Am i forever the bleedin mug or what????
Have been forced to go to family for crimbo dinner - so offered to help out with purcheses, and as only got paid today - have the day off work to hit the shops.
WELL
Yesterday was bad enough going out to try and buy a baked spud for my lunch - all these last minute shoppers buying trollies and trollies loads of stuff.
How big ARE their families for god sake that they need 16 pints of milk and 38 loaves of bread???
Leave SOME for me to buy - i only want one of each!!!! Grrrrr
Suppose i better get going now before they run out of stuff.
See ya!!! |

DONT DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just sent hubby into town to pick up the turkey from the butchers he says the 12 horsemen are riding down Leven High Street
I wished I could have ordered online but since last week all the delivery slots have been taken for my local supermarkets - yes all of them
If you do have to go out shopping today do what I do:
Stand right next to the shelve/fridge/freezer that you want things from
Hold your mobile to your ear and say loudly did you know this shop is doing HUGE boxes(or tins) of chocolates for a quid the stack is near the door . . . .
Stand well back as the stampede races of to find the chocolates and you get your shoping done in peace!!!

"We just go about 3 in the morning when it's all nice and quiet and the parking places next to the doors are empty "
I have considered that - but then half my mates on facebook have all got the same idea and SHARING that idea - so i think i better get in their first and go soon.
See, i was gonna go half an hour ago and STILL putting it off!!!
Also going local veg shop for veg - but still need to get presents too - grrrr.
And nibbles and stuff so need to go supermarket. |

Debs hun honestly use it I swear you will be able to get your shopping done in peace as long as you can run fast!!! Cos when they notice you will get shouted at - well it happened to me for years.
I would pick up the last toy (that I KNEW my kid wanted) turned round to show hubby and it was grabbed out my hand!!! I mean ffs the shops are only gonna be closed for 1 extra day.
So I learned to say stupid things and get rid of people and got my shopping done in relative peace

Shop on line all year round, cant remember last time I pushed a trolley dont do it! Went on line Sunday for delivery today all slots gone until 28th!!! Had to call a cab to take me to shop spent over 200 quid on God knows what. Ok, maybe the Bailey's, Southern Comfort, Smirnoff, Remy's, rioja, shiraz, pinot grigio and mixers played a big part but still... |

Ian Mellis? If the queue in St Andrews is anything like the one in Glasgow you'd better wrap up warm. |

OMG!!!!!
That was just the WORSE shop ever!!!
Went to Asda, and had to drive round the whole car park twice to even find a space to park - and then i had to bully my way in.
THEN - fuck me - the whole world and his wife and kids were there.
Sorry - but if both partners are off work - surely it only takes ONE of you to do the bleeding shopping - not BOTH of you and your 8 kids - ALL dawdling in the isles.
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
And i was taking the piss a bit earlier about the 16 loaves of bread thin g- but OMG - its really REALLY true. People even buying 300 bog rolls - says alot for thier cooking dunnit!!!
Took me an hour and half just to get some cheese board, nibbles, dips, and potatoes, wine and baileys AND cost me £60 at that!!!!
NEVER AGAIN!!!
Would buy the wine and stuff early but then i just know i would drink it - so get all the veggies and stuff early next time and then down to the offy!!!
MERRY BLEEDING XMAS EVERYONE!!!! |
