Yesterday's shopping trip to the big Tesco.

Tweet

So, because I went shopping down town on Monday, my Mum said I needn't go shopping to the little Tesco on Tuesday. She said she might go, but she didn't end up doing so as usual. So I got everything I would have got on the Tuesday from the big Tesco yesterday, which wasn't much. When I got to the shop I went and got a trolley, posted some letters, got rid of the soft recycle and went up on the lift. When I got into the main shop, I got the TV magazines that I would have got on Tuesday, then I got a bounty bar for Syd that my Mum had forgotten to put on her shopping list. I got some sea weed thins for me, and just one bottle of water. Then I got some pads for my Mum and some panty liners for me, then I went to the fruit and veg section where I got the usual stuff. Plus, I managed to get some edamame beans! Mum wanted 3 bottles of milk because I didn't go to the little Tesco on Tuesday. Then I got my yoghurts and some puddings for my Mum and Syd for Sunday. I got some mini pork pies for my Mum, and some cooked chicken drumsticks. My Mum hadn't put any ready meals on her list, but I got myself 4 packets of meat free bites, some tofu, some vegan sausages and some vegan stuff that is supposed to taste like pork that I'm going to try. Then I went to the ingredients isle and got some pots of ground coriander and cinnamon for me, and some mini pearl pickled onions for my Mum. Then I went to the pasta, rice and ingredients isle and got some soba noodles, some udon noodles and some reduced salt soy sauce. After that it was off to the canned isle where I got 2 pot noodles for Syd, a regular curry one and a chicken chow mein one. Then I went to the bread isle and got a 50/50 loaf and 6 sliced white rolls. Next I went to the cake isle where I got some of the long doughnuts (not the circular ones) full of jam and cream, and a Victoria Sponge cake. Then I went straight to the teas and coffees isle and I got some malted milk biscuits for my Mum and some custard cream biscuits for Syd. Then I got myself a vegan galaxy hot chocolate. I got some cheerios and muesli for Syd, then it was off to the frozen section. I got some Quorn chunks for me, then I managed to find some vegan magnum ice lollies! They were in a new design of packaging. Then I got some frozen red onion and some frozen garlic. Round the other side my Mum wanted some jacket potatoes. I always dread her telling me she wants jacket potatoes because they're always right at the back on a high up shelf and I can't reach them. Sure enough.... I got my walking stick out and pulled one down, pulled it forward and managed to get hold of it all on my own without the assistance of any passing people! Then I got my Mum some Tesco crinkle cut chips and 2 battered fish. I Then I was done. But it was still only 3:30pm! I'd been trying to go slowly but obviously it hadn't worked! To try and use up some time I went back and got another packet of edamame beans, then I came back down the laundry isle and got some persil non-bio because I knew we were down to one bottle of that. I took my time about it! Then I went to pay. It cost just over £128. Then I went and sat on a bench and read some of one of the TV magazines. At approx 4:25pm I went down on the lift. I sat down on a bench in the undercover car park, but almost as soon as I'd sat down Syd arrived! So we put all the bags in the boot of the car and went home. When I got home I gave Mum her change, shopping list and club card. Then I unpacked the groceries and put them away. Then I had my dinner and watched some telly, and then I got ready for Tuneless Choir. What have you lot been getting up to? I hope you are all well. Have a nice day.
