A sneaky taste/smell in the supermarket?

supernova84 · 24-07-2012 10:21PM #1

When I'm buying hair gel or shampoo I sometimes pop open the lip and have a sneaky sniff, same with deodorant. What kind of sneaky things do you get up to in the supermarket?

i do my shopping and leave

I read the paper and then leave it back.

**** in the deli counter

Everyone does those things.

My mum is forever stealing grapes. Just walks over to them, breaks off a bunch and walks around the shop eating them. She does the same with mushrooms!! And strawberries.

Im a right cow for deciding I dont want half my basket when i get to the checkout and just dumping it on the end of the belt. I used to hate this when i worked in SV

I don't think tasting shampoo and deodorant will be good for you in the long run OP.

Just remember, everything in moderation!

I do that when choosing women.

I feel like a criminal when I leave without buying anything.

When working in a supermarket before, seen a woman drop a jam jar, thought no one was looking and promptly kick it under the shelf!

Easier than just letting a member of staff know apparently!

Hardly sneaky - everyone does this. You need to know what this stuff smells like before you buy.

Yeah I normally walk right behind them, take a deep sniff and say "aaaahhhhhhh" and then I unbutton my....wait what?

I've recently started to break the florets of broccoli from the stem.

(it gets weighed at the till y'know) :pac:

I usually only have a sneaky sniff in private, I'm not one of those people who walks around in public with their hands down their kacks.

I climb into fridge freezers and pretend to be frozen in time like Buck Rogers

Only if its deodrant or something but I rarely do. I find myself picking up loads of random crap that I really dont need but just want, like chocolate and nice looking products. I wish they had more sampling trays set up these days.
That was my favorite part about going shopping as a kid, as you were always bound to get at least 1 nice sample

I read 'The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas' in Hughes and Hughes without buying it. My son was browsing at the time and I did buy him a book. I'm a super fast reader so it only took me about an hour.

OP, you seem to do a worrying amount of sneaky perving, sniffing, tasting, fondling and fingering judging by your recent posts.
