"I've got a trolley is that ok?"
No! baskets! B-A-S-K-E-T-S is that giant thing on wheels a basket? no so you can't pay for your crap here!
[10 items or less]
"why can't i pay here I've only got 12 things!"
You can't pay here because whatever educational facility you attended as a child has utterly failed you.
Thanks all.
Why can't they useit, what is the purpose of the basket checkout, do customers really want a basket checkout or do they just want a quick service and perhaps the basket checkout isn't actually the answer.
Oh and stop whining.0 -
My pet hate is people who queue with about 4 items, then other half, or more often chav 38 year old nan comes and joins them with the other 9 million items shes been selecting whilst her scummy grandaughter keeps a place in the queue.0

I calculated that over a 6 month period, we'd spent more on repairing supermarket dents to our car than on food at the local Tesco. So I opened an account at Sainsbury's and do all our shopping with home delivery now.
People are idiots, and if I ever caught anyone flinging a door open on mine or any other car, there would be revenge.

small but noticable dent just under the door handle.......... (and a smear of dog egg on the back of the handle is needed here)
peers in for a closer look at the dent....... gets a whiff of the toly..... checks feet.... and surrounding area before hopefully digging fingers into the turd to open the door.
bonus points if you see them scraping under the nail before going homeIt's a boy , It's a boy , I Shouted Running Into The Street With Tears Running Down My Face.....

My pet hate is self service which is set to grow and grow.
Supermarkets have for years been getting planning permission to build on the basis of job creation. Well in a few years when rfid replaces barcode, and there is no reason to even get your goods out of the trolley, there will be no feckers left working at the supermarket and we'll still be paying the same for far less service.You only need two tools: WD40 and Duck Tape.
If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.0 -
Saying about staff, another thing I hate is the 24 hour supermarket trick of blocking everything you want with stock cages, then the staff that were previously standing around chatting spring into life when you start moving their stuff for them. By spring into life I mean sarcastically say "oh I'll move that shall I" as if you are in the way, being in their supermarket, shopping0

I did a "big shop" at 22:30 in Tesco one Friday night. They then advised me that all the tills were closed so I'd have to put it through self serve checkout. I asked them politely to get a checkout assistant from somewhere, but they told me they didn't have anyone available. They said they'd be able to help us, but I said I didn't want to use the self serve. In the end I just watched two of their staff put everything through - they also ended up packing it for me as they went. I don't think they enjoyed it though.0

From this, I can deduce that you are either retarded or just a d1ck. Why would you do a "big shop" at 22:30 on a Friday night and then complain that the tills are closed? If you have no arms, then I can understand your complaint, but then again, why did you do your "big shop" so late at night? Go during the day if you want help!It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

Why should I do Tesco's job for them? If they open a shop at night they should supply staff to take my money at night. The self serve aisle is designed for people to go through quickly with a few items. The normal tills with their conveyor belts are designed for people with a trolley full of shopping.
I went shopping at night because that was convenient around work and because the shop was open.0 -

Ohhhhhhh, a supermarket rant.
My turn.
People who park in the spaces for people with children, even though they've not got any children with them - having a kid at home, or knowing someone with a kid does NOT entitle you to park here.
People who park in the disabled spaces - "I'm just popping in" does not entitle you to park here, although the fact you are so retarded to think it does, might actually qualify you as "disabled"
!
i very nearly had a fight with a guy who parked in a kids spot without a kid just before we were going to pull into it (i know not big or clever to turn to fisty cuffs) but my gf said 'where's your child?' to him and he turned around and said 'what the feck has it got to do with you feck off'..well red mist came down and i grabbed the fecker and was gonna pummel his fat, cocky face in until 2 of his mates pulled me off him...he said 'you better watch it' to me, then went and moved his car....he then proceeded to avoid me in tesco as i was still fuming and was still gonna smash his head in.....
I sometimes park in those spaces why should someone who's chosen to get pregnant and have a child get a closer spot. Being disabled is entirely different as its not self inflicted.0 -
It's not about being closer, that's up to the supermarkets where they put them. I just need space to open my doors fully without hitting the car next to me to lift my kids in and out. Got a blue badge now so the parent spaces are less of an issue.0

What odd boo said, you obviously have never tried getting a kid out of the car seat when some numpty has parked 6 inches from your car. Hence why they usually have yellow cross hatch sections either side.

No I haven't and as I said the spaces in the local supermarket are no bigger just closer.
Anyway, again you chose to have a child why should you get special treatment.0 -

And clearly it wasn't convenient for you to shop at night, as the services you required weren't available, so shut the fark up and shop during the daytime where you can get helped with your special needs.It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

I'm with mcnultycop on this. If they're going to stay open then they should have a checkout available unless they are making it clear that there are reduced services out of normal hours. We've got kids and sometimes the only time that we get to do the shopping is when the kids are in bed and either me or the missus goes out.0 -

Seriously, if you have issues that you have to do something for yourself, then I have 3 options for you:
1. Go during the day
2. Do internet shopping
3. Jump off a cliff as you're clearly a bellend.It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

Things I hate at Supermarkets -
People who pay by cheque
Supermarkets where for some reason they have the same thing but with different branding in 4 different areas. All you want is a huge bottle of chilli but the one you want is hidden away in some tiny 'Food of South Laos' section next to the 'Tesco's Finest vegan spelt flour with cranberries'Visit Clacton during the School holidays - it's like a never ending freak show.

Tescos is also bewildering with some things. I mean, why are eggs in the same place as ribena, tea, coffe and redbull?0 -

My mate had just staretd uni and wanted a table and chairs so we just walked in in high vis vests and lifted them, was only meant to be a freshers prank, didnt expect to get away with them0 -
Annoying....
the dodgy self serve... you spend ages rotating each product, stretching packing until it finally reads the code.... or doesn't then having to type the thing in.
Voucher hunters... got a fistful of vouchers, then pay the entire bill in small change, buttons & bits of string from the bottom of your bag, always happens when i'm in a rush, big queue, voucher hunter at the front oblivious
Bargain scavs... hovering over the woman with the yellow sticker gun, then scrabbling for the bargains
Funny...
The man in Asda with the big pointy hand on a stick that says "space here" I reckon he should be holding it the other way round...0
