(get your line-eater fixed)

   A man gets a job at a general store, where his boss is training him
to work the cash register and sales.  He tells him "When a customer 
buys something, try to sell him a related item.  Watch me."
The next customer in the store asks for a box of grass seed.  Just as he
is about to leave, the boss says "Can I interest you in a lawnmower?  Now
that you will be growing grass, you'll need something to cut it."  The 
man agrees, and buys a lawnmower.
  So the new employee says "I think I have the hang of it".  The next 
customer comes in and asks for a box of Midol for his wife.  Just as he
is about to leave, the new employee says "Can I interest you in a
lawnmower?"  to which the customer asks "Why should I buy a lawnmower?"
And the employee replies, "Well, your weekend is shot, you might as well
cut the grass."
