I thought the first one was just a fluke:
Me: "Where can I find naval jelly?"
Info desk: "I'm not sure we carry it, but it would be in cosmetics."
Yesterday: "Do you guys carry soldering pencils?"
Info desk, slightly more clueful: "Check hardware. Or stationary."

Stationary is always a good place to look, because stuff placed there
never moves away from there.

In the guys defense, wood burning kits (which look a lot like
a soldering iron, and can do double duty) probably are near
the calligraphy pens in stationary.
I hope no one splashed acid on their face thinking it's cosmetic.

That's a good call. The guy did seem pretty clueful. He didn't go "A what?"
like almost everyone in Wal-mart does when you ask for anything more complex
than paper towels.

You're upvoting my making humorous remarks about your spelling woes?
I normally wouldn't ask, but I realize that my post could have had
other unintended meanings...
