anyway?"

the other aisles.

Play with the calculators so that they all spell
"hello" upside down.

ask, "Why won't you people just leave me alone?"

When two or three people are walking ahead of you, run
between them, yelling, "Red Rover!"

scale battlefield with G.I. Joes vs. the X-Men.

Take bets on the battle described above.

Nonchalantly "test" the brushes and combs in Cosmetics.

Hold indoor shopping cart races.

Mission: Impossible."

Attempt to fit into very large gym bags.

Attempt to fit others into very large gym bags.

Say things like, "Would you be so kind as to direct me
to your Twinkies?"

Set up a "Valet Parking" sign in front of the store.

Two words: "Marco Polo."

Leave Cheerios in Lawn and Garden, pillows in the pet
food aisle, etc.

explain that you don't get out much, and ask if they
can put a little umbrella in it.
