Bad Grocery Store, Bad

An upscale grocery market in New York committed a faux pas last week, advertising a special on ham for Hanukkah. Whoops. It got me to thinking about what other specials they may offer in this obviously insensitive grocery store:

  • “Name brand beers for 1/2 price when you show your grade school or junior high I.D.!”
  • “Bring in a doctor’s note that you’re suffering from Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and you’ll save big on Tabasco Sauce!”
  • “Anyone with an oxygen tank gets a 60% discount on cigarettes!”
  • “Show us your heart medication, and we’ll show you 33% off on all red meats!”

and of course, they would also have specials in their sporting goods and clothing aisles:

  • “Seniors get 40% off rollerblades! (MUST be over 65 and MUST have walker or cane with you)”
  • “Huge savings on bikinis and miniskirts to any customer wearing a burka!”

Like I said, they MAY offer these specials. But probably not.
