Embarrassing moment, only in 2020!

So this happened in Sainsbury’s yesterday.

I was doing my weekly shop, and decided to buy some new knives as mine are all blunt, and these knives were on offer. Well, it seems that sometimes knives can be sharp when they’re still in their packaging, who’d have thunk it?

So, I get to the till and see that my knives have stabbed a pack of frozen peas, and a yogurt. There are peas in yogurt everywhere. All over the trolley, on the floor. It’s a pea vs dairy showdown. But that’s not the worst part! Oh no!

In the carnage, I had managed to get a sizeable amount of yogurt on my hand. I panicked. Lick it off! Screamed my inner voice. So, I brought my hand up to my mouth to lick the yogurt off. Only, like a good citizen, I was wearing a mask...

So, whilst making eye contact with the horrified cashier, I proceeded to wipe a handful of yogurt down the front of my mask. It was horrible. It stank. It was dripping.

That’s the story of why I can’t go in Sainsbury’s anymore.

Ah but you can! ‘‘Tis the beauty of wearing a mask, they won’t recognise you, just so long as you change the mask Grin

😂 thanks for the giggle OP. I hope you recover from the yoghurtgate shame and feel able to return to Sainsburys shortly.

Local supermarket is on the main road in a row of shops, but there's a wide alleyway between them and the next shop. They put the main entrance in the alleyway and at night they bung all the trolleys in there and drop some shutters.

Behind them is the car park. Some of us live on the roads behind the shop, we approach through the car park. Its a bit of a pointless trek to walk round the main road to the front of the shop, and it was pissing it down.
I trundle up to the main entrance and the guy who stand there begging is there wearing a face mask, and every so often he pulls it down to take a swig out of his can. So I ignore him and get a trolley, and think 'this is fantastic there's no one here, there no queue or anything, I'm just going to walk straight in! And I did.

I walk into the store and there's furious muffled shouting behind me. It was not the homeless beggar. It was a volunteer who was put in charge of the fucking humongous queue, and he's made them all stand in the pouring rain down the main road. I'm in the shop now and the whole queue is glaring at me through the big glass window and thats why I can never go back.
