I would also like a study on which races are more likely to complete a a transaction at a convenience store, receive their change, and then ask to buy something else.

A young gent at the liquor store, accompanied by his large girlfriend, bought a 12-pack of cheap beer and some Newports. He handed the clerk a wad of bills and a pocketful of change.

The clerk counted out the correct amount and slid a couple bucks of change back.

Young gent (to girl): "What that gum you be liking?" Her (sweetly, grinning), "Juicy Fruit". Gent (to clerk, like a boss): "Gimme 'bout fo' fi' pack of that Juicy Fruit gum."

That gal walked out smiling like he had bought her a dozen roses.

God, I loved seeing that.
