Having worked in a grocery store for a number of years I'd witness this kind of stuff happening all the time. A guy in the detergent isle not sure which brand is best and asking some woman for cleaning advice and then seeing the conversation take off from there. Or in the meat dept where a young guy isn't sure how to cook a roast or a turkey and asking a woman for advice and it taking off from there also. The enviroment created opportunities for men and women to meet.

As a worker in the store it was a great way to meet women. There would be the regulars that would shop the same store and over a period of time they would get to know the staff and visa versa. One winter I had some customer invite to her place for Christmas dinner. She knew my parents were in Arizona for the winter and that I was alone for Christmas and from there a friendship was formed.
