Overheard at the supermarket

A husband and wife were grocery shopping. He picked up a suitcase of beer and put it in their cart.

"What are you doing?" asked the woman.

"They're on sale," replied the husband. "24 cans for $10."

"We can't afford that. Put them back."

The man does so and they continue shopping. A bit later the woman picked up a jar of face cream.

"Why are you buying that?" demanded the husband.

"It's only $20 and makes me look beautiful," she said.

"So do 24 cans of beer and it's half the cost!" said the man.

The caption read, "That's him in Aisle 5" and showed a man faced down on the floor!
