The Power of Marketing, YO

Yesterday at the store our computer was having issues so we rebooted the sucker which in turn shut down the check and credit card approval authorization. We get very few checks anymore, most people use debit cards. Well imagine our surprise when 4 customers in a row wrote checks that had to be called in (one of which was declined, twice), ack. So, when all else fails, inject humor..........When a fifth customer came up to the counter to pay for her purchase she asked..."you take checks....?"......I said..."Yo".......she looked at me seriously and put her checkbook back into her purse.....LOL, thanks to the commercials for Visa Check Cards.......she actually thought we didn't take checks.....I assured her we do indeed take checks...hehe.....Yo. Silly moi at straight up trippin boo......lol.
