FabSwingers.com forum: supermarket rage

following on from the thread about manners, does anyone else get supermarket rage? i'm a sod for it.

i was in sainsburys a few years ago when some woman slammed her trolley into my back and walked off. i shouted out to her but she never responded. so i chased her down the aisles! good job i don't drive.

the worse occasion was quite recently when i called into an express supermarket for just a few items. in the basket was a tub of blueberries which the assistant swiped the wrong way and they spilled all over the floor. she then proceeded to pick them up and put them back in the tub! i politely asked for another box as i didn't think what she did was hygienic, i was greeted with 'you want another one, you go and get another one'. aargh.

+500!! Me too. In fact, I've done something similar. A loaded trolley the contents of which I knew which items were on offer, particularly my razor blades (Mach 3 £10 a pop), I'd put two packs in as it was supposed to be BOGOF, she scanned them through, I asked if the saving had gone through, she said she wouldn't know until the end. I waited until she'd rung them all through and it came to £60 when it should have been nearer £50. I asked about the BOGOF and she said with an arrogant sneer that if it wasn't on the receipt then it wasn't on offer, then rolled her eyes and asked me to pay.

I walked off, leaving £60 worth of shopping all over her till. I can still hear her yelling after me, "Er..Excuse me! Who's going to put all this stuff back?!"

A smug smile of satisfaction beamed across my face as I exited the store.

Another time I was in the chip shop and the young lad serving served the sexy young lass in front of me. He gave her a huge portion (steady you lot!), then served me the half of what he'd just given her. I asked him why my portion wasn't the same as the girl before me and he said, "You don't look as good as her." I asked for salt and vinegar on them, lots of it, waited till he'd wrapped them up, and then told him I didn't want them anymore as they didn't look as good as the ones the girl had been served with.

I can queue and even spell it, but if the place is understaffed or the checkout person is too laid back I can get supermarket rage and sometimes make trouble by commenting to those in front of or behind me to start off the dissent.

More often I will dumpt my goods and leave.

I want to mutilate people who touch the fresh fruit, squeeze it, press it, rub it and then throw it back..

it's a fucking satsuma you are buying, not a detached 4 bedroom house.

I don't touch but I do sniff. Always buy from the greengrocer or market though.

For your interest, I purchase the same blades, only I pay about 2 or 3 pounds per pack. It pays off to shop around on the interweb for those kinds of stuff.

Also; I would have probably done the same. Generally the staff at my local Tesco are very good, but in some other supermarkets back home you got to watch the staff and go through your receipt with forensic detail to make sure you're not had.

North of The Wall - youll need your vest

I regularly spend ages looking around for a specific thing....sometimes days...

Then when I find exactly what it is I want I go to the cashier and if theres a massive queue I just walk away...

Patience has never been one of my virtues
