Proof of Purchase
A little old lady went to the grocery store to buy cat
food. She picked up three cans and took them to the check out counter. The girl
at the cash register said, "I'm sorry, but we cannot sell you cat food
without proof that you have a cat. A lot of old people buy cat food to
eat, and the management wants proof that you are buying the cat food for
your cat."
The little old lady went home, picked up her cat and
brought it back to the store. They sold her the cat food. The next day
she tried to buy three cans of dog food. Again the cashier demanded proof
that she had a dog because old people sometimes eat dog food. She went
home and brought in her dog. She then got the dog food.
The next day she brought in a box with a hole in the lid.
The little old lady asked the cashier to stick her finger in the hole. The
cashier said,"No, you might have a snake in there."
The little old lady assured her that there was nothing in
the box that would harm her. So the cashier put her finger into the box
and pulled it out and told the little old lady, "That smells like shit."
The little old lady said, "It is. Now can I buy three rolls of toilet
paper?"
