Why is it your brain will tell you’ve forgotten something, but won’t tell you what the thing is till you’ve got home and then it says ‘Here it is, here’s the thing you forgot!’ Yeah, thanks brain you massive twat. |

From the land of haribos. |
"I always forget something...and it's usually the thing I most wanted to remember  But if I make a list I usually forget to take it, so I'm doomed either way "
Same here, it is always the things you want as well, like sometimes I forget to get the haribos as well  |

God no, I'm usually stood in the middle of the shop starring into space trying to remember what I came for, almost always leave with the one thing I really needed. |

"Hahah no! I always tend to forget the key things I promised myself to get…  "
And come back home with the most random bits…
Baba Ganoush
stuffed vine leaves
Guava juice
That spicy Japanese Mayo I didn’t need … and so on…..

I can't go to the shops without a list even if it's just for a few things. I have a terrible memory.
I use a dedicated recipe/shopping list app. I don't always refer to it as the act of making a note of it seems to help me remember. |

I’m absolutely horrific at remembering what I need to buy, so usually just wing it, get home and then go oops, looks like we’re eating cake for the next week! Whereas Mr PC is far more organised! Miss PC |

Depends. If I go alone and I’m not in a rush I can.
But, if I take my youngest with me it’s like he’s a contestant on Supermarket Sweep and I’m legging it round the store trying to contain him and his enthusiasm for everything on the shelves. The list is loooong forgotten by then  |

"I literally just walk up and down every Isle and think " yeah I'll have that " .
Never let me down yet  "
If you walked up and down every aisle in our local Asda on a Saturday, you'd be in there for a good 6 hours  |

No if we go to a supermarket our shopping will cost at least £50 more than if we do it online. Obviously we now shop online and have done for many many years now but I forget what I want to order walking from the kitchen to the laptop. |

Yes thank you, I take it with me!
When they change the aisles around because they want to change their impulse buying products. That pisses me off cos the shopping takes longer. Bastards. |

Yep. I can do a whole weekly shop all from memory. Very rarely do I ever forget anything. I'm 'lucky' if that's the word as I have a photographic memory. I don't have a diary even. If I make, say, a dentist's appointment in 12 weeks then I'll remember and turn up on time.
I also only ever watch films or TV series the once. Don't need a 2nd viewing as I remember it.
Any flaws in this? Oh yes! I have one... I can't remember birthdays and have even forgotten my own some years bizarrely! |

I write a list and cross put once items in trolley etc. Reason doing this. Once went to supermarket. Only needed a few items. Put a couple etc in trolley . Then spoke with someone who I worked with. I was stood next to next item i wanted. Finished conversation . Carried on and when arrived home realised forgotten milk . This was most important item I wanted milk forgotten |

My memory is very good most of this spans from being a mechanic remembering where to put everything back each nut or bolt,wires, screws and resemble just by looking my brain is programmable and doesn't require a memory card |

I hate shopping lists.
I can still come out of the supermarket fully laden, thinking I've done good and when I get home my Mrs will point out immediately that I've missed something....
I should take my glasses along to be able to read the list next time! |

Forgotten a shopping item? So many times it hurts.
I’ve even forgotten to take a hand written list - Plenty of times!
It got so bad that one time I was driving along the M4 and suddenly relapsed is forgotten the car 
I shop online now and have it delivered to my doorstep by all manner of strange looking delivery people. They’re usually very talkative and every week I dress up in disguise, to keep them on their toes. .
I don’t know why anyone would do anything else

Evidently I even forget how to type sometimes…. 
“Relapsed is” = “realised I’d” |
