If you disembowel then you won't need loo paper

compo · 02/03/2010 17:41

Haven't you got a corner shop?!

julybutterfly · 02/03/2010 17:45

Kitchen roll is our emergency toilet roll

displayuntilbestbefore · 02/03/2010 17:46

me too - and I always have boxes of tissues in the house for snotty noses and similar predicaments

MiffyWhinge · 02/03/2010 17:52

is just that have to drive past a Tesco about an hour ago in a minute

is good point about not needing any if I go ahead with disembowelment plan

a 2 minute trip into a "T" word isn't going to kill you.

MiffyWhinge · 02/03/2010 17:56

Wet wipes + internet shopping

DecorHate · 02/03/2010 18:05

I wouldn't go into a big Tesco just for one thing. Too much hassle parking and queuing. A Tesco Local would be fine. I love my corner shop!

mazzystartled · 02/03/2010 18:23

cut up squares of newspaper

tesco is the devil's work

Joolyjoolyjoo · 02/03/2010 18:29

No- don't go in!! Internet shopping is the only way to brave it. For emergencies use a smaller shop- it will take you 45 minutes of trolley rage to even get to the loo-roll anyway, and then you have to run the Gauntlet of Temptation- maybe you do actually need that fabric conditioner. And 6 tins of beans. And oh look- there's that book you were going to read!! Resist! (well, you'll have to anyway, because one of your children will be suddenly bursting for the loo, which will involve a 20 minute quest for the nearest toilets)

Stay home. Use wipes/ tissues/ OK magazine. Bear in mind that disembowelling can be very messy, and you will have nothing with which to clean it up....

Bumbleconfusus · 02/03/2010 18:31

nevermind giving yourself paper cuts from newspaper, just use water.

Pumphreydidit · 02/03/2010 18:46

Step away from prunes and pineapples. Become constipated. That will teach Tesco for being so graspy.

heQet · 02/03/2010 20:33

What's wrong with tesco?

KatnKankles · 03/03/2010 00:12

I was going to ask that heQet... ours is rather nice...

The ASDA a few miles away is a different matter however..

TwoIfBySea · 03/03/2010 00:18

YANBU at all...but then again your name might suggest that more than toilet roll is needed.

I have a personal grudge against Tesco. Bring back Willie Lows!

juneybean · 03/03/2010 00:23

How weird

ILIVEONBENEFITS · 03/03/2010 01:34

Yes, what IS wrong with Tesco? I much prefer it to ASDA which is full of toothless, cider swilling,coupon using fat idiots from the sink estate up the road who think prams are just for transporting dirt and grubby blankets.

And lets not get into the LIDL/ALDI/FARMFOODS triumvirate of evil. No it's Tesco all the way for me..safe..clean..affordable and most importantly it's not on a bus route so its a totally mong free shopping experience.

ILIVEONBENEFITS · 03/03/2010 01:36

SORRY THAT SHOULD SAY MONGO!!

PureAsTheColdDrivenSnow · 03/03/2010 01:43

wtf is wrong with Tesco? Boycotting Sainsbury's on the basis that it's saving me £25 a week to go to Tescosity

PureAsTheColdDrivenSnow · 03/03/2010 01:44

oh god... you used the M word. Prepared to be shunned.

heQet · 03/03/2010 07:29

mongo? as in 'mongoloid'?
Would that be downs syndrome?
Or the racial group common in peoples indigenous to central and eastern Asia?
or the largest ethnic group in the Democratic Republic of the Congo?

ObsidianBlackbirdMcNight · 03/03/2010 07:48

ILIVEONBENEFITS is a rather unimaginative troll. Don't bother reacting to it.

MiffyWhinge · 03/03/2010 07:59

sorry, for Tesco see also: the world out there

not that I like any big supermarket, was just the thought of getting up and going out and being in contact with people

"mongo? as in 'mongoloid'?

or maybe even mongo as in the knuckle dragging mouth breather as depicted in blazing saddles? but please do keep looking for a reason to take the moral high ground and judge
