Holiday shopping can put people in a festive mood, but it can also make them act somewhat crazy; fight strangers over something they want, for instance.
Redditor u/NeatCartographer209 told the online community about the time a woman tried to do her holiday shopping in a parking lot, aiming at his newly bought grill. She requested the man sell it to her and, when he refused, tried taking it herself. That ended in money flying around and far from beautiful holiday wishes imparted. Scroll down to find the full story in the OP’s own words.
Bored Panda has reached out to the redditor, who was kind enough to answer a few of our questions. You will find his thoughts in the text below.
Some people think money can get them anything, and are shocked when it doesn’t

A writer here at Bored Panda, I am a lover of good music, good food, and good company, which makes food-related topics and feel-good stories my favorite ones to cover. Passionate about traveling and concerts, I constantly seek occasions to visit places yet personally unexplored. I also enjoy spending free time outdoors, trying out different sports—even if I don’t look too graceful at it—or socializing over a cup of coffee.

Bit weird that she wanted to pay $200 for something that was broken. Almost as though… it wasn’t actually broken?

Would've just asked her what she wanted it for if it was broken, then 😆

Gee, religion was used to try to control and demean people. Who could see that coming?

I know this isn't the point of the story, but I went to Google to check out what a Ford Maverick looks like. A few things came to mind, because to me, that car is MASSIVE. So, first, if he considers that "very small", what the hell does he consider to be big? Second, if he couldn't fit the barbecue on his truck, HOW BIG WAS THAT BARBECUE?!?!?!

The Maverick is a smaller truck with a smaller (compared to other trucks) back. It can't handle the normally large load that trucks can handle because it is a hybrid. I'm super jealous. I was looking into getting one but the price has gone up ridiculously. And yeah, pellet BBQs are large and it probably had a side table.
