What did you buy that you normally wouldn't?

[BarryRoad]

NEW SAINSBURY'S!

I bought a toaster for about ?4.

Quite tempted to put a few iPods and In-Car GPS' in there next time....

[SimonM]

A jar of Sainsbury's own brand Raita....

[snorky]

I want some of that argentinian milk based vanillary spread stuff for bread - dont know if they stock it or what its called tho'

[mockney piers]

I think it's called horchata. You can get it from spain, but I might be thinking of something else.

Dulce de leche? Nero

thats it!

I have also just found out that the Cheese Block is a stockist - there is also another stockist on LL - but I refuse to name the establishment or give it any of my time / direct any business in its direction

so head for the Cheese Block !

PS - need to get the snorklets off their appalling Nutellea stuff, hence this idea

nutella's not so bad snorky. at least it has protein content.

to get back to the original thread - I didn't buy anything I normally wouldn't, in fact bought less than usual because I got all discombobulated in there, don't like the layout of the fruit & veg section.

Was intrigued to see you can buy tents and sleeping bags etc. Anyone who's serious about camping would not buy a tent from sainsbo's.

[BarryRoad]

I didn't even see the fruit and veg section... lucky I wasn't buying any as it was :-)

people rave about Italian chocolate - but it all seems to be nutella derived -urgh

tents etc - def. has to be Decathalon in surrey quays - not Sainsurys

[Ladygooner]

I bought a Douglas Kennedy book for ?4.99 (?2 off) and a bottle of Vina Sol for a mere ?3.99!

[dulwichmum]

I am lying in my sick bed with the flu - please tell me some news of the spanking new Starbucks... Is it real? Is it open? Did it have arm chairs and Vente Latte???

[BarryRoad]

Poor Dulwich Mum. Maybe there's a new and improved pharmacy aisle that Dulwich Dad can visit!

Starbuck's is a bit bigger than before, probably twice as big. I was rushing to get home so didn't buy a coffee or take a seat or anything.

[Steph]

I bought almost all of the TU (Sainsburys clothing)collection and was shocked when I got to the till to be asked for ?69! I am taking it all back tomorrow. Just cant help myself...

[dulwichmum]

Thank you Barry Road, however Dulwich dad is not in fact my husband - he does sound rather nice though. James is my husband (for the time being anyway) I wish he would come home and look after me. Give me some solpadeine and plump up my pillows.

So sorry you are taken to your bed with the vapours...

[BarryRoad]

DM - I haven't spotted a DulwichDad on here yet, sorry for the mistake!

Get well soon :-)

Asset, if you think it odd that SED (Sainsbury's East Dulwich) is selling tents. In the Sydenham branch they are selling wet-suits and surf boards. Bit random.

ps discombobulated has to be the best word ever used in this place

[snorky]

PS another tripet resulted in an MP3 player.

Scarey

[Bleep]

I might visit tonight on the way home from work.

[citizenED]

Sad, but I went in there and bought exactly the same shopping as a I always did...
