Some Charitable Information

(I am browsing in a charity shop and pick up a secondhand top from a national store well-known for being very cheap. I recently shopped at that store and bought several of these tops brand new. I realise the charity shop has made a mistake in pricing. I take the top to the cashier.)

Me: “I don’t want this, but I thought I should let you know it’s on sale at [Store] for £1.75 brand new.”

Cashier: *confused* “Okay?”

Me: “You’ve got it priced at £2.95.”

Cashier: “Yes.”

Me: “It’s cheaper to buy it new at [Store].”

Cashier: *sounding annoyed and glaring at me* “Well, it is for charity, you know!”

(Yeah, good luck with that…)
