And leaving their car at the pump? At 5 o clock on a weekday??

I'n sat at Tesco Express waiting for diesel. About four or five cars queueing at each pump. People are taking ages..... Then coming out armed with bags of shopping.

AIBU or should you save your leisurely perusal of groceries for a supermarket with PROPER PARKING???

Surely the petrol station is just to grab the few essentials that you need, pay up quick then move your freaking car????

Grin Yes. But sometimes you really need a few bits, then you see a few more and before you know it, you've got 3 bags! Blush

Not the one near me - It's a proper M&S petrol station. But I take ages and park in the wee car park next to the petrol pumps [bgrin]

You should move your car before you do the shopping

At our local tesco express petrol station there are signs up saying if you wish to browse in the shop after filling up with petrol, to move your car to one of the parking bays beforehand.

Thank you ! Grin

If I need something I run in and as I'm dashing round, by brain is going;

dog food, bread, ketchup, dog food, bread, ketchup, dog food, bread etc etc

Tesco Express is not the place for wandering around the aisles, looking for culinary inspiration FFS
