Tobacco Bacon


Today's list comes from Waitrose in Tenterden. Seems like a sedate list until you get the shouty "BREAD HAM" and "TOBACCO BACON" demands. Plus, I'm still trying to figure out who Colin Butter might be. If you know Colin Butter, please get in touch.

List #4: Pool-Cleaning Butter Lovers



Clearly this person regards a shopping trip as a life event. They've got the groceries taken care of, some of it incredibly specific (Duerr's Marmalade, fine cut) some extraneous business (chlorine tabs, haircut, clean pool) and financial instructions too ( cash £170, cash till say £250). These are the sort of people who only go to the supermarket once a week and use the giant carts. They also love butter, as they've listed it on both sides of the list.

List #3


Proof that it doesn't matter that you can't spell the name of a certain long yellow fruit, or that you insert a random apostrophe as long as your items are numbered.

Also, it's a grocery list with the word BANK randomly inserted in the middle. You'd think it'd be on its own at the top or bottom, wouldn't you? Or even on the other side of the paper.

Maybe the bank is in the supermarket now? Or perhaps they want a piggy bank?

List #2

I was concerned as to what bit cats were until I realized they meant KitKats.

List #1


It appears that someone likes butterflies, as well as minimalism.

Biscotti and sardines seem oddly specific...
