Love the milk situation. I've gotten a number from that exact approach, and the funny thing was I texted her the next day, she texts back a long apology saying that she's already in a relationship. Maybe that was IHAB after the fact, but it's not the first time that's happened. I think chicks in relationships will still give out numbers and then a day later get the guilts.
At the end of the conversation: "hey you seem cool, let's go get coffee/see a show/rob a bank, what's your number?" It's not rocket science.
If I like talking to the chick I ALWAYS go for the number, no matter how weak the situation. I'd rather have a 1% likelihood of success than a 0%, especially when it costs me nothing. I don't care how bad the odds on Powerball are, if someone offers me a free ticket, I'll take it.
Awesome - being aware & observant is a big asset.
You have to think about not scaring the cat, you can get this reaction if you catch her unawares for example approaching from behind. Maybe you could've been smoother. But on the other hand, the gamer chick type is stereotypically socially retarded anyway and could well have been surprised someone was actually speaking to her. Her problem, not yours.

I walk up to her a bit later as she's getting into her car. I "Damn. Tough crowd in there huh?" She rolled her eyes and laughed and said something like "I don't know that you can afford to be really mean when you work in a gas station" or something like that. We talked for a few minutes - I almost certainly should have gone for _something_ but as I'm kind of new to this I didn't know what to do or ask for to move things forward. Maybe someone could advise.

A fairly attractive woman in her mid to late 30s in line with me at the supermarket had a kid about one year old sitting in the shopping cart with her, doing that wide-eyed looking all around thing with mouth agape that little kids often do. Directed at him I said something like "I know buddy. It's a complicated situation. You'll figure it all out eventually, welcome to the world!" She laughed and gave me a huge smile.

Sort of chubby short girl pierced "gamer chick" in her 20s in the supermarket wearing a hooded sweatshirt with the logo of a video game on it that I recognized. I walked by her and smiled and said a well-known quote from the same game that I remembered.
She laughed extremely nervously, and looked at me with huge scared wild eyes as if I were a psychopath. It does seem to happen with that "type" sometimes.
