They are going to be available in some Supermarkets,
Good Idea or not ?

I didn't see any in M&S Food today

Patsy70 Tue 06-Nov-18 22:59:49

Better get yourself down to the supermarket, Jalima grin

Patsy grin

I still play the Beach Boys in the car sometimes when I'm on my own

Patsy70 Tue 06-Nov-18 22:55:23

'Good Vibrations' - wasn't that the Beachboys, Brigeit? Such a funny thread -brings back some really happy memories! wink.

SueDonim, the water flossers (flossies?) were probably concerned about your oral hygiene after hearing about the wild adventures of your electric toothbrush and the potholes.

Well I bet they never thought they would cause so much mirth among the nation's Grannies!

Artyfartygaga Tue 06-Nov-18 20:33:29

Maybe the supermarkets are picking up on something.... ‘ make shopping more of a pleasure, not just a routine...’

SueDonim Tue 06-Nov-18 20:32:58

I'm getting adverts for water flossers. The latest one has a review that says 'I wish I had found this years ago and can't wait to see what my hygienist says!' grin

Yes, *orly's husband has been very poorly, but luckily he's 'picking up' now. grin

orly Tue 06-Nov-18 20:16:19

Be careful not to get the cordless vacuum mixed up with the vibrating vagina like my husband did. Boy, how we all laughed down at the A&E

NfkDumpling Tue 06-Nov-18 19:50:30

I’ve got ‘how to remove eye bags”!

I don’t think its the vacuum’s cordlessness thats important. More the length of it’s tube.

grannyticktock Tue 06-Nov-18 19:44:47

Why has this page on my tablet got an advert for Cordless Vacuums? Is there something about cordless vacuums I didn't know?

Terri823 Tue 06-Nov-18 19:26:40

Haven’t laughed so much in ages. Fairly new to gransnet but you lot definitely have my sense of humour.

Jalima1108 Tue 06-Nov-18 17:59:30

Conni7 you may soon have the chance to find out grin

Tweedle24 Tue 06-Nov-18 17:39:17

Brilliant post. Have not laughed so much in a long time.

Conni7 Tue 06-Nov-18 17:06:05

Thank you for all the laughs. I still don't know what they look like. How can I get one?!!

marionk Tue 06-Nov-18 17:03:33

I was thinking of the fruit and veg aisle! Slide it onto the conveyor belt somewhere between the bananas, carrots and the cucumber ??

Blacktabby2 Tue 06-Nov-18 16:54:39

This is so funny. Has cheered me up so much as getting over the recent loss of my mother. Thank you everyone!!?

Bridgeit Tue 06-Nov-18 16:18:28

Glad you are all enjoying the thread ladies, a very apt tune has just popped into my head -I’m thinking of good vibrations by the BeeGees accompanied by a recommended speed limit?

Artyfartygaga Tue 06-Nov-18 16:04:31

Years ago when dd1 had recently turned 18, she and I were in a popular supermarket, when she went off to look at something or other. I took the opportunity to slink into the chemist aisle to look at vibrating c##k rings. Before I knew it she was stood behind me saying- nah, you don’t want one of those mum; they only last three minutes ! !! The shame ?swiftly followed by hilarity of course ? that was over ten years ago, I guess Supermarkets have moved on a little bit!

grandtanteJE65 Tue 06-Nov-18 15:24:12

My DH did take a vibrator back to a shop in Holland because it didn't work at all. No embarrassment, only apologies for the item not having come up to expectations, and the offer of a free replacement.

And if Happy Shopper don't sell them they really should with that name! Sorry, said she with a big grin on her face.

SueDonim Tue 06-Nov-18 15:23:41

Wait, what, Cari, my electric toothbrush doesn’t count?

I guess I may as well put it back in the bathroom, then.

farview Tue 06-Nov-18 15:20:19

But what if they have security tags on.....so even at self service checkout a member of staff would be needed!!
Thanks for this thread have had such a good laugh ??

Blue45Sapphire Tue 06-Nov-18 15:17:58

The electric toothbrush reminds me of the time DH and I were returning from a holiday in Guernsey. Had checked in our luggage at the airport and were happily partaking of (alcoholic) refreshment, when there was a call over the tannoy. "Would Mr BlueSapphire please return to check-in?" Apparently there was a strange noise coming from his case - turned out to be his electric shaver which had somehow switched itself on!
