Friday 11th September 2015 - Freebies

My local supermarket enjoys setting up little stalls and handing out free samples. Totally fine by me. In the past week I have enjoyed a tiny cup of coffee, a segment of juicy kiwi and a mouthful of oaty cereal bar deliciousness.

I haven't quite mastered the art of escaping with my freebies though. I tend to:

1) pause thoughtfully and pretend I'm considering parting with my pennies

2) shower the deliverer of the free goods with compliments

3) make an awkward excuse about desperately needing to grab another product (today my brain chose raisins. Good one Scarlett, because raisins are urgent).

4) Shuffle away awkwardly

Advice would be welcomed. In the future, I dream of enjoying my freebies without running the risk of apologetically buying a packet.
