Sizing. Why it's never standard. A size 14 should be the same everywhere. And don't get me started on jeans. Why on earth you can never get a right fit is beyond me. No 2 pairs are ever the same. |

People
the shops constant need to move shit around so have to spend an hour looking the first time then weeks remembering the new location till they change the cunt again
Ignorant twats who stand at the end of the conveyer despite 6 foot of space there now for you put your food on and have to tell them to shift. |

Clothes shopping ? The fact that nothing fits me, going to start shopping in camping shops , I thinking a tent may fit.
Food shopping? The fact that everything I like is unhealthy. |

The entire experience is terrible. You can’t get everything in one shop, not all shops have online services for stock checking or click and collect. Let me order before hand, and spend less than 10 minutes at your store collecting it, so I can get on with my day!  |

Fact. Really hard. Everything has to ordered and call back then Tailored to fit. Even dressy shoes I went up 1 size when they changed manufacturers to Asia.  |

The people walking in front of you…at a snails pace… to then just stop dead right infront of you, which then forces a contortionist like movement to prevent a collision and near death! |

People!! I am hearing impaired, not totally deaf mind but limited, and deaf to certain levels, so I get jostled a lot by ignorant arseholes that murmur ( I am guessing) excuse me but I can't hear them, so they get impatient and I get shoved and nudged.. Thing is blind people have a white stick, deaf people have grief! |

"Not a lot in my local Aldi as she puts 30% discounted item’s through as 70%
Even last night she scanned two packets of finger rolls but didn’t scan the hot dogs
I think she fancy’s me"
She might also be trying to get you arrested and banned from the store  |

Ha ha my late wife used to be terrible for jeans, she was very fussy. Also she used to complain bitterly about the fact a decent pair of jeans £40 to £50 say but denim shorts £60 to infinity, she used say the less you get the more you pay! |

People and especially the ones that blasé like nothing happened, but the item they picked up dropped on the floor and walked away from it
I mean you haven’t bought the thing. you’re taking the piss |

We both really hated grocery shopping at the weekend, we were earlier adopters of the supermarkets delivery schemes and now very very rarely get foot in a supermarket. Best thing we ever did, it was saving us anywhere between £20 & £50 per shop as we no longer impulse buy.

Not a pet hate but I enjoy standing in a queue with like two items and seeing cunts with full trolleys making a run for it when till number 3 comes alive. I stay and pity but hope they see my two items and gib it x |

Jeans are my nemesis, try them on and they are borerline cutting off the blood circulation to your feet, within 25 mins of wearing them it looks like you are have a full diaper on and the bastards are shapeless and baggy…. Why can’t they just fit nicely initially and stay like that rather than stretching or relaxing or whatever the right term is. |

"Everything. I hate shopping. It's the worst thing in the world. I'd rather shovel shit all day.
F"
Basically this. If I go looking for something particular, it can never, ever be found. If I am not looking for anything, I see things I like. And don't get me started on wheelchair accessible changing rooms in clothes shops (or lack thereof  ) |

"Kids treating the place as a playground and "parents" letting them"
I played Supermarket Sweep with my kids in big supermarkets.
I'd give them 3 staples to get each and tell them where I'm heading.
They loved it and didn't get bored.
Shopping is terribly boring. |

Other shoppers moving so slow or blocking lanes with their trollies.
People that leave the fridge/freezer doors open because they forgot that glass was see-through.
The loud music. |

Bag botherers who think it's OK to bombard you with their shopping
Just people
People not having their card or cash ready at the till… why??

This, sizing is so inconsistent, in so many shops. Otherwise, I love shopping, though usually just do it online, better deals and no people.

"I really don't like how shops don't respect my identifiers. I identify as about a size 10, but shops seem to insist I'm at least a 14. It's just rude.  "
I honestly think sizing is just randomly allocated into clothes. |

I really dislike shopping in person. It’s the shopkeepers asking if you need help, other shoppers, having to look through things. It’s so much easier online. |

This, nothing worse than browsing in a shop and staff keep asking do you need help, if I need help I’ll ask for it grrr |

People who steer their trolleys with their elbows. Bloody well stand up and push it properly - you'll be able to steer much better and not crash into other people.
Oh and having to wait forever for an assistant to age check you at a self service till for alcohol. Defeats the object of getting in and out quickly entirely. |

This too I'm one size in kne shop and bigger/ smaller in another the problem is that just make sizes not to fit the shape of the body if they did we would all be able to get proper fitting clothes |

"Not much as I shop early Saturday mornings. No traffic and hardly any queues. I suppose if I miss an item that was on the list can be annoying!"
Ah yes, the “did you get the bread” / “Ah fuck” moment.
The peak level of annoyance for this is when you go out to buy one item, buy 10 others and still forget the one item you really needed. |
