are you thinking he's an undercover store cop looking to bust shoplifters or are you seriously thinking he's trying to pick you up, OR.... OR.... he's a total freak with issues?
i guess the public aisle is somewhat personal (hmmmm.... maybe that aisle should be behind a curtain and men who need something for a female must present note to a female runner to get the product for him), so since the aisle is somewhat personal AND FOCUSED, are you even thinking about picking up a date when you're holding a giant box of tampons?!!!!
perhaps, I can bring the box of tampons to the first date and place it on the dinner table and start off the convo with "gee, if not for these, we wouldn't be sitting here now...." then for the 25th year wedding anniversary, have the box framed in silver for all to see.
