Do you put your stuff on the conveyor at the supermarket checkout in a specific order because you worry what the person in front will think of you based on your purchases?
![]() The other day I was in Asda and I was restocking the booze cupboard... I like to keep plenty on hand as opposed to have to go to the shop every other day, so: -10x cans 1664 -6x bottles Miller -12x cans Guinness -bottle of Vladivar -bottle of Jose Cuervo The woman in front said something about how it should be 'a good party then?' or something. I just mumbled yes, I didn't want to say anything like 'it's all for me and the missus' or indeed 'nah, I decided I needed a hobby so I'm becoming an alcoholic' or something. Now, last time I asked people (not here) this question they all said I was nuts and paranoid and they didn't care. SO ORG, the question is to you now: Do you care and put your items down accordingly? EDIT: And no discussion of 'oh I put the stuff in order because I am OCD about how I pack all my stuff' please. Thanks Last edited by metalangel; 01-05-10 at 07:40 AM. |

I've never given it much thought.
If you are uncomfortable with what you purchase, is there a deep rooted feeling you are doing something wrong? Lie back on the couch and tell me of your childhood. ![]()

I never understood the embarassment about buying condoms.
"Yes, condoms. I'm going to get laid. Are you?" |

You cant just put the healthy stuff at the front otherwise the person behind will see that your an alcoholic, you need to develop a fruit to alcohol balance...
i like to balance an apple on top of every 4 pack ![]() |
