Cindy’s close encounter w/creeper

Random guy excuses himself to reach above me in the bread aisle. "You smell really good," he says. "Thank you," I reply. "I haven't been able to smell myself all week." Awkward silence. "I've had a cold,"I mumble....And this is why Derek should do the grocery shopping -- Cindy.

Question: When did you last have a weird experience with a stranger while shopping or otherwise minding your own business?
