A conversation at the counter:

SIGN ABOVE THE TILL: Portugese Deli Sandwich (Ham, Turkey, Roast Beef), $3.99

IRRITATED FEMALE CUSTOMER: Why is this $4.75?

LOST TILL-GIRL: Sorry?

IFC: You've overcharged me. This is $3.99.

LTG: [flustered giggle]

IFC: There's a sign. Look, right there--

LTG: --says "Bagel"--

IFC: No, below that. [reads] "Portugese Deli Sandwich (Ham, Turkey, Roast Beef), $3.99."

LTG: But computer says--

IFC: I don't care what the computer says. Your sign-- [to CJB] What do you think?

CJB: Your sandwich should be free, and her boss should be fired.
