[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A healthy looking white lady asked me to buy her groceries outside of Harris Teeter in Navy Yard this week.  I think she had something legitimate going on with her mental health, so I was willing to buy her something.  But then she added "vegetarian, please, and can I come in the store with you?"  I said "no, nuh-uh" and walked off.  [/quote]

Never take them into the store with you.  There is a tendency for them to really stock up.  Instead ask if there is something they want from the store.[/quote]

This happened to a well-meaning friend living & working here in the USA from Germany; a woman approached him in the supermarket parking lot and he accompanied her into the store.

Then she really started stocking up, arguing with him over quantity, tried to guilt trip him, etc.

He finally got so fed up with her that he walked out and left her there without buying a thing.

What's troubling is the realization that this wasn't the woman's first time doing that type of scam; she'd obviously pulled that hustle before.[/quote]
