Shopping with Blue Socks

For years, if I would ask my mother for something while we were shopping, she'd ask me what color socks I was wearing. I'd tell her and she would respond "Oh I'm sorry honey, only children with blue (or red, or white, or any other color I was wearing) socks can get that today." I never questioned it; I just continued to think that it was a store rule. I was about eight or nine before it stopped working. I was such a gullible kid...

Note to self: Use this if I ever have children.
