I went to local Ace Hardware yesterday. I bought 4 bolts and 4 split/lock washers. I filled out a little paper form that basically said 4 x 59¢ and 4 x 17¢. They were out of bags at the fastener aisle, so I put the bolts and washers on the counter and handed the form to the young cashier. He rang me up and asked me if I wanted him to put my nuts in a bag. I about cracked up, but managed to hold it together and tell him I had purchased bolts and washers and no nuts ![]()
It was hard to resist saying “no, my nuts are already in a bag and they don’t need your attention”.
