An old trick when asked if something was in the stockroom just hide behind the stockroom door for a minute or so chatting to another staff member then come out and say sorry there is none in the stockroom . We used to do it 30 years ago so you can be sure the same happens now .
I do the "move them about a bit/looking behind them' thing, lol. I had a shopping habit of always reaching to get things from the back of the shelf because those items would normally have better expiration dates on them but some stores seem to have cottoned on to this, as recently the items right at the front have had better dates on them than the stuff right at the back, it's almost as if they're counting on "reachers" like myself not to notice they're putting the short dated items at the back of the shelves now.🧐
I think we all have a similar story. We make out a list, and typically my wife puts Meat, Fish, Veg, Milk, Bread but we always end up a huge number of items NOT on the list. And those that ARE on the list seem to be elastic. For instance veg. Sounds simple, harmless, cheap, until you find out it entails potatoes, tomatoes, leeks, onions, mushrooms, green beans, cabbage, cauliflower, broccolli, peppers, squash, carrots, sweetcorn, apples, bananas, strawberries and chocolate. Technically Cocoa is a plant, therefore chocolate is veg. And it's the same for everything she has listed, there's whole chicken, chicken thighs, chicken breats, drumsticks, wings, sliced chicken, diced chicken, frozen chicken, and that's before we move onto beef, pork or lamb. Women will wonder why men don't like shopping, it's because we know who is going to be doing the heavy lifting. lol
NEVER go to the supermarket to shop for a “few things” when you’re hungry. You end up with a full bag load of snacks and other crap that you’ll be chucking out 5 days later.
I have never asked someone to go to the shops for me or 'sent' someone in my life and certainly not a female. If I have ever wanted something, then the most natural thing in the world for me to do is to go and get it myself.
The 2 main supermarkets in the UK are : Tesco and sainsburys As an American you may have come in contact with Tescos . In America they called themselves "Fresh and Easy " . But folded as they didn't understand the American Market which is like a "Costco" . We now how Costco's in a few places ....and the "Big" packs are seductive .. My sister shops at Costco in a place called "Watford" ( Elton John's stomping ground ) . I went a few times - the Hogdogs are brilliant but I would never buy hotdogs from a takeaway or on the street . I just eat them at "Costco" . Tescos - also launched a brand in Asia called "Tesco-Lotus" - I think that also went out of business due to no understanding the country/culture they were selling to . Our supermarkets are not the same as alot of supermarkets around the world . What works here doesn't work abroad. Although both sainsburys and tescos are still in Europe mainland . Our supermarkets will sell you anything - electricity, mobile contracts , banking ,broadband, industrial waste . They are also very very big landowners in the country .
This is familiar to every man who's volunteered , or more like been pressed into going shopping . The local one is ten minutes walk and fine for you , but for someone else wife , mother, friend - always go to the big one .
Any Man from The UK who has been with his partner for, say,5 years or more, knows, that this, rarely, ends well. Or even with female friends. Last Monday,I arrived in London to visit my friend and, as agreed,I rang when near. "Hi". "Can you go to Tescos and get me a bottle of coke and sandwich" ME: "You have only been home 5 minutes and walked past there so why didn't YOU get them?" HER "I wasn't hungry or thirsty 5 minutes ago. Can you just GO". I walk back 10 minutes to where I was 10 minutes earlier and get them.I arrive. HER, opening bag "What's this? I explain the obvious "NOT THAT SIZE of Bottle and why is Mayonaisse on my sandwich?" "Don't Want It !" 10 mins later she has eaten the lot..

"expiration"! ...what happened to expiry? 🤷🤦
A bit of Micky Flanagan will put a Sandy Lyle on your Boat Race. 😉
You still need to see “the lazy French” with Mickey.
It's in a previous video 👍
The supermarket is called Sainsbury’s. You have missed the s. For the OCD people around.
Nick - you look proper cool with the three lions baseball cap on. Big up your channel guys - much love.
My big Sainsbury's is only a 10 minute walk away. Micky would be so jealous.
This was great. Not sure, but I remember it being longer...
I’m from the uk he is a legend and so funny! Been watching ur videos but not subscribed but am now 😊

You ‘enjoy going to the grocery store’ 😂😂😂
I would love to see Micky reacting to you reacting to his videos 😂😂😂
Sainsburys down the road. Bought my Christmas wrapping paper there a few days ago. I also buy my granola and yogurt. 🇬🇧👵🎅🌲

MF is absolute tops - one of the best UK comics around atm 🇬🇧
Keep up the good work - love your uploads
Babe, you don't go down the local for the good stuff. You go for bits
I've seen that one before but had such a good time watching your reaction! 😎😎😂😂
I do that extra same thing if my son does the shopping (he works in a supermarket), but I refuse to let my wife shop lol.
Have either of you ripped an apple apart yet?
Try as a man shopping for tampax for the gf and teenagers and having a similar conversation on the phone.😂
Pro tip-open your camera to video and film the shelf, whatsapp it to them so they can tell you exactly what they want.
When you pull out the bins, how often have you found the product you’re looking for?
Sainburys Local, Tesco Metro... unless you want a frozen pizza, they're useless...
Went to the same school as Micky he very funny
If you love a dad joke Tim Vine is a funny English comedian to check out.
Agreed.. Hopefully they do react to him soon
Cleaver story telling
I work at a Asda Store which happens to be Walmart in the UK.
That's why I don't use Asda.
You need to watch mrs browns boys. A classic British tv show can’t not love it
