Banned from Tesco's
Ok, now I know what to do, so that my other half stop's draging me out shopping with her.

This letter was recently sent by Tesco's Head Office to a customer in
Oxford:

Dear Mrs.
Murray,

While we thank you for your valued custom and use of the Tesco Loyalty
Card, the Manager of our store in Banbury is considering banning you and
your family from shopping with us, unless your husband stops his antics.



Below is a list of offences over the past few months all verified by our
surveillance cameras:

1. June 15:
Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in people's trolleys when
they weren't looking.

2. July 2:
Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute intervals.

3. July 7:
Made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to feminine products
aisle.

4. July 19:
Walked up to an employee and told her in an official tone, 'Code 3' in
housewares..... and watched what happened.

5. August 14:
Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area.

6. September 15:
Set up a tent in the outdoor clothing department
and told shoppers he'd
invite them in if they would bring sausages and a Calor gas stove.

7. September 23:
When the Deputy Manager asked if she could help him, he began to cry and
asked, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?'

8. October 4:
Looked right into the security camera; used it as a mirror, picked his
nose, and ate it.

9. November 10:
While appearing to be choosing kitchen knives in the Housewares aisle asked
an assistant if he knew where the antidepressants were.

10. December 3:
Darted around the store suspiciously, loudly humming the 'Mission
Impossible' theme.

11. December 6:
In the kitchenware aisle, practised the 'Madonna look' using different size
funnels.

12. December 18:
Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed, yelled 'PICK ME!' 'PICK
ME!'

13. December 21:
When an announcement came over the loud speaker, assumed the foetal
position
and screamed 'NO! NO! It's those voices again.'

And; last, but not least:

14. December 23:
Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited a while; then yelled, very
loudly, 'There is no toilet paper in here.
#2 - sam93
Lol
Damn, pinged again !!!

Should be a law against not being able to express your creativity,
I LOL'd at each one of those.

I've done some stupid stuff in supermarkets in the past but those just make what I did rather petty.
That thing is older than me you DPM
I really wish that was true, if it is true then that man should be rewarded in some way for his creative bordem relief.
For the first few, I thought it was about Mackie. As I read on, I slowly realised that that was unlikely. Very funny though!

(I didn't read the O/P properly, clearly)
They should make that into a family guy episode, sounds really like something peter would do!
ROFLMAO.......That hurt...
Funniest thing I've read all week, made that bit better as I used to work for Tesco's.

If somebody shown that level of creativity where I work, I wouldn't ban them, I'd shake their hand.

Just don't ask what "code 3" stands for
I've seen that re-branded as ASDA, Sainsbury's, and Wal-Mart over the space of about 5 years.

That aside, it is still funny each time I read it.
1, 10 and 14 are the funniest... Gotta try those.
I once checked out a cucumber, a tube of a well-known water-based lubricant and a computing magazine just to see the look on the checkout dude's face.
Doesn't the original email end with "So we've had to end his contract of employment", thus making it funny as a whole because he is implied to work there? As it is it's just a collection of random funnies in a list, which isn't as funny.

Plus I'd read them before
My Dad did things like #1 to people who annoyed him at the shops He was an evil bugger!

This thread certainly brightened my day, cheers Mackie
That was awesome!
Love it, really needed it too, thanks!
lol that was funny, i can just imagine it
omfg!?

Not proud of it (yeah right!!) but at one stage or another in my life I
have done these points.
I also remember in a local Allders last year they had these wooden boxes for storing tea and coffee which had either a large letter T or a C on them. With a bit of creative rotation of the "C" ones you could make them spell a rude word.
Random RFID sticker stuck under annoyingly-loud-large-lady-with-peevish-miniature-husband's handbag.

Bingily bingily beep!

Excuse me ma'am, would you mind stepping over here?

Another good one is delicately balancing hangers just on the edge of falling off, and then doing it to an entire aisle. Next time someone walks past and generates a breeze clothing carnage will ensue! (but you don't want to hang around and giggle - thats a recipe for security to get involved )

Edit: Ooh and I remembered another one, that one of my friends at school did on his last day at a popular supermarket. He was stacking wheatbix and boxed himself in. Waited until someone tried picking one up and then burst out.

I don't think they let him do much else that day..
