I’ve just nipped to Tesco and bought the dodgiest combination of things ever!...

[FuckyDuzz]

I didn’t even realise till I’ve just gone to put it away

I bought -
A ready meal for one
Bottle of wine
Bag of maltesers
&
A cucumber 🤦🏻‍♀️

The cashier asked me if I had anything exciting planned for the weekend and I said ‘no this is about as exciting as it gets for me these days’
🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

I can never go in there again can I?!

Was that all she had Knitted ???

Yes, until her (adult) children put 2 bars of chocolate in the trolley.

I hate going in for just milk and toilet roll (always the items that are the first to run out in my house) - makes it look like all you do is drink tea and poo.

I don’t think it was your list more the conversation. 😂😂

My shop the other day (mid-afternoon, toddler in tow): a litre of gin, two bags of sugar. Naturally the cashier had to comment

In my defence, I'm making damson gin this week...

@Knittedfairies
The woman in front of me at the supermarket yesterday had 10 lots of garlic (three bulbs in each net) in her trolley, along with 3 packs of toilet rolls.

I wonder if she had worms?

I laughed out loud at that op, definitely the exciting as it gets comment

Not quite the same as the others, but when I was heavily pregnant with my second baby, I stood in the queue in Sainsbury's holding my toddler's hand.
My basket contained a bottle of cough syrup, a pack of tena lady, a chocolate lollipop and a massive cream cake. I was feeling very sorry for myself!

I once went to Waitrose and purchased just three items: curry, toilet rolls and bleach. I wasn’t planning on having the shits after he curry but I’m sure the cashier reckoned that’s what I was thinking.

I purchased candles and Sekt (German sparkling wine) and condoms once. I didn’t realise the signals they sent out

I have stood behind a lady buying a cucumber and lube and wine. We did have a smirk to ourselves

Op! I've been thinking it's been ages since anything made me really laugh on MN, and your shopping and the question about your exciting plans for the weekend just gave me a good giggle!

Hahaha sometimes I do look at someone's basket and think 'fuck, that looks like a good night'.

I was at our local Tesco express petrol station a couple of weeks ago (mid-evening chocolate run) and the customer at the till next to mine was buying wine, presumably thought his luck might be in and asked the cashier if they had any 3-packs of condoms.

"Sorry, no - we've only got them in 6-packs"

"Oh ... are you sure you don't have any 3's?"

"Nah, just 6-packs. Do you want one then?"

"....er.............. No"

This is my favourite thread of the day.

My friend and I were choosing a cucumber to pack for our duke of Edinburgh camping expedition, we were at school so prob age 15. We were trying to decide which one was largest as we were going to cut it up for a snack as weather really hot. A random middle aged man interrupted "I know what you two are planning to do with that!".

Grim because we were 15. But it must have looked like a fairly odd conversation!

I needed a cucumber for a salad last week and forgot to put it in the online order. Told dh I was off to buy a cucumber and he dared me to buy a tub of Vaseline too. I declined.

Some of these are absolutely hilarious! 😆Especially the gin and coat hangers 😱!

Sunnysidegold you’re reminds me, I once went in to the chemist and bought the morning after pill and a tub of sudocrem 😐 and no they weren’t both for me!!

We got looks from the lady in Costco as my husband bought a load of spicy food, we bought a bulk load of bleach and 48 loo rolls!

Today I bought some bonjela and a bag of curly kale. Make of that what you will...

I once stood behind someone at the checkout who was buying a six pack of Newcastle Brown and two large jars of sauerkraut. I'm pretty sure that my gut would explode if I tried to feed it that combination and nothing else.

I had a friend who got a weird look buying duct tape, a hammer and those plastic things you lay down before painting.

I'm pretty sure they thought he was a serial killer

Am I being stupid? I don’t get the gin and hangers one .

I bought a cucumber, shampoo, painkillers, and custard yesterday.
