[Heard this one from a friend the other day.]

That honesty is the best policy was driven home to me a couple of days
ago, when I went to the butcher's shop late in the day. A wizened old
lady wanted to buy a lamb roast, so he'd pulled one out, weighed it,
and told her, "That'll be $13.45, please."

"Too small, I'm afraid. Do you have a larger one?"

The butcher picked up the roast, went out to the back room, waited a
while (it was obviously the last one he had in stock), and came back.
"This one should be better. It's $15.20."

I was just about to explode in protest, when I saw the old lady give
him a sly grin. "Thank you. That's perfect. I'll take both."
