Woman Buys 10,000 Mars Bars, Drives Off in Limo

The woman asked staff at a north London Woolworths branch for every single Mars bar in stock -- 10,656 of them packed in 220 boxes -- and paid for them in cash with 50 pound notes, a Woolworths spokesman said on Wednesday.

The total bill was 2,131 pounds ($3,828).

"It was very, very strange but nobody thought to ask her why she wanted so many," the spokesman said.

"It would usually take us a month to shift that number of chocolate bars," he added. "Perhaps she has a sweet tooth."
Pretty crazy, isn't it. Now let's have some discussion concerning the following points:

- What are your feelings regarding the woman?
- Have you ever had an irrational urge?
- If so, did you act upon it or restrain yourself?
- Do you like Mars bars?
- Have you ever rode in a Limo?
- If so, did you enjoy it?

You come into some money and your first instinct is, "how can I blow it all?" Don't you have a bank somewhere near by?
