Shopping list

Pretty low on yogurt, so am planning to be there when Sainsbury's opens tomorrow.

I asked S if she wanted anything, and would she make me a list if so ? 

Here's what I got:
BACOFOIL FOIL not too long to fit in the drawer
Sainsbury's Plain White Flour NOT BASIC
Smoked salmon x 1
poached salmon x 1
FLORA ORIGINAL 500 gm
Bread
Milk
Small croissants
Butter x 4
Freezer bags
Sainsbury's Mature Cheddar 4 strength x 2 not basic 
Now, apart from the obvious omission of 36 yogurts, which is so easy to fix, this looks like a highly technical list to me, full of nuance and beartraps for the unwary shopper, ie me.

What to make of lower case and upper case ? Look at the different emphases. Is there any chance of coming back with the right stuff ? The odds do not look good.....

This is a proper shopper's list, and probably well beyond my clearance level.

In the past I have actually been removed from shopping detail for slipshod purchasing, but have been rehabilitated. And now this....


At least my yogurts will be right, and they really brighten up most of the fridge.
Sainsbury's BASIC plain yogurt, red and white x 36 50 p a pop. Yum. Can't wait.
 Watch this space.

  1. Sainsburys do a selection of butter. Will you know which butter to get as it is not specified in your list. You may be ok if you don't pick the basic. X
