Subway + Cars
SUBWAY:
A couple of years back my mum asked my sister and I what we "wanted for Easter" via text. (I'm 28 and my sister is 21)
We laughed about it, thinking she was messing but my sister ended with eggs regardless. I, however, being a fussy twat don't like chocolate. So my mother ventured into Subway and asked if they did "Gift Vouchers".
Luckily it was quiet in there that day but the idea of a gift voucher for Subway makes me sound like a fast bastard and not someone who tried to choose the healthy (compared to McDonalds) option.

CARS:
2/3 years back my step-dad was in the mood for a new car. My mother went along to moan about paint colour and I tagged along because I love seeing my step-dad haggle and argue with retailers. (He does it ALL the time!)
So, he's inside talking ABS and all that jive with the salesman whilst mumsy and I venture outside to look in the show-cars.
"This one!" says she and points to the car she likes.
We get in a nice shiny blue Mondeo, mum in driver seat, me passenger side. Mum leans over and opens the glove compartment and removes some sort of book.... she opens it up and it's a photo-album. So she starts glancing through it as I notice there's actually a lot of stuff in that glove compartment. I look at the back-seat and there's a child-booster seat and a load of kids toys.
That's right folks, we were in another customers car, rummaging around and being the world's slowest thieves.
"Umm let's go back inside." says I.

Never saw who that car belonged to until it passed on the motorway 20 minutes later. Kid in the backseat and everything.

Thank Christ no-one saw us, for both embarrassment and legal reasons.
