The residual BI shopping problem

So more 8 years into the BI world I have learnt to tolerate the worst of the bright lights, crowds, peculiarities of where different chains like to place certain items.

I can cope with the lists and items I need or aren't on the list but just remembered I need.

However, one thing still persists - the ability to pick up the correct item. I know what I want, can see what I want, go to pick it but later on find I have something different!

Today I wanted a multi pack of ready salted crisps, big red bag. What, did I have big blue bag - cheese and onion. Last week I bought the fizzy Vimto instead of Vimto cordial. Next to each other on the shelf but completely different packaging and bottle shape. At the time, I don't notice that I am picking up something different, not even at the till.

Not the biggest problem but drives me nuts - and the other family members if they wanted Vimto squash!
