One Saturday morning, a mom and daughter came in. They wanted a little $300 gold permanent bracelet to match. Daughter says, “Hey Mom, can I get an anklet also?”
“Sure,” she says.
As she is looking at our diamonds in the case, she says, “Wow! Is that real!?”
My son turns around, heads to the showcase, and says, “Why, of course, and you should own it and wear it on your hand every day!”
“Why?” she replies.
“So, whenever a man tries to ask you for a date, he will see what you’re wearing and know he would have to buy a larger one to even have a chance to get ya!”

“I like that idea,” she says. “How big is it and how much?”
“$225,000, and it’s a little over 10 carats!”
“I will take it!”
Sale closed. Less than 20 minutes! I thought he was lying to me. It was a Saturday in March. — Alan P., Wilmington, NC
