buds, I don't think real super aunties shop at Cold Storage... at least according to my character analysis of Mrs CKS. Fairprice and Sheng Shiong would be their favourite haunts.

I shop at Cold Storage & FairPrice. CS' transparent plastic bags are thicker and more durable (so I usually take more) while FP's are thinner. CS' grocery bags are really thin though so I usually ask the cashiers to pack double or...pack my groceries in many separate bags :oops:

And one more Aunty confession of mine. I always take my time to choose items and pick the ones which expire the latest, even though I may have to dig around right to the back. Any of you do this too??

Initially, I was a shy Super Aunty. Always making sure no one is around before I indulge in my Aunty habits. But with practice, I'm a lot more thick-skinned now, ha!

I think I no longer feel the thickness. These days it just feels so natural. :rotflmao:

So, wait... :idea: ... one question.


So, if the supermarket and/or market sellers addressed me as mei nu then I don't qualify to be in Super Auntie Club?

Depends on how well you have maintained or preserved yourself. If you doubt their sincerity or think they are being sarcastic, then you can join the club. :rotflmao:

Me three. Eh, I have a reason for this. I like to hoard food, and very so often I have to junk some because of the expiry date. Not good to throw out food ok, they add to the carbon footprint! So choose the ones that have longer expiry dates. :rotflmao:

Me 4! For the same reasons as big sister Mawar.

This is called smart shopper, not super auntie I do it all the time, digging into the shelf to get the freshest milk packet. When I buy books, I always pick the third or fourth in the line.

Me 5..

But after you have taken the items from the deeper end of the shelves, do check their expiry dates again hor.. The packers seem to have become smarter these days..

Once I witnessed a packer (auntie) telling another packer (young guy) to display the fresher items with further expiry dates at the outer part of the shelves, and place the older items with nearer expiry dates at the deeper end of the shelves.. So, getting items from the deepest end of the shelves may not guarantee that you have got the freshest items.. These 'aunty packers' can read the minds of 'aunty shoppers'.. :scared:

I am the opposite! I bring recycling Bags with me all the time, so that I don't use plastic bags! Not so much of being environmental friendly, rather we don't use that many plastic bags at home.
...

Then how you throw rubbish? You actually buy thrash bags ?

Yes, thrash things out first before you thrash :spank: her. :rotflmao:

Eh, mebbe she throw rubbish right into the bins. Without plastic! :nailbite:[/quote]Oh pls la! :slapshead:

I look forward to read the supermarket adverts on straits times every Thursday so that I can start planning my grocery list
