Oh my gosh I'm crying Grin trying really hard to not wake the DC.

Chris Witty's covid rolling pins- one for each nose!! Grin

mynameischloe · 11/09/2022 22:31

Or nostril!

I'm having a shitty night but this has really cheered me up! Next time I go to the hospital and they give me a face mask I think I'll brandish my rolling pin and tell them I've got it covered!

It's to beat you with for still wearing "face coverings" probably on your own whilst walking down the street, or driving alone in your fiat punto

That's made me laugh so much. A rolling pin instead of a face mask?!

Amazing!! Really made me laugh. Can we have a full thread just on supermarket swaps please

There have been threads in the past and it’s been so funny

one mnetter received party poppers instead of tampons…..they both have strings i suppose

?

I still have to wear face coverings to go and visit my mum. She's in a nursing home and no mask, no visit.

Absolutely brilliant, Chris Witty's rolling pins 🤣. I got 4 x 500g tubs of stain remover instead of 1 x 1kg tub in my last shop which made me laugh but this is the best substitution ever.

Pantie liners, just stick on face, job done 😂

Can only assume it was to beat off anyone who came near me looking like they might have covid

Grin I like the idea.

CactusBlossom · 12/09/2022 18:49

Rubber gloves?

I remember ordering rubber gloves, and Tesco decided on Brillo pads as a substitute 🤣

ThistleTits · 12/09/2022 19:00

@Isthisreasonable
Yes, I can see why the picked that... not lol

Pants0nFir3 · 12/09/2022 19:08

Condoms!

Roselilly36 · 12/09/2022 19:16

Nearest item the picker could grab, I was sent some carrots instead of fishfingers during lockdown 😂

Justkidding55 · 12/09/2022 19:19

Hehee 😂

A three pack of pineapples.

That made me laugh out loud! 😂One pineapple is just not enough hey?

mamabear715 · 12/09/2022 19:22

Rolling pin.. giggles.. WHY? :-)

Creepymanonagoatfarm · 12/09/2022 19:26

At least carrots and fish fingers are both orange!

They are still required in health care settings and by some countries on arrival so no need to be bitchy.
