    The moral of this story, never go back to look at yoghurts :D
    Unless you're planning on being daring. Lick the lid of life and all that.

    I think the OP should have the book thrown at him (a dictionary that is) and made to re-sit GCSE English.
    Mortgage free as of 10/02/2015. Every brick and blade of grass belongs to meeeee. :j

    OP has been asking for support on the Tesco Misprice Thread.

    Personally I think the OP should be prosecuted for actual bad English, aggravated theft of the English language and possession of a Chavesaurus with an intent to supply.

    This is very funny reading!!!
    If l buy something and dont want/need one of the shops bags l automatically keep the receipt in my hand ready to show if nesscessary (oh dear! l think l've spelt that hidiously wrong!!) As it is PROVE OF PURCHASE! (sticks tongue in front of lip and makes that funny noise that your kids do behind your back!!)

    Oh dear, some people would rather be unhappy than wrong. I'd certainly be unhappy if the police cautioned me as I think that would plonk me straight on their naughty people database. Hardly worth it just to feel righteous.
    He may have been "advised" (possibly to just show his receipt in future) but there is no way he was cautioned. ;)

    Eventually the Police arrived and cautioned me, looked through ma bag n only found what i had paid for (obviously) anyhow they let me go after being searched and id checked i have a stop form with grounds say - identifieds as possible offender in shoplifting then says negative result.
    Being advised never sounds quite so dramatic as a Police "caution".

    Personally, "mountain out of a molehill" springs to mind; pity common sense isn't bottled and sold at Tesco.

    I wonder if the OP has got the message that he acted stupidly yet?

    It's reassuring to know that the OP hasn't been scarred for life by the experience.
    He's still giving his custom to Mr T...

    I've only read the first and last pages but there is no way the OP is more than 5yrs old with spelling like that!!

    Surely Tesco's shouldn't be out to corner 5yr olds believing they have stolen a copy of Beano.

    OP - Wasn't your mum with you???
