Can I join in and moan about the woman on the bakery counter this morning. Where did they find her? SnailsRUs?

What did the bread bint do?

but that is what happens when i go into the supermarket. i am normally a nice polite person....but not there.
i had all my shopping on the belt thingy and the bread was at the end so it didn't get squashed. went through checkout and the bint was moving all my bread around...i was not best pleased(picture 2shoes with steam comming out of her head) she had no reason to touch it.

i hate the super market that's why i have started to do it online every one at work is like your at home all day why do you get it delivererd, i just can not bear to go there i makes me angry, and then taxi driver will dump it all half way down the street and it just AWFUL

morrisons is the supermarket i hate the most why do all the old dears have to stand blocking the aisles caling!!

Why do old farts shop in supermarkets at the weekend. They have all week to shop, but no, there they are going very slowly around the supermarket on a Saturday.

I think a law should be passed stopping people over 65 shopping at Supermarkets on a Saturday/Sunday.

OOh, cheshire that makes me cross. How judgemental. Many old people still have to work these days- no or very small pension.
I was berrated in a shopping centre yesterday for being thre at lunch time with my baby whilst everyone was rushing to get their lunches.
The man said the same thing to me.

it used to drive me mad when I was single and child free when mothers with babies and toddlers always seemed to be in the post office and supermarket at lunchtime my precious lunchbreak when I wanted to get something quickly that is until I had my dc and realised it took that long for me to get myself and dc fed dressed and out of the house

Now I hope Im more tolerant of people in the supermarket, old people I think use it as a social thing, I used to use tescos and asda as somewhere to go to see other adults when dc were small anything rather than stare at four walls.

but I still cant stand anyone squashing my bread there is a limit to my tolerance, dont ever let your dh, dp or the person on the till pack your bread it always ends up squashed and mishapen

I was once waiting in a queue and another till opened up, but because there were other people in front of me, I didn't move into the new queue ahead of them (I'm obviously far too polite sometimes). Some silly moo stood behind me jabbed me really hard in between the shoulder blades and when I turned around shouted 'There's another till open you know!' right in my face. That really annoyed me. Can't say anyone's ever manhandled my bread though

i hate it when people touch my softs at the end, or put their bottles near my eggs.

i pack everything then pay , if you pay then pack people get shirty. also the people who stand behind me with a full trolly and they have a tin of corned beef and tut, go to 5 and under t*.

why do families go supermarket shopping?

tissues, used in trolleys, yuk.

going on a sunday to m and s at 11 am, no yorkshires, gravy or beef, wyf?
do you think iabu?

dont get me started about old biddies.

oh how clever

more ageism

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

(just wait till you're old, unloved and can't shop in your big car once a week)

im getting one of those mini scooter things they all terrorise us on.

I hate shopping so I just do it online.

My mum was running into people the Saturday before Christmas cos she was doing her shopping while having a stroke!! I still cannot believe she was in such denial about her health to do that!

Why don't you just not go to supermarkets then?
They are shit, they are putting all the little shops out of business and they don't actually care about anybody.

This is probably a bad thread for me to read. A number of things make me cross at the supermarket. Kids running around all over between trolleys and getting in people's way, or parents who let their toddlers walk freely through a busy supermarket (I'm terrified I might not see the toddler and bump them with the trolley). Parking (nightmare, and we won't even delve into the evil parent & child parking debate!). People who stand directly behind you with their trolley (and you don't see them as you are looking at the cheese or whatever), and then SIGH or worse yet, push their trolley into you to get you to move (it's called "excuse me" and it's really NOT that difficult to say). Or people that push their way through back and forth and everywhere with their trolleys, regardless of others. But by far, worse is those who stand in a little group of trolleys and people in the middle of an aisle and chat, blocking it from both sides (and when you say excuse me and try to get through, they give you a dirty look - if you want to chat, go to the cafe, for heaven's sake!).
Yes, I think you can safely deduce that I was at the supermarket earlier today.

I just cannot understand why anyone who had the choice not to shop on a Sat/Sun would not take it.

If older people still have to work during the week fair enough, but people like my MIL refuses to let my sister in law take her shopping during the week as Saturday has always been her shopping day, and everyone knows the world will end if she shops at the supermarket on another day.

And when I am old and slow, you bet your bottom dollar I will not be shopping on a Saturday. Tescos on line here I come.

I love going to the supermarket

Me and dp go round holding hands planning meals for the next week. We are weird...

The thing that really pisses me off is when the customer in front won't move out of the way.

I always get my bank card ready in my hand so I can put it in the machine as soon as the cashier's finished scanning everything, then by the time the card malrky's gone thru, everythings packed, in the trolley and ready to go.

In our Waitrose, the fashion seems to be to pack everything incredibly slowly, keeping everyone waiting, then find your purse, then slowly slowly slowly put your card in the reader then spend ages putting your pin no in then spending ages putting your card and receipt back in your purse in just the right section then put your purse back in your handbag then zip your handbag up very very slowly.

In the meantime, the cashier's have obviously been trained not to put my stuff through until Mrs Snaily Arse has finished faffing around.

I'm really going to kill someone soon.

I'm with you mumble - I've always got card out ready when stuff starts going through but I always get behind the person who stares into space until everything is through, needing packed and needing to be paid for, and then there is the hunt for the purse etc.

And I know I should be tollerant (sp?) having two kids of my own, but I hate hearing mums at the end of their tether screaming at there kids to "f"ing come here or I'll smack you in front of everyone". Makes me sad.

"their" not there oops
