I was in Tesco today and a man sprayed his armpits with deodorant

Then went and opened mouthwash and had a gargle (then swallowed) and then used some hair gel.
I'm thinking he had a hot date.

Off the shelf??

He was obviously trying to impress you!

Cocolapew · 15/05/2019 21:50

Yes Gremlins. He then put them back after using them .
He had a four pack of Guinness (unopened). He was ready to party.

People have no shame!

I was in Lidl (where a box of tissues costs about 50p) Someone had opened the tissue box and taken out a handful of tissues to blow his nose (we have to hope!!) and put the open box back on the shelf rather than buying it. Ffs!

I may have used to do this with Impulse body spray when I was about 12 Blush

My dad once went shopping with a friend who opened a jam jar, licked the top of the jam, closed the lid and put it back because apparently she didn’t like it. Needless to say that didn’t stay friends and now he categorically refuses to take the first hat on the shelf and has to take one from behind.

Was it Lynx Africa? I find that very evocative.

Saw a man moisturise his face and arms in an Asda aisle then put the bottle back...wouldn’t happen in Waitrose Wink

I was telling DD and she saw a woman spraying her face, arms and legs with spray tan in Superdrug.
Said it was going everywhere Confused

Boogles, DD never takes the first of anything, "just in case" Grin

Spray tan??? Grin

IHaveBrilloHair · 15/05/2019 22:01

I once saw a woman in my then local shop, crouch down to pick something up, and it was very clear she wasnt wearing pants.

WednesdaySpinner · 15/05/2019 22:01

If he was prepared to swallow mouthwash and then move onto his hair without flinching then fair play to him! Grin

Cocolapew · 15/05/2019 22:01

Maybe tan lady was the hot date.

There was a lady in m&s one morning putting the mascara on and then walking off.
People are cheeky buggers

I can't get over the SWALLOWING MOUTHWASH ShockShockShock

That's so disgusting tasting

IHaveBrilloHair · 15/05/2019 22:03

I almost wish she'd used the shop deodorant on herself.

FaffyFaffington · 15/05/2019 22:03

Cheeky, but when I was a bright young thing working in central Lindon it was common for me and female colleagues to go into a big Boots after work for a spray of tester perfume and a bit of lipstick (not applied directly to lips! From fingers to lips) before a big night out Grin.

Cocolapew · 15/05/2019 22:04

He had 4 tears tattooed on his face and something on his forehead, he probably was well hard.
I didn't want to look to close in case he thought he'd pulled 😄

And usually contains a load of alcohol. Maybe he needed the Dutch courage for his hot date

Cocolapew · 15/05/2019 22:06

DH tried to argue that putting deodorant on was the same as testing perfume. Hmm
