When you’re bored with movies and TV shows, you’d better go to a supermarket. The stories that happen there are sometimes so fascinating, that you’ll want to say, “Hey, I want to see the second season of this!”

Story 1

I am standing in line at the checkout in a supermarket, and 2 women with children are standing a bit away from us. There was jelly candy scattered on the floor, and the children were eating directly from the floor. The guard came up to them, and asked them to clean up this mess.
So, these women spilled the rest of the candy on the floor and left. I felt so sorry for the guard and the children who have such irresponsible mothers. © Overheard / VK

Story 2

Recently, some guy wandered around the supermarket with a very important face: the CEO of the world, no less. I watched him for a long time, but then decided to play a joke on him.
I approached him and asked, “Do you know where can I find noodles on sale?” When he protested, I apologized, of course, as if I had inadvertently mistaken him for a supermarket employee. You should have seen his face.

Story 3

I was standing in line in a supermarket and began to search my pockets for coins. Then a squeak came out of my pocket. And everyone looked at me surprised.

 

What do they want me to say? That I’ve got rubber ducklings in my pocket? Well, I do. © PinocchioSeKwon / Twitter

Story 4

I’m standing in line in a supermarket. A woman is in front of me, and her child is literally screaming. She doesn’t react to it for a long time at first, but then she shouts at her, “Kate, stop crying!” The child starts crying even louder.

And I don’t understand why the mum can’t make a simple math in her mind, “Screaming + screaming = more screaming.” © Derbershto / Twitter

Story 5

I was at a supermarket, and went to get some tomatoes. They were all damaged and wrinkled. So, I carefully picked better ones and put them into a plastic bag.

Then a woman in a supermarket waistcoat runs up to me and starts shouting, “It’s not a market, you can’t choose tomatoes, you should take them as they are!” I calmly asked her to pick a couple of pounds for me. She carelessly poured all the tomatoes I had chosen from the bag back into the tray, just grabbed tomatoes without looking, and proudly handed the bag to me.

I asked her to hold the basket, as if I had to take out my phone, then just turned around and walked away in silence. © Subjectiviy / Pikabu

Story 6

My husband is a peaceful giant. He is 6 feet 5 and can look quite imposing, even though he really is a teddy bear. Never stressed or aggressive, never overreacting or raising his voice, just a peaceful giant.
So here we are, at the grocery shop, with our 6-month-old baby shopping for food and whatnot. It is winter in Canada and we are both wearing our coats. The kid is fussy and nothing really calms him except when we carry him in our arms. It’s my turn and my husband is going back and forth gathering what we need and bringing the items to our cart when the banshee-from-hell (BFH from now on) got in his face (figure of speech, she was like 5 feet 2) and started yelling at him, “Are you done? You’ve been helping her forever, and I need help! Now!”

My husband (with his smooth everything-is-good kind of tone), “I’m so sorry, but I’m afraid I do not work here…” BFH, “Lies! I just saw you help her shopping. Now, you help me! And you do not talk back to me!” My husband sees me boiling and about to interfere but makes a sign that says he is going to deal with it.

He then calmly look at her with a smile. BFH (smuggling), “Good! Now, help me grab the last item on this high shelve. Why in the hell you people always put the stuff I need so high is beyond me. Now, chop-chop!” My husband grabs the item, but instead of giving it to her, he keeps it just a tiny bit out of her reach. He looks at it and then at me.
Husband (grinning), “Honey, do we need this?” Me (catching on), “Well, as a matter of fact, yes! We do!” Lady, “What?! How dare you give her my stuff!” Super slowly, my husband gets closer to the lady. He is so imposing that she calms down immediately.

With the biggest of smile and the most polite voice ever, he says to her, “Again, I do not work here… but thank you for showing me this condiment. We were about to forget it.” And with that, he puts the item in our cart, grabs the baby and together, we leave. In the background, the lady howling some profanities. All 3 of us smiling. I love my husband. © poweredbyweirdhumour / Reddit

Story 7

An old boyfriend and I were shopping and being silly, tossing stuff to each other to put in the cart. He tossed a package of paper towels to me and a dude springs out from behind me, intercepts the towels, and runs them back for a touchdown. Complete with dance in the aisle at the end. © No_Cricket808 / Reddit

Story 8

Standing at the supermarket checkout. At the next checkout, a dad and his young son approach the cashier. When the father starts to pay, the son tilts his head, sticks out his tongue and licks the conveyor belt that was moving at that moment. Apparently, he decided to look at the long wet trail his tongue left.

When his dad looked at him, the boy had already stopped licking the belt and no one but us saw it. © Overheard / VK

Story 9

I was high school age, doing routine grocery shopping with my mom when I got the hiccups. I get really loud hiccups, and they didn’t stop for the 3 aisles we trekked down. Some older gentleman rounded a corner to confront me and explained he was a doctor and made me breathe with him until they stopped.

He was so kind and patient! It was really funny in retrospect that I was making enough racket that he felt the need to intervene.

Story 10

At the flower shop, a boy of about 8 years old stood in line in front of me. He asked the shop assistant for a small bouquet. But it turned out he was a little short on money. He gave it a thought and then said, “Let me wash your floors, and you’ll sell me the bouquet afterwards.”

The seller smiled, and we all who were in line gave the young romantic a little money on the bouquet. © Podsushano / VK

Story 11

There was an adorable boy, probably 4 years old, with his dad. They were in front of me in the check-out line. The little boy was talking to his dad, but I wasn’t paying attention until the man said in a bit of a loud voice, “I don’t know. Why don’t you ask her?” The dad was looking at me while he said it.

The little boy then asked me my name. I told him and asked him for his name. He told me. Then he turned to his dad and said, “I’m going to marry her someday!” I felt highly complimented that this little guy was smitten with me! It made my night. © NolaJen1120 / Reddit

Story 12

Morning, 8 o’clock. I’m standing in the checkout line at the shop. An old lady is in front of me. She puts a single puff on the conveyor belt and gives the cashier a $100 bill.
The cashier punches it through and starts counting the change. The lady asks in surprise, “Do you have change?” The cashier, “Yes, I do.” Lady, “Then cancel the purchase, I’ll go to another shop.” © Chamber 6 VK

Story 13

My husband went to the supermarket. I asked him to buy me sanitary pads. When he came back, he brought the exact pads I use. I asked, “How did you know I use these?” And he said, “By the smell.” © Overheard / Ideer

Story 14

I was walking along the shelves in the grocery shop, it was raining heavily, the roof was leaking. They put a bucket under the leak. Then I see a mother with a child rushing to this bucket, and the child starts peeing into it.

The janitor runs up, “What’s going on?” And the mum says, “Why don’t you put children’s toilets in grocery shops?! It’s your fault!” Indeed. Children’s toilets in grocery shops. © Overheard / Ideer

Story 15

I was buying meat, and an old lady was hanging out next to me. While I was counting the money, she grabbed my bag and rushed toward the exit, saying, “You should help old people.” I followed her, trying to stop her, and she was like, “Your cheeks are wider than your ears. And I have nothing to eat.”

And she stood there, sly, waiting. People took chicken, pork on the bone. She didn’t want them, she wanted beef.
