Mr. Smartypants replies, "Oh REALLY, I thought you just bought them for the articles!"

After composing myself, I informed him that ordinarily, remarks like that would land him back in the car to wait for me, but since this is what I think he wants, he just bought himself ten more minutes in the fabric store instead! Oh, and the longer I spend in the store, the more $$$ I spend as a result, so keep it up, Bucko!

So I ask you, what kind of punishments do you dole out to your Mister Smartypants?
I'd have laughed my rear off. This sounds like something my DH would have said, except then he would have said "Do you want it? Git it, if ya want it." Sometimes he helps me find fabric. If I say "I want something that reads red" he will spot it for me.
