A young man shopping in a supermarket noticed a little old lady following him around.
If he stopped, she stopped. Furthermore she kept staring at him.
She finally overtook him at the checkout. She turned to him and said , "I hope I haven't made you feel ill at ease; it's just that you look so much like my late son."
He answered, "That's okay."
"I know it's silly, but if you'd call out "Good bye, Mom" as I leave the store, it would make me feel so happy."
She continued on and went through checkout.
As she was on her way out of the store, The man called out, "Goodbye, Mom."
The little old lady waved, and smiled back at him.
Pleased that he had brought a little sunshine into someone's day, he went to pay for his groceries.
"That comes to $121.85," said the clerk.
"How come so much? I only bought 5 items!"
The clerk replied, "Yeah, but your mother said
you'd be paying for her things, too."

I got this one myself not too long ago and thought it was quite funny! A good laugh is always a good laugh!
Hahaha...what a naughty little old lady... Why didn't I think to do something like that at the gas station when gas was so high?
Linda: that's what I say :-0
Lynn: it's a scam and you don't think like that, that's why!
Now THAT is funny.
Te he he...now that's one very clever (and evil) little old lady.
