Poor man’s layaway


the crafty art of hiding an item you want (but cannot afford to buy) in a carefully chosen place somewhere within the store to ensure the item will be there when you’re able to return with the money. a way for someone with inadequate or no money to “reserve” an item for themselves at a later date. anyone who’s ever been poor has done this at least once in their life. also known as “squirrelling”.
joe: “ma sent me out to the drug store for her tampons yesterday, and that’s when i found the cd i’ve been looking for, but it was the last one in the store. after the tampons, there wasn’t even enough left for a d-mn c-ke, that stingy, bl–dy-tw-tted b-tch!!”

jack: so, what happened?

joe: i wanted to steal it, but you know, the whole “3 strikes” thing. so i found a spot in the store to put it on poor man’s layaway until next friday, when i get paid.
