It’s the day after Halloween weekend, and so we’re offering large discounts on all the unsold seasonal stuff. A woman is buying pretty much every fake blood capsule we still have for sale.
Me: “Wow, you must really like the fake blood!”
Customer: “Oh, I always have a few in my purse.”

Me: “That’s… amazing!”
Customer: *Counting the ten packs of fake blood, each containing ten capsules.* “Hmm, a hundred. I hope this is enough to get me through to next Halloween…”
