I want to confuse the cashier for the rest of their life
box of matches, thread, empty cardboard box, canned meatballs, single straw
(To catch a fox, one must bait them into a fiery tomb of their own demise)
I don’t know, man. Is the cashier paid enough to give a damn?
Having worked in retail for 15 years, I certainly wouldn’t care. You’re just keeping an eye on how long until your shift ends 😅
(It’s still fun reading the suggestions though.)
A friend who worked at a co-op saw someone buy a cucumber and some condoms. Certainly stuck in their head and mine
5 x 1kg bags of rice.
Go back and buy another 5 x 1kg bags of rice.
Do it again.
And finally, with the last of your money, buy 4 more.
Its a large enough object and repetitive enough that they will actually notice and remember it. Splitting it into multiple transactions makes it seem more unusual.
Aldi sell 1kg bags of plain white rice for 52p each, so you can buy 19 bags and have 12p left over.
That much rice is almost 70 million calories - 70k kcal
Deep heat, condoms, superglue, brillo pads, and a tube of pringles.
“Gaming session with the lads.”
Tinfoil, copper wire, 9V battery and a bottle of HP sauce.
That’s genius
10 sherbet dib-dabs, a croissant, a lighter, and a straw.
20 sherbet dib dabs would probably set you back fifty quid these days
You’re right. It’s 55p for 1 in Tesco, the utter shits. I’ll amend.
The person in front of me at Boots had a basket with Alka Seltzer and pregnancy test. Not confusing but told a story.
For sale. Baby shoes. Overworn. Take them, please ffs.
A “crossword puzzle” book, a tin opener and a pack of condoms.
No confusion, just the lingering stain(s) of loneliness.
…add a small pack of party balloons?
A few jars of hot sauce, jerk seasoning and a korma because you look them in the eye and say you can’t stand spicy things.
