I rarely do a big shop at the supermarket, so it's generally topping up on stuff I'm running low on, so the conveyor may have 2 or three pizzas, lots of fruit, big box of condoms (I hate running out so buy bulk), coffee, a toothbrush, some socks, some deodorant and obscure stuff like olives and capers. I don't drink booze, so they must think I'm having a right weird party at my gaff

Does no one else use the self service things then?

A girl is standing in a supermarket checkout queue and puts the following items onto the conveyor belt:

1 Toothbrush
1 Tube of toothpaste
1 loaf of bread
1 pint of milk
1 apple
1 baking potato
1 muesli bar
1 frozen pizza
1 single frozen dinner

The bloke behind her in the queue taps her on the shoulder. As she turns he smiles at her and says:

"Single, eh?"

The girl smiles sheepishly and replies

"How did you guess?"

He looks into her eyes and says

"Because you're a minger"

Women never have their purse/card ready and always look surprised when they have to pay

Men always have their card ready but always balls up the payment cos they put the card in the machine before the clerk has finished

Tonights shop...

4 bottle of poof juice, bottle of vodka, 8 pack of tennants, 2 bottles of jauques cider, bottle of sours and 2 packs of fags...

Was a very weird shop... Most of it was for the sister thankfully!

I'd have to ride to the other side of town to use Tesco that has them, our Sainsos about a mile away just has normal checkouts

Interesting that you guys buy large boxes of condoms rather than boxes of large condoms...

I always put the heaviest items on the conveyor first so they go back in the trolley first and then the lighter stuff goes last, on top to stop it getting squashed

I always make sure that my box of extra large condoms is on top.

Other than that - who cares.
