So about two weeks ago my job had me run up to Office Max to get a ink cartridge. There was this very cute girl working the cash register. She asked me about my job and I asked how she liked hers and it just seemed like there was something there. I went in again last week just to buy an item as an excuse to talk to her again. This time they were pretty busy though and all I could really do was say hello and ask her how she was. She seemed kind of nervous actually. Maybe she likes me? I want to go in again tomorrow and just say something like, "So what do you like to do when you're not working?" To let her know I'm interested...then get her number. Good idea?
Want to ask this girl out tomorrow possibly..

Just go in there have some small talk then ask her if she's single and if so you'd like her number. Study her reaction forget about your interest level in her...does she hand it over with enthusiasm e.g "great here you go I'm free next thursday evening and I love thai food" 
Also dont take it personally if she doesn't seem interested. I've walked up to girls I knew after summoning courage for a good 1hr or so then have them laugh at me. Can hurt...but the quicker you get it over and done with the better. Because even if they turn you down they know that internally you've had a small victory and they will respect you.

Your thinking too much and your going to make this a bigger deal than it really is in your head.
Cruise in there, by a couple items and then go for the close. Go when you have some time preferably so you can time your way to the register when its not busy.
Be direct, be confident and you'll be fine.
Remember a number doesn't really tell you much, her going out with you says she's interested.

Ah so I went in there today and it was awkward. I said hello how are you and she said good how are you. She saw my scrubs (I am a vet assistant) and asked me if I do surgerys. I said I help with them. Then I asked her what she liked to do when she wasn't working and she tells me she is an artist. "Oh, what kind of work do you do?" SHe tells me "Everything...painting, clay, etc." She asks me what I do and I tell her a musician and she say's oh that's cool you're an artist too. Then I say, "You should show me your work sometime." She goes, "Yeah, I could bring some stuff in sometime" I go, "We should hang out sometime." She goes, "I do have a fiance but I need to get out more." I just cut it after that and said ok have a nice day and walked out. It was awkward too because everytime I asked her a question she answered real fast and kind of nervous like. I don't know if I came off nervous and that made her nervous or what. This is the second girl I have "approached" in a week and she is with a guy. And both girls I thought were into me.

Don't look at it as having "bad luck" because the last two girls you approached are with guys. You should be proud that you had the courage to ask them in the first place. The fact that you asked is a victory itself. Not asking at all would have been much worse then being told that they have a boyfriend or a fiance. Be proud of what you have done and keep it up.

Small talk. She was helping you save face and trying to not make you feel ackward for telling you she's taken. She didn't want to just say, "No, I can't, I have a fiance." She put it very nicely and went with the flow. This is not the first time she's told that to somebody shopping at Office Max. Might or not be true, but she knows how to respond to that request in a non-intimidating and diplomatic way. She took it ok, and didn't want you to feel bad for asking.Tiguere said:
Good job on both approaches. As you see, girls are usually nice and will try to let you escape with dignity when having to turn you down. Most of the ones you approach will react possitively, even when they are no available.
