Had you been at the Fresno Cost Plus World Market this weekend, you would have heard a spectacular crash coming from the glassware area.
It went on and on and on, then someone started clapping and cheering like they do at restaurants when the waiter drops a tray full of dishes.
I am surprised I have not witnessed this sort of catastrophe before. Cost Plus stacks box upon box of glassware in the aisles, then displays a sample of the glasses right on top of the box. I checked out the one that went down this weekend and it was seven boxes high, each holding 6 champagne flutes. The tower was very Dr. Seuss with the glasses perched like Yertle the Turtle atop a turtle tower.
Everyone who shops at Cost Plus knows about these hazards. The idiot who knocked it over was clearly not paying attention, probably trying to unfurl a table runner and backed into it or something.
Day dreamer.
Preoccupied moron.
Careless fool.
Oh wait, it was me.
So have you ever destroyed a store display in the name of shopping? Do tell.
