At Kroger's
today in one aisle I went in about midways stood a frail little lady looking helplessly up at
the top shelf.
I figured
right that something was on that top shelf she wanted. I asked her could I help her get something
down.
"Yes"
she said, "That sack of Werthers."
The size bag
she wanted was in back of the shelf. I
stood on my tiptoes and could barely reach the top of the sack. with my finger tips I tilted the sack over
thus making it stick on more an inch or two more so I could reach it and rake
it towards me.
Opps! I raked two Werthers sacks instead of one to
me. I handed her one and was about to
put the second one on the next shelf down. She said she wanted that one too.
OK.
The elderly
love Weathers. My mother-in-law loved
them, and many times while at her house I took
I would help myself to a couple of her Werthers and acquired a taste for them too. I'm in my mid 70's. I qualify!
Recently I
heard a comedian make a crack about the elderly and their Werthers Candy.
So, why
would Krogers put their Werthers Candy on the unreachable top shelf?
