Supermarket Gripes

I'm currently in Uganda without massive supermarkets. I'm mainly relying on an Indian-run shop. I say what I want and if they don't have it the owner sends an African employee off along the street to find it. Marmite, no problem. Two crates of beer, just wait five minutes (£18 for forty 500ml bottles).

For fresh bread and good quality meat we've tapped into the local tourist resort, getting it at cost. Don't miss the UK supermarkets in the slightest - hell on earth.

The poor African lad needs a new pair of trainers now though.
 
People who don't put down the divider on the belt at the end of their shopping.

I usually just put my shopping down so they are charged for it.

Wankers.
 
Should do away with these f***ing vouchers anarl. My Mrs says shes fed up with people fannying on at checkouts with vouchers and causing delays..

This is because it annoys me whilst Im waiting outside for her to finish her shopping!
 
Tried it a few times. It's amazing how much stuff they miss off or have to swap for something else
Fair point, doesn’t surprise me really. A lot of people who work for home shopping just cant be arsed and chuck the first thing they see in the bag
