One time this happened while I was grocery shopping. I had lots of refrigerated and frozen stuff. When they refused to let me make the call to get the block lifted, I told them to cancel the entire transaction. I then moved off to the side (well within hearing distance of everyone involved), made the call, and got the block lifted. I then turned to the person I was with and said "let's go grocery shopping again". We then went and re-shopped for everything we previously had and made a point to go back to the same cashier. She gave me a look and I held up my card and said "same card, let's do this again"; grinning the whole time. I don't think they were too thrilled about having to put my first cart of groceries away; especially since it contained so many cold products, forcing them to do it right away. But hey, I gave them an easy out and they rejected it.
OMG!! No you don't embarrass easy it seems I do though.
