One Aldi had loads of cucumber yesterday, I didn't look at the price.

If I have four tomatoes in my left hand, and three tomatoes in my right hand, what do I have?

[Mr Larrington]

The undivided attention of HMRC?

Scored 6 tomatoes in Morrisons yesterday. Result.

That is brilliant but too close to the bone to be funny.

I have had my delivery from Mr Sainsbury. In it, I received:
2 small packs of tomatoes*
1 pack 2 Romaine lettuce*
1 pack Imperfectly Tasty peppers*
A cucumber
Lots of other stuffs.
I reckon those on home delivery have their orders picked before the marauding hordes are admitted, so I've sort of jumped the queueue.

*Acceptable substitutes for ordered items

Ought I feel guilty?
We don't waste food and the fridge was almost empty yesterday.

No shortage of tomatoes, cucumbers and other veg here. But what I couldn't find today was rice. Or rather, there was rice, but it was all in fancy ready-cook pouches. I guess these have higher margin, maybe? They certainly have higher prices! So I had pasta instead.
