Grocery Store Fails: When Shopping Goes Wrong
My funniest mishaps at the grocery store
I went to the grocery store the other day, and let me tell you, it was quite an adventure.
The place was packed with people, and there were aisles and aisles of stuff to look at, as usual. But I just find it like a maze.
But, instead of treasure, I was searching for food. Something tasty and cost-effective, maybe with some good offers and freebies.
I forgot to mention earlier that my primary goal there was to buy the things mentioned by my mom on the list.
So, I wandered around for a while, trying to find everything on my list. And yes, like every time, this time also I got lost a few times, and I even bumped into a lady who was trying to get a cart full of groceries past me.
The face she made looked as if I had asked for both of her kidneys.
She looked so much like Mrs. Julia Wicket from the Mr. Bean cartoon.
Remember the elderly and grouchy big, fat landlady who always used to stay irritated with wriggled eyebrows?!
Well, my lady stranger here didn’t have white hair like her, but other than that, I bet she would have been the best person who would be fit for the role of Mrs.Wicket ( from Mr Bean).
Also, I am pretty sure that she must be having a cunning cat at her home, just like the one they showed in the cartoon.
My goodness! what an evil cat it was! I love all the cats in the world, except that one.
Coming back to reality, the lady in front of me had just opened her mouth, and I am pretty sure was about to shower a bucket full of words over me.
But the speed at which I told her sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry... all at one go, it was no less than the speed of lightning.
