Discussion Buying Rope

[ForceUser101]

If I go to a random department store and buy rope, do you think anyone will bat an eye? I may be vastly overthinking this but it would be quite awkward if someone asked me why I was buying some rope.

Don't know where you live, but in the US, store merchants couldn't care less why you buy something, as long as you give them $$$. It's all about $$$.

How about coming up with some excuses?

I bought a rope in May 2023 and no questions were asked. I live in Japan.

My coworked explicitly joked about me hanging myself when I bought rope from my store. Helps with the motivation, I guess...

Yeah I'm probably going to say something along those lines if they ask, but its in the US so I highly doubt they will care.

Try a hardware store. If they have rope for sale, they really are hoping people will buy it. Buy it.
