.... realism. Updike uses the setting in a way to show humor. In the beginning, Sammy is ringing up an older woman’s groceries when three bathing suit clad girls walk in. Sammy, of course, forgets what he is doing momentarily, and rings up a box of HiHo crackers twice and the old woman catches the mistake (Updike 316). “She’s one of these cash-register-watchers, a witch about fifty with rouge on her cheekbones and no eyebrows, and I know it made her day to trip me up,” Sammy thinks about the old woman (Updike 316).
