After queuing up at the Tesco checkout this morning, I said to the cashier, “Can you do this any cheaper?” “I’m afraid not,” she replied, “If we did it for you then we’d have to do it for everybody.” I said, “Yeah, but it’s got today’s date on it. If nobody buys it then it’s just going to get thrown away.” “Look sir, you’re holding up the queue. Do you want the newspaper or not?”
