WOMAN, 79, BANNED FROM A WAREHOUSE CLUB AFTER EATING 62 SAMPLES IN ONE AFTERNOON AND ASKING FOR A SEAT COLUMBUS, OHIO — Peggy Amberson, 79, was banned Tuesday from a regional warehouse club after employees tracked her working through 62 free samples across the store in a single afternoon, then asking a sample table worker if she could "just sit here a while." Staff say she moved methodically from station to station with a small notepad, revisiting several tables twice once new batches came out. She allegedly circled the sample stations repeatedly, revisiting several tables twice Employees say she brought her own small notepad to track which samples she'd tried Amberson reportedly asked one worker for a folding chair "for the long haul" Investigators counted 62 confirmed samples across fourteen different stations Staff say she skipped the actual shopping cart entirely for the full visit Employees said Amberson had clearly treated the sample stations as a full meal circuit, working steadily from the frozen aisle to the deli counter without ever picking up a cart or a single grocery item. One employee said "she had a system, and honestly, it was impressive — she hit every station in order like a buffet line." "I've dealt with people testing one sample too many, kids grabbing handfuls," said store manager Denise Halloran. "Never someone requesting a chair to settle in permanently at the sample table for the afternoon." The notepad, 62 samples checked off, reportedly declined to comment. She turned free samples into a full meal plan — the store just wasn't ready to host dinner. #funny #comedy #fblifestyle #satire #FORENTERTAINMENTONLY
