Sales talk - makes me wonder

A long time ago, some of us went for dinner and ordered hot butter cuttle fish. The waiter comes back and says "no hot butter cuttle fish, but we have stir fried prawns (or something to that effect" - and goes on to say that both tastes the same! I found this quite hilarious.

I went to buy some trousers over the weekend. Assume that my waist is 36. Well, I found a comfortably fitting trouser at 36, but wanted another colour. The sales girl - genuinely tells me that they have the colour that I want in size 34, and that there is not much difference between 36 and 34. Makes me wonder.
