The other day, one of my roommates went grocery shopping. I came home and saw a huge watermelon on the kitchen table. Since it's not something the typical college student would buy, I said something to her.
Me: "What's with the watermelon?"
L: "It was a really good deal. It was 49 cents. So I bought the biggest one they had, 23 pounds."
Me: "Oh, you mean 49 cents a pound."
Silence.
Me: "They don't sell watermelon for 49 cents. It's by the pound. Did you look at your receipt?"
She didn't. But when she eventually did, she had bought a watermelon--at 49 cents a pound for a total of $12.
