3.19 please...

Does anybody else smile when they're in a shop and the total of their goods comes to $(£)3.19 and the person on the till will actually say '319 please'?

Nope, I'm probably on my own with that one.

But anyway, has anybody had any other situations when they hear something in their everyday lives that has an unintentional Prince connection?

The other day, someone was reading me an invoice
number that started "777...".
I stopped them right there, and shouted out "9311!"
Ah, 2 B a Prince fan! woot!
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

Okay young man has anybody told you yet that instant 'in- shop' price inflation still is regarded as a rather simple form of creative salesmanship.
I feel pretty, that's enough

Why are the lyrics on the inlay card for 319 not the same as in the song? The French bit at the start of the song is different.

No Haystack you are not the only one.

I laugh everytime 319 comes up when I go to the
store happen last week. Its a private joke between
my son and myself. I'm just glad someone else
goes through this. lol
