So why is it when you pop to t***os to grab some rolls , you end up spending stupid amounts ?

To get something that should cost 80p ends up £22.15 .

Is it me or does everyone else have this problem ?

Yes , waffles and spray cream isn’t rolls , deodorant isn’t rolls , salad cream and ham isn’t rolls , custard creams ( thanks to a previous thread on here ) isn’t rolls etc....

I find you can never just get what you want .

So am I alone on the shopping trips ?

They do this thing where they know what you don t want to buy . They pile it all up at the entrance for you to see . You feel yourself being sucked into picking a pack up , or 2 ( strawberry coco pops ) .

I think supermarkets are like Vegas casino’s. They pump them full of oxygen and before you know it you’ve lost 3 days, your bank account is empty and a man called Massimo owns the deed to your house.

If that's what you're like OP can I suggest you never ever go to IKEA!! You'll pop there for some meatballs in the cafe and before you know it you'll have re-furnished the house!!

If you are like this in Tescos and going "off piste" with your shopping list, don't go to Lidls or Aldi's, as the middle aisle is sure to draw you in like a moth to a flame!

A trip to any supermarket at the moment is the highlight of the week! We should all be allowed to go a little mad when popping in for a pint of milk and coming out with baskets full of crap we don't need

You'd be mad not to! Every little helps

The compact sewing machine and angle grinder with 24 assorted blades seemed like essential purchases at the time. And when it's gone it's gone!
