Here's an unlikely one from Rosemary Zwick:

I walked into a Starbucks with a buy-one-get-one-free coupon for a
Grande Latte. I handed it to the girl and she looked over at a little
chalkboard that said, "buy one-get one free."

"They're already buy-one-get-one-free," she said, "so I guess they're
both free." She handed me my free lattes and I walked out the door.
