Free Shirts
Here is the best sales pitch we heard in Thailand. A saleswoman in a mall was selling sport shirts. As we walked past, she said to Lance, “Try one sir, you buy.” “No,” Lance said. “They will be too small.” “Try, try,” she persists. “No, no,” Lance insists, “They will be too small.” Then she says, “Try on, if too small, it’s free!” Naturally, this line had Lance totally hooked; he agreed to try one on. Sure enough, it was too small. Valiantly, she tried to convince him that it was big enough. “Look at all the room in the body,” she says. “Yes, but I can’t do the neck up.” She tried as hard as she could, but finally even she had to give up and agree that she could not button the neck! Despite her offer of a free shirt, we left it there and walked away laughing.
