Have you ever had a funny experience whilst shopping folks ?

[LochNessMonster]

My true story happened about a year ago whilst in Glasgow.

Went into my local branch of sandwich makes Subway.

There was two young woman students about 18- 19 yo in front of me, and the member of staff asked one of them if she wanted a 6 inch or 12 inch piece of bread? She said "6 inchs please, as that's all I can take?" trying not to laugh.

However she brust out laughing and had tears in eyes when I was asked the same question. I said "12 inchies please as I was not bending mine in half for anyone?"

Had the shop in a uproar.

Tut Tut ! Naughty minds

I have posted this before but,because it was the fault of the rather raunchy thread I had been reading on AB and the subject was still very much on my mind, I`ll repeat.

In my local deli I reached for a bottle of Beetroot Juice. The owner told me to be careful as he had dropped a bottle a while ago and it made a dreadful mess.

The words in my head were, "I remember. You had sticky bottles for ages after."

Out of my mouth came. "I remember. You had sticky balls for ages after."

yes. my son running after me in asda at the age of two with an armful of condoms.....screaming at the top of his voice 'mummy, mummy...you need your protection'. thing is, we have never used condoms (my brother was to blame for that) but the shop was packed and i died of embarrassment.

onto a similar incident, i was in the dr's surgery and had borrowed a copy of marie clair i was in the middle of reading when i was called in. i did take it back the next week (with other mags i had collected) but when it was my turn to go in again, my son picked up the magazine i had put down and came running after me asking if i was 'going to nick this one as well'. little bugger.

Got home from Lidl and told the missus "Lamb chops for dinner"

"Minted" she asked

No, if I was I would've bought them from Marks and Spencers

i used to share a flat above a bank, the guy got it as he was employed by them. Anyway part of the deal was that if the cash machine went down he had to go fix it, re stock it whatever. One day i'm waiting outside for him to fix it and he shouts throught he machine to me that he can;t fix it and i might as well as go on to tescos and while i'm there can i get him some washing poweder. So i reply back saying yes no probs, what does he want ariel, persil etc, anything else blah blah blah. When we're done i turn round and edging away from me with a look of terror in their eyes is a queue of peopel waiting to use the cash machine..

i then proceeded to give them all directions to the next nearest machines, gesticulating away, never twigged until i got in the car to find my then boyfriend in hysterics

Well shopping with a two year old makes for fun times!
Nothing specific she just cracks me up!!

Oh im trying to think, ok from last thursdays late night shopping trip. Long aisle in the shop is empty no cages or anything blocking it and no staff around. Mr f decides to do a flying trolley slide down the aisle -only to nearly send he manager flying!!!

Was in B&Q with my great grandson they were giving out suflowers for kids to grow. They had to give name and age the man said to gt grandson " let me guess how old you are" quick as a flash he replied " I am 5 but when I am on the train I am only 4 as you have to pay when you are 5" wish the floor could have swallowed me. Kids!!!!!

That is sooo true, Frutri. Back in 1963 my mother said to me, "Happy Birthday, Michael, you're a big lad now, 14 today, except on the buses where you're only 13 so I only have to pay half fare for you."

Ha Ha Ha Mike bet it is done loads with kids.

I'm laying in my bed browsing AB in the dark as the old fella is sleeping.
I do this often being a bad sleeper. I've just woken him up laughing at these old posts.

Loved them all but the 12" bread stick beats them all.
