This isn't really political..but I guess it can be with the current slinging of "RACIST" being bantied about as it is with this election..anyway, I thought I'd pop it in the lounge..
Two nights ago I was in Walmart, I was picking up a couple of Fabreze noticeables because I have a ton of $5 coupons for them & I really like the product. So while I was there there were a few other people standing by the fragrance items, we all got talking about noticeables & I offered coupons to a woman & a couple. We were just chatting along, I mentioned how much I like them, that even though the sign said $7.48, they were scanning at $5.97, so the coupon made them only 97 cents..and I mentioned how much I liked them.
It was like a love fest, all joking around & everyone excited that I was sharing coupons & the guy says to me, "wow, there really are nice white people out there". Now mind you..it didn't even click to me that he was black..I would have maybe guess latino if I had to think about it, but I seriously gave it no thought whatsoever (until after his comment), it was completely irrelevant to me. His wife gave him the serious glare, I just chuckled, kept up some small talk & we went our separate ways.
I was talking with my niece on my bluetooth while shopping & she heard the whole conversation..she was stunned!
Can you imagine if the tables were turned?
