An old general store owner needs some help in sales...

So he hires a young farm hand, and explains to him on his first day- "Ya gotta understand the up sell kid"
The kid shakes his head, listening intently.

"The next customer that comes in, I'll demonstrate how it's done okay?"
again the kid nods.

Just then, a customer walks in, and asks where the grass seed is located.

"Isle 5, right this way sir!" He leads the customer to the seed, and says, "You want a rake to go with that?"

"Why do I need a rake?" the customer asks.

"Well, ya gotta scratch'em into the ground, or else the sun will burn them up!"

"Oh yeah! you're right!" said the customer, "fine, I'll take the rake too"

"You want a garden hose to go with that?"

"What do I need a garden hose for?" asked the customer.

"Well, in case it doesn't rain! Grass don't grow without water!"

"Oh yeah, let me get the garden hose too then" said the customer.

"You want a wheel barrow to go with that?"

"What do I need a wheel barrow for?" asked the customer.

"Well, ya got a 50lb sack of grass seed, a rake, and a garden hose...how ya gonna carry all that around the yard?"

"Oh yeah, sure, let me get a wheel barrow too" said the customer.

"You want a Lawn Mower to go with that?"

The customer exclaims "But I don't even have grass yet!"

"True, you don't have any grass YET...But you will soon now that you're prepared, and since my lawnmowers are on sale for half price right now, you'll save yourself a bundle when all that grass has grown!"

"Okay, fine, let me have a lawnmower too then I suppose."

The General store owner rings him up, and sees him to his truck. When he returns, with a big grin, the young farm hand says "That was AWESOME! Let me get the next customer, I totally got this sir!"

The General store owner decides to let him have a shot at the next customer that comes in, and a few minutes later a fellow walks in, and asks "Hey, where do you keep the Tampons at?"

"Isle 7! Right this way sir!" exclaims the farm boy, and leads the man to the Tampons...

"You want a lawn mower to go with that sir?" asks the farm boy.

"What the hell do I need a lawn mower for?!?!"

"Well..." says the farm boy, "It looks like you're in for a hell of a long weekend, so ya might as well get some yard work done!!!"
