(Typical shopping basket of 52 basic items:August 2022 – Day Admin)
The big supermarkets should be ashamed of themselves. Not only are they happy to charge you £1.75 for a tin of Heinz “Beans N Sausages” and upwards of £5 for some fucking tomato ketchup but now they leave half the fucking lights off so you have to wander around with a head torch…….get to fuck.
Ahh you say, this is all about saving power and saving the planet? Nope, it’s about extracting yet more cash for the owners / shareholders who already have more money than they could ever spend anyway.
If the going rate of inflation is say 10% how can these robbing thieves double the prices on some things and nearly double it on others?
Also, for the first time in my life, some of the Shell / Texaco type garages round here are actually cheaper than fucking Morrisons. All in all a bunch of robbing crooks who pretend to be “on your side” but in reality want to rob you blind.
Fuck you Morrisons, for the first time I’m actually shopping around and you’ve lost a loyal customer you robbing fucks.

Anyone have Angela Lansbury in the Dead Pool?
4
She was amazing in, The Manchurian Candidate (1962), absolutely amazing. One of the great, ‘evil mothers’ ever. Such a great film. Might watch that tomorrow night.
5
her only good part, shit actress, had to go yank side to try and earn a living, always a sign of shitness

Haven’t been here in almost 5 years, but pretty sure I had Angela Lansbury in the dead pool. I’ve come to claim my £5

My Dad now gone, had a nickname for the mother in law of my eldest brothers wife
“Murder she wrote”
God rest you Angela, many an episode was witnessed.

I will try and rephrase that one Admin, so
“Murder she wrote” was my Dads private nickname to my eldest brothers wife, Mother in law.
A term of endearment by my Dad, as she was quite the Angela.
The only reason he was aware of Angela Lansbury was because of my Mams fascination of Agatha and “who done its” murder mysteries, so he suffered did my Dad till the end of the story.
Mind you he managed a clean shave between episodes and off to the local now and again.

The absolutely amazing thing about this site is sometimes I forget what the cnut ing is for. Post after post about baked beans. I was even trying to work out my favourite. Truth is I don’t care they all the same. Epic.
4
not the same, morrisons beans taste like shit, heinz are all watery sauce and the beans are hard, branston are best full of sugar, thick sauce and help me fart the nation anthem

once I had spaghetti hoops.
I felt very European!
6
Was it with meatballs?
I once had a Vesta Paella and felt very Bontinental.
Silly bunt.

Well MNC and RTC , I’m going to tell you right now, that i had Calamari once, so there and it was with the peasants in Madrid, When the boat came in.

I eat spaghetti hoops wearing a white vest at the table and talking like I’m in Goodfellas.
“Hey fergettabout it!
Passa me dat garlic bread you shmuck”

a cunt in the daily fail called it “Spag bowl” obviously had no idea its spag bol, short for bolognaise …fucking middle class twats

just stay clear of the alphabety stuff, makes you want to put a dress on and lay on a library floor with little kids

Called into a Tesco Extra whilst passing for a quick top-up shop 3-45pm yesterday and had to check the time wasn’t 3-45am as the place was almost deserted apart from a few ragamuffins that looked like dinghy riders. Looked at some of the shelf prices, you can see why indigenous folk are voting with their feet and shopping elsewhere. Viva Lidl, Aldi and don’t forget Home Bargains, B & M etc who carry lots of branded goods if they float your boat and you cant accept Shops-Own products.
Footnote…..whilst penning this I was just treated to my first Christmas ad on the idiot lantern….ffs!!

I find ALDI to be one of the most expensive, yet that chart says cheapest, a basic tin of catfood, not the good stuff, has gone from 32p up to 64p a can this year in Aldi, whiskers £1.20 a tin!!!…my cats don’t even like the shit and only eat it when there’s fuck all else. Its cheaper to get them big bag of frozen white fish or mince in morrisons and boil it up. Aldi pizza and oven chips are expensive too, their shitty ham is £3.45 for a little pkt and only £2 in my local premier….give Aldi a miss

You can’t pick and choose In a small town. You’re stuck with what you’ve got. I’ve got Asda. No longer the fit bird smacking her arse “that’s Asda price”. So long as you’re thrifty, you can make things appear cheaper. Always use the conveyer belt for someone else to scan the goods. That’s what they’re paid for. If they bring in a reduction on the self-checkout, then I’ll use it.

I once read that supermarkets make more money holding onto your cash and delaying to pay the suppliers than on the product markups themselves.
Or something.
Cunts.

It gets worse

Some twat had a pop at me this summer for using a parent and child bay.
I’d just popped in for some beers for a BBQ we were having, and my son helped carry the beer.
He was 29 at the time, but that didn’t seem to fit this twat’s notion of parent and child.
Even asking them not to be such a twat didn’t help either

I’m just glad that fat tongued mongoloid cunt Jamie fucking Oliver keeps putting the kibosh on multi buy deals. He really does have the best interests of the nation at heart. Cant run a business for toffee but seems to think hes got all the answers for everything else.
