Yes, YABU. For some of us it's our only option. Imagine how that feels.

I adore Waitrose - it's the first place I visit when I come to England!

No I lurve Waitrose.

We go to Asda on a Saturday because it is nearby to ds's swim lessons. My dc and dh refer to it lovingly as "chaville". Please note it was them that made up the title NOT ME.

YABU and rude.

jkklpu · 01/11/2010 20:56

Just not OK to draw conclusions about people based solely on where they shop

Asdashopper · 01/11/2010 20:56

The Asda thread was not rude then

What about people who shop in Waitrose and Asda? I go to both. Expect lots of people do.......Prententious, moi? Grin

Waitrose customers are all bastards. A man in the pub told 'me.

ladylush · 01/11/2010 20:58

Maybe you're just more real on the Asda days? Grin

OP is taking the piss. She can't really be serious.......???

tethersend · 01/11/2010 20:59

Does it count if you just get your bits there?

ladylush · 01/11/2010 21:00

No cos then you're a wannabe waitrose shopper and that's even worse Grin

SpawnChorus · 01/11/2010 21:00

What happens if you shop in Waitrose AND Asda?

cornsilkpyrotechnicqueen · 01/11/2010 21:01

how do you know they're pretentious prats if you've never been?

juneybean · 01/11/2010 21:01

Yabu to call them pretentious prats, but I understand what you're getting at. I'm getting mildy hacked off at the double standards on MN lately.

juneybean · 01/11/2010 21:01

thisisyesterday · 01/11/2010 21:01
