To take the best pastries? (Light hearted)

Lidl only had two of those new toffee yum yum pastries left. Have you ever tried them? They are like a donut, soft pastry with toffee icing and caramel sauce in the middle...mmmm! Anyway I wanted to buy two of them as last time I only bought one and instantly regretted it! But they had just 2 left - very small, maybe could have been accidentally touched by another human and one looked like some of it had already been ripped off and eaten... I noticed (by looking...) that there was a whole new box in their oven. So instead of getting the 2 rubbishy ones I spent ageeeees doing my shop in the hope that by the time I came back the new ones would be out. They weren't :( but th shop assistant was putting out new pastries so I waited around and pretended to browse (and really browse. I bought more chocolate...) hoping he'd put more out. He didn't. So I reluctantly took the 2 that were left. However as I slowly moved away he came back and noticed they needed restocking so I did some more "browsing" and came back to take 2 more - and wow! they looked delicious. Big and round and never before touched by a hungry customer. So I eagerly bagged 2 up and on my way to the till I discarded the bag of the 2 inferior toffee yum yums in another isle by plonking them down as I walked past...

Was IBU? My tummy says no... Grin

Can't think properly after reading that discretion BUT I am going to Lisl tomorrow now so you're not unreasonable for the tip about the pastries alone!

Discretion?! Description!

nah, you earned them hanging around that long, think I may have left the bag next to the actual pastries though rather than at a random site in the shop and i would have bought 6
