Today I went to a DIY shop to look at walpaper with my husband, he wandered off to look at some paint and when I found him I asked him which paint he was thinking of buying, he then picked up a huge plastic paint pot and said "this one"
No sooner had he said it than he dropped the paint pot which spilled a huge amount of white paint all over the floor of the aisle. I really didn't know what to do or where to look as I was so embarrassed.
Then he looked at me and said " Did anyone see us ?" then ran for the door!
I followed think what is he doing ? this is not like him , when we got in the car he said he was too embarrassed to tell anyone and just wanted to get out of the store.
Looking back at this incident I can now laugh as it was a funny thing to happen ... so what would you do run or admit it was you ?

It was a can of Paint... What's that like $35? Embarassment aside i think i would have paid for my clumsiness. Tsk Tsk. But it is just a can of paint... NO harm no foul.

I Think I would get a store associate.I am Pretty sure they would not make you pay for it! I'm sure it's embarrassing. I would really laugh about it if I did it too! But it's always better to 'fess up so that it can get cleaned up right away! I would really feel badly if I found out someone stepped in it or slipped in it later!

that is true he was a bit irresponsible not to fess up but i can see why he didnt tell he was embarrased

in such a situation...i think i would have done what your husband did...but if i was caught i would have admitted the guilt....As human being most of us would agree what your husband did...
