Sandwich Haggling

faceman · 20-10-2008 12:43pm #1

you know when you go to a sandwich shop or whatever to get a sandwich made up, and there is a basic price and they add on 50c etc per ingredient?

Well today in a moment of Eddie Hobbs, i was getting one of those "menu" sandwiches, where they give a sandwich a fancy name (e.g. the mudflapper which contains, beef, relish, lettuce, tomato and cheese) and it has a set price. however i decided i didnt want tomato on me mudflapper. So when i got to the till, she asked me as follows:

lady: So sur, you you have?
faceman: A mudflapper without the tomato
lady: that be €4 sur
faceman: yeah but i didnt want tomato and the full mudflapper costs €4, so can you deduct the price of the tomato please?
lady: eh, sur, eh, but its €4 for sandwich, no haggle price
faceman: but im not haggling...
lady: sur, do you want sandwich or not?
faceman: mudflapper less tomato is about €3.50 yeah?
lady: sur i get manager

anyway this went on for about 45 seconds. Was i being unreasonable to ask her for her number? she was possibly the hottest girl on the street, depending on the street of course.

It depends. Showing that you're cheap isn't really something taht women go for. On the other hand, showing that you stand up for what's right in society, shows her that you've got spunk. Wait until she finishes work and follow her home. If she doesn't call the cops, you're in!

I feel very uneasy even reading about a sandwich that sounds like a derogatory term for a black womans vagina, let alone eat it. Honestly....mud flapper?

You shouldve stared right in her eyes and said "you, me, your mate. A love sandwich. Ill bring the mayo, you bring the brown sauce". Definite score there.

If you couldint handle the "full mudflapper" i doubt she'd give you her number.

Straight way you told her: youre fussy about what you like to eat......Maybe if youre a total roide loike, she may forgive your tomato hating ways but she may also be thinking there are other things you also dont enjoy eating :eek:.

A bit too Freud perhaps.

maybe she likes a man that can handle a little tomato

Good post. Well thought.

I'd say 8.5 considering it's Monday.

Carry on.

Mudflaps are another name for ass regardless of the colour of the person. Which reminds me of this song.
