Would you rather they be something like this?

 

"Look b**** I don't give a flying f*** what you're looking for in here. Either buy somthing or f*** off"

 

or maybe...

 

[sales Person] "Hello there, do you need any help with anything?"

[Poppins]: "pfffft (obviously annoyed at being nice) no"

[sales Person] "No need to get stroppy, I was only checking that you didn't need any assistance. Next time I'll not f****** bother...s**g"

 

I'm guessing not

Missb your not on your own ...im another woman who HATES shopping... i only go if i have to .

 

I have long legs so i walk at quite a fast pace so i gets on my nerves when people stop for no reason infront of you or people that walk really slow and dawdle along,

And of cause shopp assistants with no manners does mi ed' in too!!

Been pounced on as soon as you enter the shop. "Can I help you" "Are you alright".

People....both staff and other customers. I think in future ill abstain from washing for a couple of weeks before i go shopping - that should keep them all back a few paces.

 

Oh...and 99.9% of whats on sale. Utter crap...almost without exception (which i buy of course...im so weak!).

I was visiting the large Tesco at abbeydale in the summer, and there were some lairy looking school girls at the entrance. As I drove past in my car, which has no dents in it. One of them let go of a trolley and it hurtled toward my car. Fortunately by some miracle, the trolley wheel must have bounced off my tyre as there was no damage. While this was happening the girls had scarpered, and being more concerned about my car I stopped immediately and god out for a butchers.

 

A minute later a tesco lady came out and asked what had happened. Being a local woman who looks like she takes no nonsense from anybody. I was reasured that they would put a stop to any similar behaviour.

 

Moral of this story?

stay well away from shopping trolleys in supermarket car parks.

Lol!

 

Oh so many things annoy me about shopping:

 

Idiots stopping dead just in front of me - I can only pray they don't drive;

Mothers (or worse, fathers, sorry!) with buggies driving straight at me, 2 or 3 in a line, so there's nowhere to go;

Being headbutted by toddlers;

Shop assistants asking me every 10 seconds "can I help you?" - I've already said I'll ask for help if I need it, thank you;

People reaching across me for stuff without saying excuse me;

etc etc

 

I do enjoy shopping really - maybe I'm just grumpy today! Although I do dream about shopping trips where there are no other customers in the shops, and I can browse to my heart's content without staff being 'helpful'.

 

Actually, what I really enjoy about shopping is getting home with my parcels!

PS I have thought about online shopping, but it really doesn't seem to interest me. I'm beginning to think the discomfort of shopping is part of the penance for spending the money .....

I hate it when staff watch every move you make..thinking your on the rob...

Little do they know i was a Store Detective for years and can spot a lifter a mile away...usually behind them while they are to busy watching me! he he

Were you the same guy that I called scrooge in another thread?

 

If you don't like leaving the house for shopping, internet shopping is the answer .
