Confused customers. (long)

I had two good ones today. An older gentleman walks in, gets about two steps towards the counter and asks "do you sell ginger ale here?". I just sort of stare in disbelief and before I can say anything a customer near where he was standing informs him that he might have better luck at the convenience store two doors down, he thanks him and leaves. About an hour later another old man comes in, gets halfway to the counter this time and asks "do you sell ice cream cones here?". I fill him in on the store this time and he thanks me and leaves. After I exchange a WTF look with another customer in the store I start marveling about how much we look like a seven eleven considering WE ARE AN AUTO PARTS STORE! Just weird, almost felt like a hidden camera show or something.

Maybe they had mental difficulties?

Or maybe you were a hidden camera show, though I don't know what would be so funny about what they did, it's just weird!

It reminds me of when people ask for matches where I work. In a casino cage. Matches=fire=all the money. I don't get the logic of people asking for strange stuff like that.

It's like that one prank phone series of calls, where the caller asks for some random person, and calls back, and calls back, always asking for someone who doesn't live at that number. The final time, they call, proclaiming to be the unknown person, and ask if there were any calls for them.
"Nope! F*ck you for calling! *click*"

I guess that would fit the OP situation, if the third guy to walk in tried to sell you ginger ale, or ice cream cones, or something.
