Hey!
A pretty female friend in her early 30's met a 32 year old guy on the treadmill in Equinox Fitness Club in the Upper Eastside by saying "It's obvious that you work out a lot." They spoke and she found out that he was a former Olympic runner, worked at a major Wall St. firm and has an MBA from a top 10 school. Since she rarely meets this kind to all-around Top Gun looking type of guy she was very excited to go out on a date with him the following week.
They have a really fun dinner at SpotLight Live on Broadway off 48th St. He topped it off by singing “You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling” with 3 terrific professional back-up singers in front of hundreds of other diners. It also was simultaneously broadcast on the 50 foot TV screen on Broadway. SpotLight Live is like the "Mother of all Karaoke."
Later while walking in Times Square he admits that his parents were poor farmers from the Midwest. They then walk into Cold Stone Creamery for ice cream. He asked what flavor she wanted and since she's a former model she said she would just take a taste of his ice cream. He asks the server for extra Reeses Pieces and she informs him that it's an extra 69 cents. He comments to the server that is was ridiculous for them to charge extra but then agrees to take it. As they wait in line to pay, he asks his date if she thought anyone would notice if he didn't mention the extra Reeses Pieces in his ice cream. She said probably not. He ends up paying $4.89 for a medium cup of ice cream without the extra charge. As they walk out he whispers "they charge enough for this sh-t." She's now asking me if I thought that the Reeses Pieces “incident” was a "deal killer."
So let me know ask you this. Is this guy a cheapskate or is $4.89 too much for a medium size cup of ice cream?
