Heh heh I have been to Kaiserslaughtern, Germany twice and have stayed there a week total. I wonder what store the man returned his potato filled fun???
I worked for an Electronics store that offered lower prices on items that had been returned but weren't damaged (open box). I had a customer who bought a PC, then returned it cause it wasn't what he wanted. I promptly made the PC open box and it got re-shelved with a discount. Amazingly, the next day, I rang up the same guy as he re-bought the discounted computer... My manager said there was nothing I could do about his deception, but it was pretty clever!
Re: This story My guess is the computers he bought didn't have potatoes when he bought them, he was just harvesting the parts himself!
Wow.. I wonder if this guy mistook the computer for one of those "slices, dices, makes fries" kind of gadgets... Hopefully he never tried to use the "cup holder"
