1 You can't get parked
2 They change the position of everything - even assistants can't tell you where it's at
3 The stores stink of food baking - especially Morrison's
4 Snotty checkout assistants at M&S + Sainsbury
5 Checkout queues are about a mile long and everybody in front is stocking up for the forthcoming natural disaster
6 Pensioners try to count out 87p in pennies
7 Women never start looking for their money/card until after they have been served - and sometimes finish packing before making any attempt
8 The checkout assistant bombards you with a dozon questions - nectar points, cashback, help to pack 3 items !!, shite
9 Some checkouts beep at about 110 decibels and the stores are lit like The London Palladium
10 Someone tries to sell you double glazing on the way out
11 When you get back to the car, some bozo has scratched your door or parked 3 inches away
12 You can't get into the petrol station because every pump is full - and you can give up on the thought of a McDonalds breakfast unless you want to join a queue a mile deep

Stupid fuckin husbands who follow their wives round like tame dogs and stand at the end of the checkout and do fuck all to help pack.

Going to the supermarket on Saturday morning is just asking for bollox. I find late in the evening weekdays or around 7-8pm Saturday evening are the most agreeable shopping times.

I run a supermarket - we move everything all the time partly just to make you spend longer in the store. I wish we didn't have to though, its very tedious

One Stop and Spar are cunts. You try getting some milk, sugar and cat food at 10.00 at night when the big stores are shut, take a tenner, you 'might' get enough change to buy a newspaper

Unusual snack for that time of night Ace ;-)

Sounds like the paper would best be the first item on the list given the likely results

cheers

Husbands doing the shopping without a list, having to speak on their mobile phones continually to get the wife's OK on what they're buying.
People who answer their phones when they're at the checkout. Are they so feckin important that they can't be out of reach for 30 mins.
