I had no fear of this ever happing with my young wife! She waited till in her forties!

I was installing a new door and found that one of the hinges was missing.

I asked my wife Mary if she would go to Lowes and pick up a hinge.

Mary agreed to go. While she was waiting for the manager, Charlie, to finish serving a customer, her eye caught a beautiful bathroom faucet.

When the manager was finished, Mary asked him, "How much is that faucet?"

The manager replied, "That's a gold plated faucet and the price is $500.00."

Mary exclaimed, "My goodness, that's an expensive faucet - certainly out of my price range.."

She then proceeded to describe the hinge that I had sent her to buy.
The manager said that he had them in stock and it was $3.49. He then went into the storeroom to get one.

From the storeroom, the manager yelled. "Ma'am, you wanna screw for the hinge?"

Mary shouted back, "No, but I will for the faucet."
