I though the story was going to take a different turn. Woman walks into a delicatessen and asks how much the pastrami costs. Guy behind the counter: $ 15 a pound. Woman: $ 15 a pound? The delicatessen 1/2 a mile from here sells it for $ 12 a pound! Guy: Well, then I suggest you buy it there. Woman: Well I would, but he's out of it. Guy: When we're out of pastrami we sell it for $ 10 a pound.
