I hate to shop

Pretend you work in retail. Say, at the store my kids call the Giant Controller Store.

If I asked you if you had "A power converter that plugs into a standard 110 A/C socket and the other end is the female end of a D/C cigarette lighter" would you know what I wanted?

Would you send me to the CAR ACCESSORIES section? Where such an accessory would NEVER be used (that being, in a car)?

No, I didn't think so, because YOU aren't stupid. Like the people at the Giant Controller Store.

It's a $2 item. Which they don't have. At the Giant Controller Store. Apparently.

The dumb thing is, I drove by Radio Shack about EIGHT times today and didn't think to stop.

Because, I guess, I'm stupid.
