... 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??...

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:

Other than the plastic bag thing, I do all these way before I got married. I must be suffering from premature aunty syndrome :rotflmao:

I used to hv this habit of going to supermarket 3-5 times per week. Becos some things are cheaper here and something's are cheaper there. It became like family outing. My hubby would push the trolley, with my then infant son in it. They would go on a learning trip and I always hear my hubby saying,\"this is watermelon!\"

This buying from where is cheap, I find, is also very aunty. Long time ago, I just buy from wherever is convenient.

I think I'm the opposite. Last time I will compare price before buying. Now I just buy almost everything from the big NTUC and urgent food stuff from the small Sheng Siong (incomplete stock) near my block. No more checking price.
