Default Have you ever been grocery shopping @ about 2am?

...........to Asda's or whatever the equivalent 24 hour one is in your locality?

I did this 2 days ago and found it quite a laff - there was a woman there in her pyjamas and nightgown shopping. I thought it would be a good way to avoid the checkout queues, but there was only 1 till open so still a queue. I had to use the DIY checkout and stole 3 things.............I'm now awaiting the cops to arrive!

Yeah but not 'in' the night. Think it was about 11/midnight. Horrible though. I'd only do it if desperate for something

Funnily enough no. But I was joking with Lee a while back about Fife and her area is the same as mine..............

You can phone a taxi company and they will illegally bring you 20 B&H and a bottle of vodka at any time!!!!! You don't even have to make a taxi trip!

I forget which game it was, but a mate of mine works in a shop just across from the Game store - on it's release nutters had been queuing all night.

Pre-order and get it delivered you idiots was my thought.

When you Pre order you usually have to pay Ł39.99 for the game, Asda were selling it for Ł27.99 on Launch

Yes its the same in many stores
the night staff are to put out stock
then rush to the tills for customers.
Thats the idea, anyway.


If you stole things it will be on Camera.
They can ban you from that store, if they wish to.

I love it. It's quiet and you meet weird, bizarre people.
I usually buy ice cream and other useless stuff I like.

And I also go there when I come back from parties, at 4am, semi-drunk, to buy something to eat because I'm starving.

Night shopping is the best.

Yes! It's so funny to go late at night, actually much prefer it to going during the day - my local Tesco stays open until 11 so I normally wander down at like 10 and get bits and pieces if I need anything rather than battle through queues during the day; I've been to 24 hour ASDAs before at like 1am/2am out of boredom and hunger too.

LOL The girl across the street from me does it regularly - not night shopping but every weekend during the day on weekends!

She's quite attractive so maybe gets 'special attention' from the local shop-owners and no queinng!

Lauren's jimjams are nice I've noticed!

Well there are only 6 million of us, so probably only 3 million females, so the chances are you do know my Lauren - silly billy!

Chances of being prosecuted? Dunno! It would be a funny trial tho
