"OK, you spoke to someone on Friday, who did you speak to? You spoke to me? That's interesting, 'cos Friday was my day off and... oh you're absolutely certain you spoke to me? And what item were you looking for? A [thingy which could refer to any of twenty products]? And it had a [thingy which all those products have]? Did you have a part number? No, but you're sure I know what you're talking about? Did I quote you a price? Yes but you can't remember - but you know it was under [price larger than 90% of the products it could be]..."

Or there's the perennial favourite:
"What price is a box of [specific item]?"
"All [general item] are [price]"
"And what price is a box of [another specific item]?"
"All [general item] are [price]"

This is why I have internet access. I can type and talk like this at the same time :D
