>Once in Home Depot, I bought a pack of double A batteries (4 in the pack) and a laundry hamper. I dropped the batteries into the hamper and wandered around a bit. When I went to cash out, I took the batteries out and put them on the counter and the cashier rang them up, then she pointed to the hamper and said, "That too?". I said, "No, I just needed something to carry the batteries in". Believe it or not, I had to tell her I was joking and to ring up the hamper.
