What's your most embarrassing moment at a grocery store?

When I was in college I was on the way home from the gym to pick up a couple things...being in a rush I decided to not get a cart...I also didn't have any pockets so I was holding my keys, wallet, cell a the same time. I get 3-4 things and what I thought was my last item...
My hands were sweaty. I pick it up...I start walking to the register and bam it shatters... all over aisle 17. A lady see's me but doesn't make a big deal of it. I go to get help and someone starts mopping the area. I grab another one and go to get something I forgot on the other side of the store.
Literally as soon as I turn the corner to the ice cream aisle the second bottle slips out of my hand and shatters on aisle 2. Who saw me? The same lady.
I put everything down and walked out the store.

I once loaded 90% of my cart of groceries into someone else's truck bed.
In my defense, the truck was the same color and model.

I was 7, so I didn't really care. But it really embarrassed my mom.
We were at Albertsons and there was a rather fat lady in front of us (fat for 1997, probably not today's standards). I heard the register beeping as items were scanned, and thinking back to the forklifts at Sam's Club beeping when they went into reverse, I yelled to my mom "Look out Mama, she's backing up!".

Wife and I stopped in Kroger one Friday night after dinner and drinks. I was walking near the bakery talking to my wife kind of looking behind me not watching where I was going. I walked right into and took out one of the bakery stands with cupcakes, cookies, danishes, etc. I tried to pick it all up, but the icing from the cupcakes was smeared all over the plastic containers, it was a mess

way out of the store, sat down into the passenger seat of my wife's car who was waiting on me. turns out wasnt her care. lady in the driver's seat was much alarmed. Apologized and we both laughed it off. My wife was laughing her arse off as she saw the whole thing unfold.

Wife had a friend who was a very attractive (no pics). As a joke, we tossed a cucumber into her purse. She went to Dillard's. While she's at the cosmetics counter, she opens her purse to get her credit card out. She sees the cucumber, pulls it out and says "what on earth is this?" The cosmetics clerk, a flamboyantly gay guy, gives her a huge smile.

Not embarrassing but me a friend of mine walked around Albertson's with a remote control fart machine. I had the speaker in my back pocket and would get next to people pretending to be looking for something on the shelf and he'd hit the button

We put a cucumber in my friend's seat when she forced us to see 50 Shades of Grey in the theater.

I did this the other day, but fortunately the lady told me my credit card is likely saved in my Apple Pay and I can use that. Lo and behold it was.
Technology, man.

Daughter and her boyfriend went to buy a bag of cherries and she slipped and completely dropped the bag and cherries went rolling everywhere. Her boyfriend froze for a moment then took off running.

Thanks mom.

Yep, I just discovered the LA Wallet app the other day. No need to carry my driver's license around any longer.

On my 21st birthday I went to the Winn Dixie @ Lee and Burbank to buy a case of beer and a half gallon of cheap whiskey. The clerk (I lovingly like to call them dinkers) asked for my ID and looked at it smiled and said happy birthday. Then she started laughing, "Wait you're only 21?" Calls the Manager over to look with her and then they make it a huge deal about how my receding hair line makes me look soooo much older. It wasn't that big of a deal but kinda triggered me. Then she grabs the microphone and proceeds to sing happy birthday into the microphone while laughing and pointing to me. One of the girls I had in class (that I had previously asked out but got shot down) was walking by and stopped and told me happy birthday and the dinker says, "did you know he's ONLY 21?!?! He could pass for 30!!!" Girl says, " no way, you're older than 21 right? I thought you were older and returning to school after the military or something like that."

Ouch. I have the opposite problem. I once sat at a table with my kids waiting for a waiter to bring me a glass of wine and when he got there he asked nervously, “Um….where did your mom go?”

you know I've never even opened that app, Think I will do that now. In every case where I didn't have my wallet, I had my phone.
