I've been to the little Tesco this morning. My Mum gave me her shopping list, club card, TV magazine voucher and £30. She said she didn't know why she was giving me £30 because she thought £20 would be enough, but she gave me the £30 anyway. When I went out it was a bit cloudy, but not raining. I wore my big grey coat without the hood.
My Mum wanted honey roast peanuts, and I said they were usually on the corner just before you turn to go to the till, so I told her to put it at the bottom of the list, but she said you also go passed there to get to the TV magazines, so she put them at the top of the list! When I went into the shop there they were at the end of the isle I first go down, so I did get them first after all!
So then I went further down that isle and got the TV magazines. Then I went round the corner and got 2 chocolate croissants for my Mum and Syd, and then I got a snickers for Syd aswell. My Mum told me to get some soft sweets like liquorice allsorts or marshmallows, but Syd had liquorice allsorts last week, so I got some marshmallows. I was going to get the Haribo brand, but then I saw that Tesco's own brand was 30p cheaper, so I got those.
Then I got some bananas and 2 lots of strawberries, and then I got a box of Alpen cereal with no added sugar for me. Lastly I got 2 bottles of milk and then I went to pay.
It was a good job my Mum had given me the £30 because it came to £20 and some pennies! So I got a £5 note as change, with 4 £1 coins and a few other coins!
When I was coming home from the shop the sun came out and started to shine on me!
When I got home I told my Mum it was a good job she'd given me the £30, then I gave her her change, club card, TV magazine voucher and shopping list. Then I unpacked the groceries and put them away. Before I came on here to tell you about it, I had a look at one of the TV magazines.
So now I'm watching Homes Under the Hammer again.
What are you lot getting up to today?
I hope you are all well.
Have a nice day.

@rakski It's a bit like that here today too. I haven't checked my weather app yet though. We are going to the big Tesco again this afternoon.

It was OK here when I went to the shop this morning, but now it's gone all dull and cloudy again!
I'm glad you managed to go to the community market to buy meats.

@sharonelton The Sun is shining here so the neighbours are out with their whining lawnmower - again.

I'm glad the sun is shining there - but I'm sorry your neighbours are out with their whining lawnmower again! Have you thought about getting double glazing?

Yes, I try to write my shopping list in the order that we'll get to them. My Mum doesn't always get them in the right order!
