Today, I visited a new, high-end grocery store for the fun of it. Inside, I came across some cute chihuahua Christmas tree ornaments that looked like my dogs. I thought that they would make an excellent Christmas present for my mom. I looked at the price sticker on one of them, and it said something like 149 with no period. I assumed that it meant $1.49, so I thought, "No problem!" and proceeded with the ornaments to the check out counter. After scanning the ornaments, the cashier told me my price. It sounded like she said, "Two dollars" and however many cents, so I handed her three dollars. She gave me a look like this and then said, "Ma'am? It's thirty-two dollars" and however many cents. Apparently, each ornament was $14.90, not $1.49. I felt like all of the air had been punched out of my lungs. After some nervous stuttering, I waved my palms at her and said, "I misread the price! Nope, never mind! Sorry, bye!" She looked really pissed off. Not only that, but in my nervousness, I accidentally avoided the exit and walked a longer distance than I had to just to exit through the entrance. Though it sounds like this incident should have made me unhappy, I actually had a good laugh about it after I escaped the store.
