1. The joke is set up to where you expect the punchline to be some witty deduction about the items she bought, but it's not, it's something completely different, the surprise and misdirection is one element, especially the bluntness of it.
2. When people drink the cliche is that they usually think people look prettier than they really do, which means she must really be ugly.
It's mean but to me it's still funny. It wouldn't be funny if it happened in real life though.
