Scotmid-What's it like?

by **Mimpty** » 29 Apr 2005, 13:33

I've had my bags packed for me twice now, and the store wasn't busy either time.

Scotmid is amazing. It's like global capitalism just never happened. I love how it's stocks a bizarre combo of naff/cheap food and organic/fair trade stuff. Their organic cotton bog roll is the best! I only noticed recently that they stock kitchen utensils and tellys. Seriously, you could just live there.

God, you're not kidding... I nipped over for some crisps and the gazebo is massive.

I was rather taken by the display featuring a garden table with umbrella though. Placing 5 bumper tubs of marshmallows on the table set it off really nicely.

There were two slightly posh women looking lost and moaning about the vegetable layout and I just thought to myself... "this place is wasted on you! Go back to Sainsbury's - this discounted-cake paradise is for Scotmid People!"

well i got another customer 'complaint' on monday night, actually more of a "that wee lassie fokkin shwore at me likesh thatsh no fokkin right likesh" then proceeded in walking into a rather prominent stack of cola cans , followed by some random squealing on about FOKKIN HELF 'N SHAFETEH MAN FOKKIN 'ELL LIKESH

anyway the complaint: this twit maybe early 20's, looking very un-sober i might add) asked for cigaretes at the normal checkout. the fag counter was busy but i wasnt, so i went and got them. then i get 'woh man ah furgoat a ligh-ur' so again i went back over. 3rd time was just takin the p i s s tho "aw gonnae git meh sum ay they shiggureette papursh an-aw" by now im really getting p i s s e d off - it wasnt till the wee shite turned to his friend and sniggered (snorted?) while pointing and laughing i thought nooooo thank ya so he was simply told to "take your ass over to the fag counter and get them yourself, the queue is going down"
simple?
no!
"FOKKIN EH??? YEH CANNY SHPEEK TAE ME LIKE THAT LIKESH FOKKIN....FOKKIN...WHARESH YUR MANAGUR??!?!!!"
then he stormed off presumably to find a manager leaving innocent bystanders rather scared.
i mean..what the HELL?!?!?!
ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, Scotmid have outdone themselves this time. WTF is that plastic tent/marquee/bus shelter thing that is now located between the fresh vegetable and 2 for 1 really bad for you sections?

Ive tried looking for a price but can only see "Wooden Table" Ã‚Â£39.99. What is the purpose of this monstrosity, aoart from maybe p issing off the Jones' who surely can't have anything similar.

This thread had me laughing out loud and relaying everyone's comments to my fellow workers who had'nt a clue what I was on about.They really dont know how to live down here :cry:

I go into scotmid when I visit and last time commented on the stock they were starting to sell,but it seems that more has arrived since my last visit. Where else can possibly have a store as unique as Scotmid
