I found a shopping list!

[crunchie12]

My dreams have come true

Doesn’t sound like the most adventurous shopper does it?
Very pedestrian basic foodstuffs and household essentials.
They may take the exotic leap to chilli, but are not entirely sure if they’re brave enough!

I like 'meals' I sometimes get frustrated writing a shopping list and just write 'dinners' and let DH work out the details!

Is it a Northerner?
I only know of Northerner's using the term "Pop"

Welsh people use the word pop too!

meals someone ran out of ideas!

@IAmFrauBlucher ah I shall add that to my local terms list then.

West Midlands here, we say pop. Not even sure why, was talking about this at work a few weeks ago, and wondered where pop came from?

I reckon meals is "ready meals"

South coast here, and we say 'pop'.

Berkshire here, parents call it pop.

I found one too, in a Waitrose trolley.

I love it! X, Y, Z, oh and "meals". What about a one word list "Stuff"

Ah, the Waitrose shopper is clearly as lacking in ideas as the OP’s shopper. “Dinner” maybe they hope that walking round the store will provide the necessary inspiration.

I also felt a bit sorry for them with their blocked nose and blocked sink!

I wonder if the sink unblocked is a back up in case the nose spray doesn't work.

First one's a bit uninspiring

Waitrose one, I wonder what the squiggle under Choc Ices means?

" ... and wondered where pop came from?" Fizzy pop, I expect.

@HankNPat looks like it says "Irish" under choc ices

Think it maybe says fish?

Oh, Irish what though?!!!

Fish

West midlanders use the word "pop" too

I like the Waitrose one, can just imagine them thinking 'oh I need something to unblock my bloody nose, oh, that reminds me... sink unblocker.

I'm another that writes 'dinner for Tues' and then get annoyed with DH because I write the day so he thinks about the kids activities that day and chooses a meal that can fit round the tooing and throughing.

I found this one in Sainsbury's. Waitrose clearly more sophisticated

And that Waitrose list has reminded me I forgot shower unblocker and breadsticks

I write "dinner meat" or just "meat" and "lunch stuff" on my list because I know in my head what meat/lunch foods I want to get. Don't think there's anything wrong with writing "dinners" or "meals". Surely you don't need to write everything in minute detail if it's in your head anyway?

They should try chilli jam. That'd give their oh/dc a shock when they bit in to the lovingly prepared packed lunch wouldn't it? not that I've ever done that to my dh
