medusa Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 But you're just an insignificant little person and are probably unhappy with my assessment because you have realised it is a true reflection on the people who shop there and a little home truths hurt. However the same can be said for Waitrose and to some extent Sainsbury's which is a kind of linkiing shop from riff-raff to snob. Look around at people, see how the dress, act and talk, it's pathetic. So walking round Waitrose in my bike leathers wouldn't match your expectations then? Can you keep your hatred and inverse snobbery to yourself please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i'm at home, it'll be Asda or Morrisons, if i'm at work, it'll be Sainsburys, if i'm in town, it'll be M&S or Sainsburys. What shopping category do I fall into? Part time snob???

schoolrdgal Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Think the majority of oldies like myself were not able to afford to shop in M & S . Now that I can it gives me a buzz. I wouldn't do a weekly shop there, as I work in a supermarket. Not alot of money around when I was young,and I aspired to being able to shop in the shops that I couldn't afford, and now I can WOO HOO ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason for not shopping in Somerfield, if it was closest I probably would. Didn't know there was a Spar in town. Why not M&S or Sainsburys?

schoolrdgal Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Good for you, Schoolrdgal! Thanks shortcrust, someone also mentioned that they saw a gentleman doing his shopping in a shirt and tie and sportsjacket. I also make an effort and dress up a bit , make it an occasion, put some makeup on and a dress. Always have to wear trousers for work, so this also makes me feel better about myself. These days though, nearly going for industrial strength foundation. lol ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point I was making is that Somerfield is near M&S and Sainsburys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
