    Inspired by a convo in work yesterday, what items could you buy that if they were on their own no-one would bat an eyelid but if you buy them at the same time youre guaranteed a suspicious or dirty look.

    Id have to go with a pregnancy test,whiskey and coat hangers

    Ideas people?

    I went into the store last night to just grab some bogroll but now you've got me thinking, how weird you look at the checkout with just a pack of Charmin Ultra and Condoms?

    I usually buy out of town. When I'm using the local supermarket I only need bits and pieces. Which is usually toilet roll, beer and yop. Or toilet roll, wine and brilo pads. Or whiskey, toilet roll and and a bag of gummy bears.

    There's always toilet roll involved though.

    I was working in a supermarket when I was a teenager and some girl came in and bought a load of laxatives (3 or 4 boxes) with her shopping, I had a good snigger at this.

    It wasn't until I was telling my grilfriend this, she asked me:
    Her: 'was the girl really skinny?'
    Me: haha, yup!
    Her: 'uhh.. Hail, you do know you probably just sold laxatives to an anorexic girl!!!'
    Me: 'Um... What?'

    I remember finding a receipt in a sales car once. On it was -

    A pack of 8 Durocell batteries
    A tub of Vaseline
    A family pack size of extra safe condoms
    A pack of rubber gloves.

    Needless to say, i got the valetor to clean the seats....:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,660 ✭✭✭Blitzkrieger


    KY jelly + anything is a no-no really.

    A guy was telling me once he was buying a bunch of bananas and a pair of tights one night, when the check-out guy who knew he lived alone asked : "Big night planned?"

    He swears the bananas were for eating and the tights for polishing his shoes....

    I buy 20 Benson and Lucozade Sport together sometimes.
    Not suspicious, but I like the ironic combinations.

    Orange juice and toilet roll is a bit awkward.

    Lucozade is water, salt and sugar. It's probably less healthy than smoking.

    back in the day round halloween, one of the lads bought 48 eggs and a packet of skittles.. :P


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,510 ✭✭✭Hazys


    Keeping with the theme...

    Go to the counter ask do they sell condoms?

    If they reply 'No', wander around the store a bit, come back with a packet of taytos, elastic bands and some ky jelly.

    On a somewhat related theme Ed Byrne does a really funny bit in one of his acts.

    He said that himself and the girlfriend used to do this when they were having people over at their house for a party.

    They would go to a supermarket and fill their shopping trolley with nothing beer and spirits but then on the very top they would put a pack of nappies. When they got near to the till they would start a conversation.

    He would say: "hey... do you have any money?"

    She would say: "Amm... no, why have you not got enough?"

    He would say: "No, we don't have enough...."

    She says: "well then put something back"

    He hands her the packet of nappies she happily takes them back to their shelf... the looks on other peoples faces is priceless... :D

    Well it's the sporting image that's associated with the product... and as a smoker I'm not going exactly going to be jogging anywhere... so it's at least ironic on a more superficial level.

    Did a shopping run up north for a few friends, trolley included 3 boxes of baby food, 60 nappies, pregnancy tests, tampons and about £100 worth of booze, didn't even cop it till later.
