She stole my sherry trifle!

[GoldAndSilverBells]

In a certain big supermarket this morning, I was getting a few last minute things, and I grabbed a sherry trifle. The last one! As I popped it into the trolley, a woman next to me sighed and huffed and puffed, and asked a shop assistant near me if they had any more. He said 'no, sorry.' The woman asked if any more were coming in tomorrow. He said 'I don't think we'll be having any more now til after Boxing day.' The woman scowled at me. I thought 'bloody hell it's not my fault I got the last one.'

I walked around the store and got some more things I needed, with the trifle placed at the bottom of the trolley where nothing could crush it, and the bloody woman seemed to be 10 feet behind me for the next 10 minutes I was in the store.

The last item I wanted was a loaf of bread. I reached up to check the dates, and popped the bread into the trolley. I started making my way back to the checkout, and noticed the trifle was gone! The woman in question was practically jogging to the self checkout! I followed quickly, and sure enough, she had my fecking sherry trifle! I said 'are you kidding me?! You've taken my bloody trifle!' She said 'no I didn't! I found this mixed in with the cheeses, it's mine.'

I knew she was lying, as there was no more left after I took mine, and now she has one and mine is gone! She definitely took my sherry trifle! I told a member of staff, but they said there's really nothing they can do, as technically no-one has stolen anything. I was so pissed off! Never going to get another one the day before Christmas, and I'm not chasing around the county to look for one. Also, this store is the only one I have seen selling sherry trifles!

On the way out, she smirked at me and said 'Merry Christmas!' I was like

AIBU to hope the sherry trifle gives her the shits?!

I went back in and got a raspberry trifle by the way, but I'm so pissed off.

P.s. No, I'm not making my own. It's too late to source all the ingredients now anyway!

May she step on a Lego in bare feet.

LOL that's true.

Maybe I WILL get one tomorrow (doubt it as the bloke said they're not likely to get any in before Boxing Day!) But I can hope.

It's not too late to source the ingredients? Most if not all could be bought at a corner shop.

She's an absolute cunt though. I had the fear someone was going to pinch my turkey I pre ordered yesterday while I was going round getting other bits. Nobody has ever done that before to me though.

I'd probably end up try and sabotage the trifle by grabbing it back and throwing it into the road if she pinched mine! Like "if I can't have it, nobody can!' 🤣

😆

And laced with beef (as well) like Rachel's trifle on Friends. 😆

Thank you! I can but hope. And pray for a Christmas (trifle) miracle! 🎄

Cheeky cow, but nothing like home made trifle. The supermarket would have had the ingredients, it’s pretty easy. I prefer non sherry though, but so rude she just stole your trifle.

You’ll have to let us know if you get one 😊

If you've got the time, and it wouldn't need long, I would make my own. It'll be tons better and you'll be one up on the bitch.

What a CF!!! May the fleas of a thousand camels infest her knickers, and may her arms be forever too short to scratch.

Merry Christmas, OP!

Nasty horrible person, I would have followed her to her car and emptied her bags out until I retrieved it and enjoyed sherry trifle on her.

Deck the halls with boughs of holly, fa la la la laaa la la la la
Get your bitch claws out my trolley, fa la la la laaa la la la la

Well ok, I probably wouldn’t really but I’d have driven home wishing I had.

😆

You should have shouted "disinfect that package carefully, I've got a rare skin disease that is highly contagious by touching dairy product packaging" (not quite believable but just enough to ruin her enjoyment of the trifle hopefully)

Woman was a first class arsehole

That was nasty of her but if you need a trifle coop normally has them.

@GoldAndSilverBells if all else fails, maybe you could get a Birds Eye trifle kit amd splash some sherry into the jelly?!

Enjoy my norovirus - give it 72 hours & you should perk up 👍

Hex with sudden & explosive diarrhea whilst in a traffic jam.

What a selfish CF.

Peace & goodwill to everyone else 😁🎅

Doubt she will, though. Sounds like she has the morals of an alley cat 🙄

I hope she's ruined the trifle by running with it.

If you can find the time, OP, it's relatively simple to make one, and home-made is always better so you could have a nicer one than hers.

Santa saw her! 🎅 She's now on the naughty list and she's going to receive norovirus and salmonella on Christmas Day.

And this is why you order an online food shop! It comes to you and you don’t have to deal with all the madness. I got one a small one from Ocado, another huge one from Tesco and another one from Waitrose. All set and avoided any of the unpleasantness.

A raspberry trifle sounds much better than sherry 👍

That is outrageous. She’s lucky it was you. Another person might have decked her.
