparkling Orange
2) Orange Italian Soda
After I announced the options, she took another 5 minutes to discuss these options and this is how it went:
Bernice: I really want something sparkling and orange
me: Well you can have a sparkling orange beverage in a can or I can make you an Italian Soda
Bernice: How much will the can cost?
me: With tax $2.48
Bernice: How much will the soda cost?
me: With tax $2.59. It's only a bit of difference so it just depends on what you want
Bernice: Are they sparkling?
me: Yes (I thought that was one of the only two requirements)
Bernice: Okay so they are carbonated?
me: yes
Bernice: They are sparkling you say?
me: Yes, sparkling
Bernice: They are both Orange?
me: Yes they are both Orange
Bernice: And it's sparkling?
me: Yes
Bernice: How much for the can?
me: $2.48
Bernice: How much is the other one?
me: $2.59
Bernice: How big is the Italian Soda
me: That's the price for a 12ounce
Bernice: How much is in the can?
me: I don't know. You can see right there
Bernice: I guess I will have the can
me: Nice decision
Then she proceeded to walk out without collecting her sparkling orange drink. I think she needs help or she needs a boyfriend. I guess I better quickly get her that shirt.
