He just didn't realize what was at "Steak"
What a moron. A manager in the meat department of a Budapest, Hungary grocery store is under arrest for suspected fraud. From the AP story:
The manager, who was in custody for suspected fraud, is accused of telling meat-counter staff without a supervisor's approval to put the tenderloin on sale for $4.40 per kilogram, instead of the usual price of $13.95.A few hours later, the manager's wife showed up at the store in the southern city of Kecskemet and tried to buy the beef at the discounted price. A cashier, aware the meat wasn't on sale, alerted security guards who called the police.
His wife bought 47 pounds of tenderloin, but they're still "not sure" if she was an accomplice.
Or what? Getting on the Atkins diet in a big way? Oh, brother.
