A couple lived near the ocean and used to walk the beach a lot. One summer day they noticed a girl who was also at the beach nearly every day. She wasn't unusual, nor was the travel bag she carried, except for one thing. She would approach people who were sitting on the beach, glance around, then speak to them.
Generally, the people would respond negatively and she would wander off, but occasionally someone would nod and there would be and exchange of money for something she carried in her bag. The couple assumed she was selling drugs and debated calling the cops, but since they didn't know for sure they just continued to watch her.
After a couple more weeks of watching this the wife asked her husband, "Honey, have you ever noticed that she only goes up to people with boom boxes and other electronic devices?"
He hadn't and said so. Then she said, "Tomorrow I want you to get a towel and our big radio and go lie out on the beach. Then we can find out what she's really doing."
Well, the plan went off withour a hitch, and the wife was almost hopping up and down with anticipation when she saw the girl talk to her husband and then leave. The man walked up the beach and met hes wife at the road. "Well, is she selling drugs?" she asked excitedly.
"No, she's not" He said. "Her name is Sally and she's a battery salesperson."
"Batteries?" cried the wife.
"Yes", he replied. "She sells C cells by the seashore."
