Three of the Nita's customers are listed in consecutive order in both clues
4 and 6: one person bought a Lemon Ice, then Kerrie made a purchase, and then
the Lou's Pizza employee was in Nita's (clue 4); while the TTT Cellular
employee, Jeff, and the one who enjoyed a Coffee Custard came in consecutively
(6). There must be some commonality between the clues: either Jeff bought the
Lemon Ice or Jeff works at Lou's Pizza. If Jeff had bought the Lemon Ice,
combining clues 4 and 6, four consecutive customers would have been the TTT
Cellular employee, Jeff (buying the Lemon Ice), Kerrie (having a Coffee
Custard), and the Lou's Pizza worker. Since Ian doesn't work at Lou's Pizza
(7), by clue 2, Ian would have been the 1st customer; and the ITT Cellular
employee would have had an Oreo Mint Blendo. However, there is no way for
clue 3 to work given this ordering. In clues 4 and 6, then, four customers
in consecutive order were the person who had a Lemon Ice, Kerrie from the
TTT Cellular store, Jeff from Lou's Pizza, and the person who bought a
Coffee Custard. By clue 3, either the 1st customer bought a Mango Gelati or
Jeff had a Mango Gelati. If the 1st customer had the Mango Gelati, the Cutz
Salon employee would have bought a Lemon Ice (3). However, since Ian doesn't
work at the Cutz Salon (7), there is no way for clue 2 to work given this
arrangement. So, Jeff enjoyed a Mango Gelati; and the Cutz Salon employee
bought a Coffee Custard (3). Since Ian doesn't work at Cutz (7), by clue 2,
Ian bought a Lemon Ice; and Kerrie had an Oreo Mint Blendo. Since Monique
didn't have a Coffee Custard (1), by clue 5, she was Friday's 5th customer
with the Cutz employee 4th; and Ian works at Exotic Pets. By elimination,
Lisa works at Cutz; while Monique works at Boardwalk Subs and had a Chocolate
Cherry Mist. In sum, Friday's first five customers
at Nita's Water Ice were
- 1st -- Ian, Exotic Pets, Lemon Ice
- 2nd -- Kerrie, TTT Cellular, Oreo Mint Blendo
- 3rd -- Jeff, Lou's Pizza, Mango Gelati
- 4th -- Lisa, Cutz Salon, Coffee Custard
- 5th -- Monique, Boardwalk Subs, Chocolate Cherry Mist
