Saying "HOW MUCH" to shop assistants at tills when they tell you the amount is not and has never been remotely funny , you're just being a cunt making them repeat themselves.

Yesterday when inquiring about the price for a Switch game (Hello Kitty Island Adventure: Deluxe Edition) at game the shop guy couldn't find a price. I said 'so a fiver then', he replied 'in your dreams!'
The distain was palpable. (Game was actually marked at £70, but currently discounted to £50)
Went into Sainsburys the other day for "a few bits" & it cost me £150, which was what you'd spend on a Christmas "big shop" a few years ago. I demanded a full & thorough explanation. "I'm just collecting the baskets" was all the lad could muster. Don't know what his PhD is in but it's not Economics.
Someone I went to college with in the 90s thought it was hilarious to ask the price of individual items at The Pound Shop. Same person used to go up to the counter in HMV and ask if they had ‘Big Ones’ (referring to Aerosmith’s Greatest Hits) and shout “SLOW DOWN!” at milkfloats.
One place I shop there was a guy who would say, 'That will be two thousand five hundred and ninety-nine pence, please' instead of £25.99. He flipped the script when offering carrier bags at 100 for £5. He did this with every single customer.

"£8.50"
"how much?!"
"£9.50"
Lots in Poundland costs more than £1 these days.
Never did find out if the person behind the counter at HMV had Big Ones though.
