It was closing time and I was already packing up when an diminutive lady came up to check out the pink.

Lady: So what have you got?

Me: It’s beetroot muesli, the only one of its kind in the world!

Lady: Wow beetroot, they look so pretty too! And this is what’s in it? (looking at the ingredients list)

Me: Yes, they all have over 40% raw organic beetroot, here have a taste. (I hand her a sample)

Lady: Oh that’s nice! Can I have a taste of the Pear & Pistachio please?

Me: Of course, here you go. It’s made from 2 kinds of beetroot, the red and golden. The golden when dehydrated becomes green giving the muesli a Christmas effect.

Lady: That is delicious! And they come in these bags?

Me: Yes, in single serve bags for $5 and large 7 serve bags for $25. I also have a market special, all 6 flavours for only $25, so you get one free.

Lady: Ok, I’ll take 2 of those then. (I hand her 2 packs) No wait, I better get one for each of my children for their Christmas hamper. Make that 6 please. (I handed her 4 more) Oh I must get one for myself too. (I had one pack left)

Me: You might as well get the last one, I’m sure you can think of someone else to give that too. (we share lolz)

Lady: Oh alright, give me the last one too (I happily put her purchase in large pretty pink bags).

Me: But wait there’s more! Since you’re my best customer today, I have some freebies for you. (I hand her PM pens)

Lady: Thank you so much! This is better than giving them junk food.

Me: Yes! And thank YOU so much, you’ve just made my day!

What a fabulous forward planner she is! We are both in the pink ?
