    Did they win any money on the chewing gum?
    No but my mate insisted if they scanned enough items they'd find a winner!?
    they wouldn't listen to me sayin that you need the ticket to cash it in! You can hardly hand the person on the till a packet of blue extra claim it's a winner!

    So you don't know how to use a scanner? What did you do that you never had exposure to a scanner or till?


    Never used a scanner in my life and worked in a cafe, hotel reception, slushie stand, travel agents.

    This is all without a college degree. What strange thinking!

    I'm almost certain I do stupid things like this all the time. I asked for potato wings at a deli today, could not understand how the lady never heard of them until I read this.

    They were most likely hungover.

    Ah a lot of people might accidentally do something as silly as this. It's when someone repeatedly does it that you know there is something wrong.

    We've all had those moments where we haven't a clue what we were thinking.

    Everyone has those moments where they act like they brain just switched off. I especially tend to sub hotel for hospital when I'm telling a story. Ditto bed and table. So you can imagine the weirdest stories come out!

    I was trying to fill up a van with diesel in a well known forecourt in waterford a while back when a lad came out and said the pumps were not working. I though "grand" and jumped back into the van and proceeded to drive off and then the lad running the place starts shouting "stop...STOP". I was like wtf? i was after driving far enough to have pulled the entire pump out of the ground, wires and shoite came up out of the ground. Closed the place for two days. Completely forgot the nozzle was still stuck in the tank
