The life of a sample lady

Today at Costco I was the sample lady for body butter and this lady came by with her teenage son and said, "Where are the toasters?" I stood there for a minute just staring at her and trying to think where the toasters were kept, and then the mother and son began laughing. I was very confused and just kept staring at them. What could be so funny about where the toasters were kept? Then, the son explained that it was a joke. I still didn't get why that was so funny until he explained their "joke" to me and said "toaster . . . toast . . . body butter . . . you put butter on toast."
After a quick laugh, the mother and son left me still wondering where in Costco the toasters were.
