Supermarket Shopping.

7 Replies

I'm a supermarket shopper,

Perfect in my ways.

I have a list to work from,

Cos organising pays.

I check the 'best before' dates

Making sure I've got the best.

Probably left my finger prints,

When handling all the rest.

There's always queues behind me,

Whilst I'm rummaging about,

Wanting to get past me,

And fuming I've no doubt.

I always choose big trolleys

Though I never have a lot.

They're best for pushing past folk,

It's all part of my plot.

When I reach the checkout

I take up lots of space.

If I see others heading there,

I make sure I win the race.

I have a stack of vouchers

Which take a while to scan

Some I've had for ages.

A bit sticky from the jam.

I have a load of bags with me

For new ones I won't pay.

Then I reach into my pocket.

And note to my dismay.

I forgot to bring my wallet,

And I haven't enough to pay.

Never mind, they can put the stuff back.

And I'll come another day.

Brilliant Don. 👏 I also grab a big trolley, I don't need it but I can dump my tank in it and it keeps people out of my space. 😀👍

That makes a lot of sense Cas, you do well pushing a big trolley around. Actually, to be honest, my rhyme doesn't really reflect the way I behave in supermarkets. I get stuck for something to write about and it doesn't seem right to be reading all the postings and not contributing anything myself, however trivial.
