As my daughter lifted a pack of chicken breasts, there it lay. Hidden.

@KatyaKabanova It's just about finding someone else's shopping list. It's a window into their soul, apparently. @Grepes explains it pretty well.

You can imagine who they are and how their evening is about to unfold. Or not, as the case may be.

Oh, I see. Thank you. I genuinely didn't understand!

Third attempt...I'm in Norfolk though so it's still a slim chance..

I may have to make up something exciting instead after all this suspense...

You should've made something up. 0/10.

I can’t really fathom why it was something worth taking a picture of, let alone creating a thread and making three attempts to attach the picture.

this reminds me of a time when i was poorly and my friend took me out shopping.. i picked up my list and off i went.

knowing i wasn't well and a bit confused there was one word on the list i just could not make out. i spent 10 minutes staring at this word, i even showed it to my friend thinking they might know... nothing.

turns out the friend had writted a sqiggle on my list and found it hilarious..

Thought it was going to say

Condoms, lube, extra large cucumber

Dollybantree · 21/10/2024 15:51

MUSHROOMS??!!!

These people are clearly demented.

Or lube, fish slice, beaker

FlibbertyGibbitt · 21/10/2024 15:51

There’s a facebook group called “other people’s shopping lists” love looking through them 🤣🤣🤣

Damnloginpopup · 21/10/2024 15:52

Yeah. Too much build up. It's all in the finding rather than the content (for those here long enough to know) but in my defence it's Norfolk, Monday, and wintery. It's not really going to get any more interesting until May really.

I once wrote an extensive shopping list and forgot a few items.
I wrote the items on the back, explained to dh I’d forgotten them and off he went to the supermarket and bought the first list all over again!
He doesn’t listen and I should have used a clean piece of paper or lost my first list.

Ah ha, here we are, I like the fact that it says "Refer a friend"

I agree. Mushrooms are the food of Satan.
They're fungi with black gills (shudders).

Refer them for what? 🤔

That list wasn't intended for you. Since it doesn't include organic hummus I'm guessing it's a hit list intended for an assassin. As someone else said, put it back and try to forget.

.....unless it's orgasmic hummus? 💁🏻‍♀️

Then it’s for a very friendly assassin

I remember when we used to post shopping lists we had found. It was fun.
MN was a different place then.

I have a strong dislike for those who use random capital and lower case in the same phrase. Not acceptable

ForeverDelayedEpiphany · 21/10/2024 15:58

Another one lol

"A few bets"..! 🤣

Loving the bets one!
I'm also pleased that some people have the same diet as the UK norm in 1975.
No hummus here!

Can someone explain?

Someone already did. Apparently people with no life think these finds are fascinating 🤷

DoIWantTo · 21/10/2024 16:02

Aww I thought it was a Naice Ham shopping list!
