If you go back and get the item before the person in front of you has finished being served, you’re not losing any of your preciously short life, are you?

You’re heading to the till when you accidentally drop a full alpro vanilla yoghurt which smashes, caking your shoe and leaving a right mess on the floor. Do you do what I did and wipe the mess of your shoe and then leave an upturned basket over the floor mess alerting other customers of the hazard or do you do something else that I don’t really care about?

You go to the banana shelf to pick up a bunch of bananas. Upon arriving, you see only six single bananas sadly scattered around the expanse of the banana shelf, all are either bruised, split or overripe. You:

  • Commit hara-kiri
  • Ask a staff member if there are any more bananas “round the back”
  • Pull out the fresh unopened box of bananas they usually store underneath the banana shelf and feel like a hero, prick
  • Buy a bag of apples instead

Anyone notice that if you sidle up to someone who’s at the same bit of shelf you need, staring at a product on the shelf, deep in thought, clearly been there a long time considering whether they want the item…

…that your mere presence snaps them out of their trance and they immediately move away and decide not to purchase it.

I’d probably save face and go to an entirely different shop to buy said eggs

This happened to me recently.
Wanted to make paella.
Had my heart set on paella.
Got to sainos
No paella rice
Asked the staff
Still no paella rice

Totally threw me off. Had to have fucking risotto instead.

Recently i’ve started working through my list an item at a time rather than being a lemming and going up and down the aisles in order. It’s great. Annoys people and it’s quicker.

Bullet to the back of the head even if it’s eleven items and two of them are grapes.

Well I still don’t believe you’ve never eaten baked beans in your life, so we’re at an impasse.

You get to the eggs section and they’re mostly sold out. The only eggs still available are “Farm Fresh” which you’re pretty sure means cage eggs. However you’ve been hankering for a plain omelette all day! Do you

  • Buy a box anyway, you always get caged eggs.
  • Buy a box, but promise yourself you’ll buy free range / organic next time, you swear.
  • Wonder why you’re looking at the egg shelf, you don’t eat eggs. Maybe you should see a doctor, this sort of thing has been happening a lot lately.
  • Smash up all of the eggs in protest at the conditions the chickens live.
  • Go without eggs this time.
  • Plead with a member of staff to check the store room for you.
  • Buy powdered egg instead.

I usually only realise I forgot something either midway through self-service checkout or just after so I then do a second round to buy it.

If only the world worked in a more karmic way. Sadly, overly considerate people usually get taken advantage of.

asking if they have more ‘round the back’

When you’re at the checkout and you hear the beep do you?

  • Think of the fun you could be having on Supermarket Sweep!
  • Fuck off mate, not time for nostalgic trivia, trying to squeeze these avacados and double IPAs into my Fjällräven Kanken

why would you do it in a supermarket but no in an independent shop?
