Supermarkets have finally pushed us over the edge

Supermarkets have finally pushed us over the edge.This week we're overthinking the weekly food shop: self-checkouts, receipt-scanning exit gates, increasingly expensive carrier bags and the very serious question of why buying food now feels like an obstacle course where you're also somehow under suspicion.And, because we rarely manage to stick to the actual subject, we also end up discussing:An eight-year-old giving us some brutally honest feedbackEllie's encounter with a particularly well-guarded 60p carrier bagA minor IKEA theft involving an eight-year-oldOur slightly pointless 9am trip to Clarkson's pubGrowing up in an "ingredient household"The childhood snack situation that still feels mildly traumaticAnd the innocent phrase that got Layla into rather a lot of trouble at workSo yes, ostensibly this is an episode about supermarkets.It doesn't entirely stay that way.It can't be just us?👋 Join the conversation: Have supermarkets ruined the shopping experience, or are we just becoming increasingly intolerant?
