Asda vent

We don't have one locally so go to the S!!!!horpe one occasionally for clothes and bits.
Today every item of clothing my DW chose was not available in a 16, they had no nightdresses, and no casual mens shirts so very frustrated.
Also, our local Aldi has had no big tubs of low fat yoghurt recently, well Asda didn't have any either!
Plus who decides where things go on shelves, we wanted a bright ES bulb, couldn't find any bulbs so asked and were directed to an unmarked isle, there we found a few low brightness bulbs, as we gave up another shopper told us to look at the shelves against the wall and there we found the 100w halogen bulb we were looking for!
OK vent over need a cup of tea now.

    Not relevant, but I can't believe that S-c-u-n-t-h-o-r-p-e is censored.

    Don't like it take your custom elsewhere. Maybe yoghurt is really in demand in your area. Maybe a local newspaper mentioned something about the health giving benefits of yoghurt and everyone went out and boght a tub.

    Maybe all the size 18 local ladies have been dieting on low-fat yoghurt and as they've lost weight, now need to buy all new size 16 clothes?

    Thanks so much to all who post :)
  • Perhaps all the ladies in Scu nthorpe are 18 or over. The skinny girls shop in New Look and Primark.

    Incidentally, I occasionally post on another football related board and that also doesn't like the town name. Think it must be the US software..

    Hint, look at the first t, it's a bit lighter.
