And, they sent fliers around, where you could pop in and get a free pork slider and a free blueberry muffin during this one week, and since they also have a winebar in the store that I'd have to go to as a new bar in the city, I thought I'd multitask and go get some free food and then have a drink at the new bar in the store.
Anyhow, I finally get there, and the place is *packed* with mostly (African-American) shoppers, and I scope out where the deli is, but as I head over there, just when I'm getting there, a (larger) (early 50s) (black) woman in a dark purple coat scoots into line in front of me.
And, as the deliworker comes up, she pulls out the same coupon I have.
"I recognize that!", I was like to her.
"Ha ha haaaa!" she said, her face just aglow, and she shot out her right fist to give me a fistbump.
Then, she explained that she had been there the previous week, too, to get the gelatto deal with the giveaway coupon that they put out that week.
"And it was good," she was like.
After she left and I finally got my pork slider and I wolfed it down, I went to the bakery part of the store, and it just wasn't clear where you had to stand at the long, long counter, to get the free muffin.
And then I spied that same woman's purple coat, and the (black) countergirl was handing her a paper bag with presumably a free muffin inside of it.
So, I walked over there and was like, "I couldn't figure out where to stand for the longest time, and then I saw you again! I should've just been looking for your coat from the start."
"Ha ha haaa," she was like.
Then, she went to walk away, and as a farewell, was like, "Enjoy!".
