I didn't work in retail long, but I had several cases of people doing things like this - turns out most of them owned their own stores and decided it was cheaper to buy the products from the store I was working at than to get it from a wholesaler. There was one store owner who bought 24 bottles of motor oil from us every week, and told me he sold it at twice the price he bought it for.

My theory for the bananas is banana splits. You'd get the ice cream and toppings directly from the distributor, possibly far in advance, but you'd need to purchase the bananas no more than two days prior. Nutella and banana people are getting together for a gigantic party, and I want to go too.

This will be a common sight in the UK soon. Brexit is coming. Panic buying will ensue. The smart ones will buy tons of toilet paper instead of bananas.

a few days ago i saw my first math problem perseon xD... bought about five kilos of bananas

Bit like if there's the threat of snow in the UK. There will be no bread or milk at all left in the supermarkets. It's like everyone's having massive toast and tea parties.

Why is food this cheap?

These made me LOL

My Lord!

Hey- I taught maths for 36 years and NEVER saw a problem in any text book that even comes close to these ridiculous situations!

I was asked to do some shopping for an elderly relative once. On the list was 100 rolls. I thought she meant bread rolls, so I got them. She meant loo rolls, as in toilet paper. Anyone can make a mistake.

God. If you must take covert photos of people to plaster on social media would you at least have the decency to hide their faces?
