I'm torn between feeling good that the little old lady got her money back, and thinking she deserved to lose it. - JaxSean Dec 29, 08:09 6
- it's so gross that whole foods put a box of opened crackers on the shelf. -- nm - auld lang syne loves mandy lane Dec 29, 08:11 5
  - yeah "by mistake". riiight. -- nm - mafic Dec 29, 08:12 4
    - no way, right? it's their gross policy, I bet. -- nm - auld lang syne loves mandy lane Dec 29, 08:13 3
      - If I am the family, I sue Whole Foods. -- nm - Spawn Dec 29, 08:17
      - i think a box of crackers costs about $10k at Whole Foods. maybe they just assumed -- nm - pigby Dec 29, 08:17 1
        
        laughing. this is really, really funny. -- nm - auld lang syne loves mandy lane Dec 29, 08:18
The old lady is by far the funniest part of that story. -- nm - TFox Dec 29, 08:05 25
- And the cops. - Loyola Dec 29, 08:07
- Who tf returns crackers? -- nm - Amy SuperHoop Queen Dec 29, 08:06 23
  - What supermarket puts an OPENED box of crackers back on the shelf? -- nm - loosilu Dec 29, 08:09 11
    - maybe crazy old lady glued it back shut. -- nm - mafic Dec 29, 08:11 3
      - Maybe she just slipped the envelope through the side of the flap. -- nm - Amy SuperHoop Queen Dec 29, 08:16 1
        
        seems like $10K would be a fat envelope. -- nm - loosilu Dec 29, 08:20
      - seems like it would be hard to do t hat and have it not be obvious. -- nm - loosilu Dec 29, 08:14
    - Whole Foods, I guess. -- nm - JaxSean Dec 29, 08:10 6
      - gross. -- nm - loosilu Dec 29, 08:11 5
        
        I find it so tough to believe that that's not something they do regularly. I mean, what are the chances that - auld lang syne loves mandy lane Dec 29, 08:13 4
        
        Thye may need a name change. "Whole" Foods doesn't qualify if somebody's eaten my crackers. - Inigo Dec 29, 08:17 1
        
        laughing. -- nm - auld lang syne loves mandy lane Dec 29, 08:19
        
        but you could find $10,000, too. -- nm - JaxSean Dec 29, 08:15
        
        It says in the article it was a mistake. But who knows? -- nm - Amy SuperHoop Queen Dec 29, 08:15
  - it's the kind of thing my grandmother would do. she'd be all "what the crap did I buy these gross-ass crackers for? back to the store with you!" -- nm - mafic Dec 29, 08:08 9
    - your grandmother has potty mouth. -- nm - auld lang syne loves mandy lane Dec 29, 08:14 1
      - oh, if you only knew. - mafic Dec 29, 08:17
    - But she obviously liked the crackers, b/c she had a box from before to put all that money in. -- nm - TFox Dec 29, 08:09 6
      - from before? all she needed was one box. -- nm - loosilu Dec 29, 08:10 5
        
        Yeah, but, she didn't eat the crackers, put all her money in it, and then return it to the store an hour later, right? - TFox Dec 29, 08:14 4
        
        ah, you assume she remembered which box it was in, which clearly she did not. -- nm - loosilu Dec 29, 08:15 3
        
        wha? i assume she had 2 identical boxes and buttfucked the return up by grabbing the wrong one. -- nm - TFox Dec 29, 08:17 1
        
        you can mix them up without having them be identical. Even I could do that and I'm not an old lady. -- nm - loosilu Dec 29, 08:21
        
        ha ha. clearly the old lady was high. the cops were right! drug drop. -- nm - auld lang syne loves mandy lane Dec 29, 08:16
  - Old people. When I worked at a supermarket bank, I had an old guy come to my counter with diapers to return, because they were too big. - TFox Dec 29, 08:08
"That's the best damn cracker I've ever had. What was that? A ritz?" -- nm - oblique Dec 29, 08:03
