Surprise!! (off piste)๐Ÿ˜‚

Yesterday my husband went down to collect our delivery from A. He came back with the biggest parcel we have ever received. Neither of us could think what it could be. As he opened it there was a big guffaw - 32 packets of 4 kitchen rolls!?!

After the shock I looked up my order and realised that I had forgotten to bop how many rolls I needed! They obviously thought "Oh poor lady we'll give her the biggest pack we have" (!??!). What a laugh!

Youโ€™ll have the cleanest home for miles around...if you have the energy!..๐Ÿ˜ณ

Thatโ€™s one of the pitfalls of online shopping...you wonโ€™t be the first, nor the last! Just be thankful they donโ€™t have a โ€˜best before dateโ€™

Constance, how about 32kgs of lamb chops instead of 3kgs.

My friends and neighbours loved it - free chops and I have never lived it down.

Wow! My husband would be delighted (his favourite meat).

You don't need any kitchen rolls do you?๐Ÿคช

Do you do free postage. And I won't answer next time - we will get told off.

I ordered 2 trays of sausages from our butcher expecting 2 trays of six = 12 sausages...but their โ€˜normalโ€™ trays hold 30 sausages! I nearly wrote a cookbook called โ€˜a thousand ways to serve a sausageโ€™! It was during the first pandemic & they were so kind to deliver free of charge! S x
