As he did,the old man placed 50 cents on the counter and walked out of the store withhis prescription. The clerk realized the mistake and shouted but the old man did not hear andkept walking. When the pharmacist finished his call the clerk explainedwhat had happened. The pharmacist scooped up the 50 cents and put it in the cash registersaying to the clerk, "Oh well, 30 cents profit is better than nothing."</blockquote>
