my boyfriend's daughter when she was about 5 or 6, everytime they drove by the ABC store (Alcoholic Beverage Stores in the States) she would beg her dad to take her into the "toy" store. She refused to believe that they didn't sell toys until he took her in and showed her that all they had was bottles!!
