Anyone doing their food shop tonight?

[polo_princess]

Am i the only mad one here ... i cant be

Planning on going at about 11pm int he hope that it'll be fairly quiet and i wont have to put up with the crazy pushing, shoving and people grabbing everything off the shelves like that shops are going to be shut for a month

I did mine this morning, if I had of realised it was open 24hrs I honestly would have left it until late on tonight, though have a feeling it may be as bad, when I was leaving there was ques of traffic into tesco the whole way around the town, total madness.

Hopefully most will do their shopping "late" as in 8/9pm and be on their way out 10/11pm ... well thats my theory anyway, last year i went at 9pm and it was heaving, but 11pm is more like bedtime isnt it, esp in this weather

I did mine today in waitrose, it was empty lol x

 

[polo_princess]

No way really?

OH went to Tesco at about 8pm last night and he said it was choas, people swearing and arguing over parking in the car park, no trolleys, etc etc

Why does the xmas food shop turn some people into idiots?

The waitrose is in the village and a bit crap, so most people went to Tesco, lucky I had all frozen food anyway so I was able to just go to waitrose, the lady said it was busy earlier but I must have gone when half the village had afternoon nap lol xx

Although, I forgot to get some jack daniels so I need to go to Tesco tomorrow!

We went to Sainsburys last night - it wasn't any more busy than usual. A few things missing off the shelves, like loose brussels and swede, but nothing major. Car park was half empty, and no queues at the till. I was quite surprised really.
