Definitely Not "Free"To-Lay: Woman Arrested For Trading Sex For Chips

You know you’re in a recession when you have to barter starchy snacks for oral sex.

An Oklahoma woman was in court this month to address charges that she traded sexual favors for a $30 case of Frito-Lay chips. The woman, 36-year-old Lahoma Sue Smith, told police her ‘client’ said he didn’t have any money but that she could have the case of chips on his back seat instead.

Smith had to pay a $1,142 fine, but her client was let off — even though he’s obviously a frequent user of um, potatoes: The police report notes that the arresting officer “observed an additional case of chips, Frito-Lay, in the front seat of [the John’s] pick-up.”
