August, my Buddy Doll April, came yesterday in pieces. I need to clean and restring her. Having never restrung a doll before [with proper tools], I seek hemostats, among other things. I called the local Walgreen's to see if they sold hemostats.\
Me: Do you sell hemostats?
Person 1: Let me check.
[long pause, hold music, boredom]
Person 2: Hello, Walgreen's.
Me: Hi, I was wondering if you sell hemostats.
Person 2: Can you spell that, please?
Me: H-E-M-O-S-T-A-T-S.
Person 2: What's a hemostat?
Me: It's a clamp thing.
Person 2: Is it an over-the-counter product?
Me: You know, if you aren't sure what it is, you probably don't carry it. Thanks. Goodbye.
