One of the funniest "most-embarrassing-moment" stories I've come upon in a long time was about a lady who picked up several items at a discount store. When she finally got up to the checker, she learned that one of her items had no price tag Imagine her embarrassment when the checker got on the intercom and boomed out for all the store to hear, "PRICE CHECK ON LANE THIRTEEN, TAMPAX, SUPER SIZE." That was bad enough, but somebody at the rear of the store apparently misunderstood the word "Tampax" for "THUMBTACKS." In a business-like tone, a voice boomed back over the intercom. "DO YOU WANT THE KIND YOU PUSH IN WITH YOUR THUMB OR THE KIND YOU POUND IN WITH A HAMMER?"

Somewhat similarly, when i was 15 i worked in a grocery store as a clerk - a rather pedo-looking older gentleman (we're talking the whole deal - bigass glasses, dirty, wifebeater, the dude should be driving a white cargo van) came through the line - he had like two huge bags of chips on top, laid completely over the other contents of the basket, and a case of cheap beer and a movie. I ring through the beer and the chips, and under them is a package of ribbed condoms and some ky jelly, and a sort of plain-looking box. I sorta laugh, ring the stuff through, and make a comment about a 'big night ahead' or something - the box doesn't ring up though, so he has to pause there in front of some people. Well, i call the manager, and the box ends up being a do-it-yourself enema kit, "complete with fluid" . . . when i read it to the boss, i almost shat myself, and i thought the guy was going to kill me for the 'big night' commment . . . it was so funny.
