My husband has just been into town and I asked him to bring back a pound of stewing beef. I said it would be about £2.50.

He came back with 'just over' a pound of casserole steak which cost £4.98! Honestly. Do you really have to do everything yourself?

They do it on purpose. I once asked mine to paint around a window, he painted right over the glass ( covered the lot ) You wont ask me again will you he said.

You could be right there treetops. Next time, I will give him the right money like my mum used to do when she sent me to the shops. She used to give me a penny extra to get myself a chew.
ahem, it works the other way too. I can't paint or wallpaper. ( I can but Mr Alba doesn't need to know that)

He was wonderful at shopping when I was heavily pregnant, 18 years later he moans about the price of food :-)
Do they change when they become official only Redman is a darling gets what I want from Sainsburys, does stuff in the house... all for food and the odd flash of a suspender
if he is unfamiliar with the different types of beef then its an easy mistake to make especially when confronted with a whole aisle of different types. I would have written down the name of it to make life a bit easier.

I can see how he'd get stewing beef and casserole steak mixed up... after all the words are very similar eh.
I thought buying energy saving bulbs would be easy until I was met with an aisle full of them all slightly different to each other
the meat is similar, sort of red and meaty
and the moo's the same

How kind you are, cazz. He didn't go to the supermarket. He went to a butcher's shop. He just let the butcher talk him into buying the most expensive product. Next time I'll send him with a note in the purse with the correct money. (And a penny for a chew)
Loving your new avatar fluff.............very summery.
well that is less forgivable I suppose
lol craft, are they bodycon shorts fluff?
I'd order by phone and just send him with the money to collect it
Gave OH shopping list once.......just once. It included bay leaves. When I came home from work there was a bl66dy great bay tree on the patio.
they're my new "shapers"
Hopefully you can use the casserole steak, or will you be sending your husband out later for something from the chinese takeaway?

Enjoy your Chicken Jalfrezi ;-p
I asked my ex for carrots, bread, stock cubes and cereal
He brought back chocolate hobnobs, Jamaica gingercakes (buy two get one free)
two very large bars of chocolate two sorts of ice cream and fudge sauce....

Everyone thinks he left me.... he's under the shed...
I'm away to Rowan's to lay a patio for the price of a few muffins:-)

If no patio space available, I'll huckle the shed up north
Don't find that irritating he did his best - would you have been less irritated if he had come back with nothing because it was not the price you said it should be?
