To be childish enough to find this funny?

This is what happens when you're bored in the herbs & spices section of the supermarket. Not something I've done, but I'm very tempted!

I think its funny too! I would have been smirking all round the shop

LittleMissIntrovert · 16/09/2015 19:26

I'm childish too and would find it hilarious!

Maybe it should be a new thing, we've had shopping lists and the divider at the till, now we could make words!

PHANTOMnamechanger · 16/09/2015 19:27

divider at the till??? please explain!

Twowrongsdontmakearight · 16/09/2015 19:29

Love it!

EponasWildDaughter · 16/09/2015 19:29

I would have really laughed at this Grin

TurnOffTheTv · 16/09/2015 19:30

I still do the divider at the till :-)

Pedestriana · 16/09/2015 19:35

Ah, I've done the divider at the till.

Generally you place it vertically on the conveyer belt to indicate the end of your shopping. In the game, you place it horizontally. It freaks people out and they always correct it.

please explain divider at the till someone? desperate to know what I am missing.

PHANTOMnamechanger · 16/09/2015 19:37

for a minute I thought you were saying you stand it up on end!!

Now that really would freak people out!

I rearranged some mugs with letters on them in Matalan once. They read 'WILLY' when I walked away Grin Next time I went in there the mug display had been moved to a rack by the tills. Spoilsports.

Fatmomma99 · 16/09/2015 19:43

I'm shopping tomorrow and will try and do both the spices and divider. But I have a very low tech phone, so may not be able to take photos to prove my derring-do!

Gatehouse77 · 16/09/2015 19:44

Nah, that appeals to my sense of humour too Grin

RaptorInaPorkPieHat · 16/09/2015 19:51

I do this.

It's also fun to do with those 'HOME' 'BATH' 'LOVE' 'NOEL' type decorations (which may be why they now come already stuck together)

RaptorInaPorkPieHat · 16/09/2015 19:55

I'm also the annoying person that sets off all those singing cuddly toys and legs it

I do it a lot in Matalan. Cushions, mugs and glasses.
I'm 55 Grin

Pedestriana · 16/09/2015 20:42

There was also one, obviously by a MN-er!

M&S have a lovely display of mugs for every letter of the alphabet. I have been so tempted to do some rearranging but am not brave enough. Not just sweary mugs but M&S sweary mugs.

SavoyCabbage · 16/09/2015 21:37

Raptor, I was wondering who else but truly dedicated 'Deal or no Deal' fans would want a sigh that said Noel...Grin????In my defence I've been up since 5am.

Sidge · 16/09/2015 21:45

I laughed at this!

A few weeks ago I was in a large branch of Asda and they had loads of mugs with initial letters on them. Somebody had very kindly arranged them to read:

BOOBIES

Muskey · 16/09/2015 21:55

I have never done this but I am so going to do it the next time I'm going shopping which is tomorrow yay. I have a new game to while away the hours

Grin That marjoram in the op's photo's a bit pricey!
