Tesco Trauma
Doing my weekly shop in Tesco like ya do wandering round world of my own!
Left me trolley at the end of the aisle to grab some kitchen roll in the trolly it goes,shopping complete, then me thinks maybe i could do with some new baking trays!!
Off i go had bought some pizza bases so thought should check size of trays up against them digs into me trolley its disappeared :scared:
Starts looking round for someone whos knicked me trolley starting to get a bit peeved thinking im gonna have to do all me shopping again
Young worker standing about "someones knicked me trolley " Im checking the aisles like a nutter
Where did you last av it so back to the kitchen roll aisle i go leaving the other trolley behind and there it is my nice full trolley
Went back to tell the young lad ive found me trolley so he takes the other trolley full of shopping back to kitchen roll aisle.
hastily leg it to checkout ive still got visions of some poor woman trapsing round looking for her shopping thinking shes going nuts
Keeping hold of my trolley in future

You weren't wearing slippers too I hope.
I bet that some poor old dear has just checked into an OAP home thinking that she has lost the plot.

Re: Tesco Trauma
I thought this was going to be another one of those threads with someone in Oz lamenting not having a Tesco supermarket to get supposedly everything under the one roof.
Just on a serious note beware of a supermarket scam used in both UK and Oz. Picture trolley with handbag in, pair of felons working as a pair looking for such; could you please pass me down that item on the top shelf over there? said nicely; certainly there it is; ah, where's my handbag? Felon #2 has made of with it. Elderly people and women with children are particular prey, the felons figuring they can run faster. Relatives in Oz and friends in UK both victims! Same scam is used at ATM's - just before you pull your money out, tap on shoulder, excuse me you've dropped a note, look down, money gone. Then there's skimming ATM's with a false front, identity theft going through your mail etc. Cheery soul aren't I!
