Help with 90's purse ad

[meandchi]

My brother is trying to remember what an ad was for where some kids knocked a womens purse off a pile of boxes and looked like they were going to steal it but then gave it back to her....vaguely remember it myself but can't remember what it was for - any ideas?

This ones driving me crazy as I can almost see it.
If its the same one, the woman is standing out side a green grocers type shop, on the street talking to the green grocer when the boys rush past, after he gives her back her purse as hes catching up with his mates and they give him the product either a drinks can or chocolate bar and he takes a sip or a bite from it.

Does that sound right?
