Went to Asda today , himself had a dentist appointment and it was the nearest supermarket , it was crowded but bearable , packed with pensioner couples arguing like hell ..lol.. one old bloke was about to die for saying he didnt like the colour of the wrapping paper the missus was buying , guess he should have waited in the car like he does all the rest of the year , There was dozens of bewildered blokes wandering round with shopping lists obviously told to pick stuff up on the way home then you tripped over them shouting down their phones at their other half because they couldnt find stuff or it wasnt in stock and they darent make any descision for themselves . I did laugh one builder with a white van full of his stuff literally tipped his whole trolley in on top of everything then just launched his empty trolley across the carpark . I do think the shops are making a bit of a heroic effort this year this is the first time ive seen the shelves packed in there all year and they even had all the checkouts manned , mind you for the prices they are charging they need to be . Ended up having to pop into Lidl for the last 2 items on my xmas shopping list , streaky bacon and cranberry sauce . who knew they would be hard to find ?
Anyway please remember its now pensioners driving on busy roads time of year , so please take granny shopping before she leaves a trail of devastation in her wake . Also the foodbank reminder, no chocolate oranges or selection boxes they are over run with them this time of year , dried milk is always a good one and i did see a lady loading a donation bin up with small boxed xmas cakes but you can eat those anytime .
