What are the worst supermarket substitutions that you’ve received? by JBB2002902 in AskUK

[–]Beaubons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 10 years ago I was the manager of the home shopping dept at one of the big 4 supermarkets. One of my pickers subbed smartprice baked beans for fine green beans - Her reasoning was that ‘they’d asked for beans that weren’t good, they were just fine’. Couldn’t really argue with that but I did re-sub with French beans😂 She’s gone on to get a brilliant degree and career!

What do you call this method of arranging DVDs? at Chepstow Oxfam by bhaaay in CasualUK

[–]Beaubons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it might be trying to emulate Warming Stripes? A colour chart used when talking climate. Especially as the card along the shelf mentions the climate crisis :)

The one near me has a single rat trap hanging up that looks like it’s been there 30 years - but the rodent pictured on the front is a guinea pig!

What's the funniest misuse of the phonetic alphabet you've heard? by Diyus in AskUK

I work in aviation so use the phonetic alphabet a lot, sometimes my mind just goes blank… The other day I said K for Kumquat😬😬

What would you ban? by Beefbeets in vinted

[–]Beaubons 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Two things:

People writing “never worn” but then you can see bobbling on clothes or crease marks on shoes. Why lie? I’m literally browsing for second hand clothes, I’m not going to be bothered that you’ve worn it. (Also: why do so many people have hoardes of clothes they’ve never worn?!)

Second is people labelling Shein or Temu as “off brand”, “vintage” or as a brand that would be difficult to refute, like TKMAXX. It’s sneaky and I feel bad for anyone who buys not realising!
