All seen in Woolies yesterday, Gaytime Ice Lollies, Nob Salami and Coon Cheese, never in England!!
Also, the adverts over here are very risque, I saw a Womens Advert for Genetalia Soap with a woman on a beach with a beaver beside her and the strapline was "take care of your beaver"

What I have actually wondered is whether these people actually wash? Do they get up, shower, and think right, I'll put back on my dirty PJs that I have just slept in which seems to defeat the object of having a shower, or do they think sod it, why bother?

Yeah I know what you mean! I saw a 4 year old kid, his mother, and grandmother in Tesco's at 3 in the afternoon in their PJ's. The mother and grandmother had matching ones, I kid you not. But to be fair each was wearing different footwear. One had Rockports on, the other was modelling fake Uggs.

I'm really not bothered by pyjamas or bogan-type people, virtually none in our area anyway.
It's a small price to pay to be completely rid of people wearing Kappa or Umbro tracksuits, replica football shirts or any other nylon based attire. Or on a hot day no-shirt at all in the supermarket.

Well living in a new suburb with mainly youngish 2 income/2 kid families and newer immigrants (mainly Asians and Indians) the people are pretty bland.

Re: wierd things you see when shopping
I am constantly amazed by the array of really bad tattoos, often on women. A girl in the poster shop at Harbour Town last week had a really clumsy black tribal thing tattooed right across her chest. Now thats gonna look lovely on the wedding photos eh?
Also, the many kiwis who feel the need to have a wobbly outline of New Zealand tattooed onto their bodies, just in case they forget what it looks like.
And, while I am on a roll, whats with those horrific earrings that stretch massive holes into your ears? People will be wearing plates in their bottom lips next.
