Little treats you always/very often get yourself when you go to the supermarket

when you do the big shop, are there things you always stick in the trolley just as a little reward?

I always, without fail, buy a packet of 49p Morrisons Savers chocolate chip cookies, and more often than not I’ll pick up a smoked cheese in the orange tube and 30 cocktail sausages to have a go on while I’m making dinner.

I’ve been making a concerted effort to try and stop doing this, because I live 50m from the supermarket, and am very forgetful, so would end up having three or so “treats” a day nipping over there and buying things.

But in answer to your question:
Milka (usually the Oreo one since it’s cheapest)
Chocolate covered raisins
Kaneelbroodje / Chocolatbroodje / Cookies
Little cheesecake
Red Band Funky Gummies
Borrelnoten

One of the shops I go to sells croissants sliced in half and filled with custard and whenever I go on my own I pick one up and eat it in the carpark before driving home.

Tesco finest white chocolate and honeycomb cookies

It depends who’s with me on the shop. If I’m shopping by myself I buy lots of ‘treats for the house’ and then I’ll buy myself a mars bar reward for doing the shop all by myself.

If my wife and son come with me I’m much better behaved and that has positives and negatives.

The cheapo bags of sweets like strawberry laces

Oh yeah, always a rummage through the reduced section in case something piques my interest.

don’t really do it in Spain tbh.

Depends which shop I’m in, really. But there’s no way in hell I’m leaving a Lidl without a fresh baked pain au raisin (if they have them).
