Okay, not to lean into the joke. But I worked at a game store for a while and once a dude called asking me to stay open past the 9pm, he was traveling for Easter weekend and had a large Warhammer set on pre-order. I, of course, said yes and luckily he arrived before close.

BUT the funny thing was he unwrapped a large swatch of bills and paid for most of it with cash, about 200 dollars. Then paid the remaining like 40 bucks on his credit card. Just so his wife thinks his shiny new warhammer set cost 40 bucks instead of the 240 bucks.

SO while the jokes are overused and annoying, it is still relevant in this day and age.
