Jacki and Tim went shopping on Saturday. To their local Tesco's. Now just going to Tesco's is a strange experience anyway. It is a bit like stepping into another world. Because it is just about the cheapest of the supermarkets, thanks mainly to the poor quality of the food and service, it attracts the poorest people. And all the local nutters. In fact if your local store happens to be next to one of the worse housing estates in the area, like theirs is, you get to see all sorts of low life as you shop.
But I digress. For a change!
Anyway, off they go round to Tesco's and as they walk in Tim spots some cheap Stella, twelve cans for a tenner! Of course, knowing a bargain when he sees one he picks a box up and puts it in the trolley.
"You get that out of there!" Jacki snaps, still feeling the effects of the previous nights two bottles of red wine and a bottle of Cava. "We can't afford it!"
So reluctantly Tim takes the beer out of the trolley and they carry on.
As they are walking round Jacki spots some face cream, twenty quid a jar, and picks one up and puts it in the trolley.
"What do you think you are doing lass" he asks her in his dodgy midlands accent. "We can't afford that!"
"But it will make me look beautiful for you" she explains.
"So will twelve cans of Stella" he tells her. "And they are half the price"
