"My wife told me to pick up some milk... and I got a little something for me too!"Several months ago, I entered a Costco cartoon contest. The rules were simple. Do something funny that is obviously taking place in a Costco store. I go to Costco all the time... and I draw cartoons... so I thought I would take a shot at it. My wife has a true story about seeing a friend of ours walking out of Costco one day with a gallon of milk and a huge flat screen TV. We thought this was a funny contrast, so I turned it into this cartoon. As is my habit, I put this off till the night before the contest ended. But I whipped this out and I think I sent it to the proper email address. I hope I did anyway. My INSTINCT told me that I was going to be the winner of a cool Costco gift card. But my instinct was wrong... very wrong... sigh...
So... what do you think? Is this cartoon funny? Is my Funny-O-Meter out of whack? Tell me what you think. One lucky comment, selected at random, will win a free Snugglie, a set of Ginsu steak knives and one of the failing US automakers (your choice)
Very funny, cant miss the chance to win. he he.
ReplyDeleteI think it's perfect! What a funny story! Are you sure you didn't win? Or at least win a runner up or something? Bummer about that part of it.
ReplyDeleteI think it's funny!
ReplyDeleteBut maybe Costco people see this scene too often... :)
Very funny cartoon, will the ginsu cut thro' my shoe??
ReplyDeleteEhehehee! Very funny idea!
ReplyDeleteI think it's very funny, but maybe it was too true for the Costco folks to laugh at ;) Nice cartoon!
ReplyDeleteThat will teach your wife. Great illustration.
ReplyDeleteHa! This is right on the funny mark!
ReplyDeleteI love peculiar pairings, especially those observed from real life.
This is hilarious! I laughed out loud - great job!
