Mundane News

[Grant Fondo]

An up-and-down night yellow stickering in Tesco - pickings were slim in chilled goods and fruit & veg. Bakery, damaged goods bin and deli counter turned up trumps though.

I am now in possession of enough HCB to feed all the mundaners several times over, picked up six 100g bars of 70% dark chocolate for 15p a bar because they were short-dated and best buy of the night, £25-worth of olives and antipasti for £2.

I also figured out why the Green & Black dark chocolate with ginger was on clearance last week - they've changed the size of the bars. They are now 90g as opposed to 100g. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr @ shrinkflation... At least I managed to stock up on the bigger bars.

One doesn't do yellow stickers at Waitrose....does it mean scallops are not hand-dived?

With sort of austerity, next thing, they'll be introducing rationing. Or the sword dance.

The Sword Dance at Yellow Sticker time could be interesting.

I'll take the sword dance at Yellow Sticker time. Quite happily.

Used to fence, you see. All three weapons. To a pretty decent standard - used to do A-grade competitions at sabre.

Local Waitrose used to be really good for YS stuff when they shut at 6 pm. You could go there around half four and come out with a trolley full for not a lot, everything marked down to 10p, 20p, that sort of thing. Since they extended their opening hours, there's never been anything worthwhile to be had, so I generally don't bother.

They'll set the alarms off, when you go in though.

No need to take my own - they sell brooms and mops in store

Well, maybe I could, considering I only tend to sup after 8pm.
