A woman goes to a sporting goods store to buy a rod and reel for her son's birthday. She grabs one and approaches the clerk who's wearing dark shades.
"Can you tell me about this rod and reel?" she asks.
"Ma'am, I'm completely blind," he replies. "But if you drop it on the counter, I'll tell you everything you need to know about it from the sound it makes."
She drops the rod on the counter.
"That's a six-foot graphite rod with a 404 reel and 10-pound test line," the clerk declares. "It's on sale this week for $20."
"I'll take it!" she exclaims. She opens her purse, and her credit card falls to the floor. She bends down to pick it up and accidentally lets one rip. She's embarrassed but decides not to draw attention to it when the blind man doesn't react.
He rings her up and says, "That'll be $34.50, please."
"Didn't you just tell me it was on sale for $20?" asks the baffled woman.
"The rod & reel is $20," he replies, "but the duck call is $11, and that catfish bait costs $3.50."
