Shopping With The Missus

Sounds like a working title screenplay for a WKD ad. The men, all shopping with their girlfriends/wives, text a plan to slip away and meet in a chrome-clad bar to fart and drink football. However, on this particular shopping excursion , myself and the missus are engaged in an interesting debate with the clothes shop assistant. While the missus was trying on a skimpy high-cut cardigan I noticed a dress made from the same material. The dress was double the price. "Why?" I asked the assistant.

"Well, it's double the material," she replied.

I then found an extra large version of the dress and compared it to the small one. "Look, almost double the material but it's the same price as the small dress. Why?"

"It doesn't work like that Sir."

"But why not? It's more material for the extra large dress just as it's more material for the small dress compared to the skimpy cardigan."

The missus then points out that it would be sizest to charge more of someone who is extra-large.

"Surely that would be an incentive for the extra-largers to lose weight," I counter.

I feel a letter to Cosmopolitan coming on.
