No virus included. Drink Corona. |
The hype in general has been building gradually over the last couple of weeks - we sold out of toilet roll temporarily in early March for a week, although people have mostly stopped panic buying. For now. Anyway, it's weirdly becoming less theoretical and more real. I am fairly philosophical in that I am very likely to get it eventually, so I haven't really worried too much before now, but even so I am using hand gel after "some" customers. I know it exposes my prejudices but some of them are absolutely filthy and clearly have something not right, based on the state of their hands 😟 And some are clearly ill, and don't seem to see any issue with coughing into their hands then handing cash to me 😟 Then you get the customers who hand me soap and start asking if it's soap, as if they don't quite know what soap is... did we need a pandemic for people to learn about washing hands?
If I didn't have to earn the money, I'd only be visiting a supermarket once a week. Sadly most customers do not seem to care about limiting their visits.
I do have two weeks' worth of most of the things I need, but I'm going to cave in and buy some long life milk.
The card game arrived and son & I played a round to make sure we remembered all the rules. Only it seems like the rules have changed. We quickly realised that a couple of the changes make the game virtually unplayable with two people - so we have adopted a blend of old & new rules as our house rules and the second game went smoothly. We'll take it with us to board game night this week :)
Good: two brand new cash-for-receipts programmes and two new cashback programs for groceries, which include prize draws. Check them out if you're in the UK. I got cashback on one item today already and that makes it free. Not a bad price!
Free: more cake, pasta sauce, fruit, bread, crisps (£2.98)
