Picking up in Safeways

[gremlin 0]

Was reading that in one (large) town the local Safways supermarket was the centre of the dating scene.

Was just wondering, if you were trying to pick up a girl where shoudl you position yourself in the supermarket?

Picking up diapers is obviously out.
The condom area screams of desparation and the firearms bit would make them think you could be a stalker.

So what should you be picking up in order to pick up?

Produce . . . bananas, cherries, tomatoes, cantelopes, melons, cocoa nuts, tossed salad . . . I think you get the idea.

So you reckon that if I stand there suggestively holding a banana the chicks are going to flock over to me???

Well, no . . . but I think you'd have a better chance than in some other departments.

Meat section = too obvious
Bakery = too many carbs
Dairy = the MILF section? Maybe, but probably not.
Hardware = women that take care of their own needs
Frozen food section = frigid women

Seriously, I think the produce section is the way to go.

It's where the people are most likely gong to be handling the "goods". Picking them up and feeling for firmness, Smelling them for freshness.

It's a natural.

have some strawberries in your cart and ask her what type of chocolate you should buy to dip them in...

I like that idea.

What about looking at scented candles - in touch with my feminine side or toooo in touch??

the scented candles could go either way... it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.

To pick up a gal in the supermarket, be the grocery bagger. I know, sounds weird, but worked for me when I worked at a supermarket.

Anyhow, I'd figure that the followign would be good places:

1) Dairy - become an expert on cheeses. There are lots of awesome cheeses. Invite one to your pad to sample some cheeses sometime.

2) Liquor department - you can tell a lot by what a woman drinks. Is she getting some decent wine? Well, here's someone either sophisticated, or likes to think it. Is she getting beer? Heck ofa gal to hang with, maybe shoot some pool. Hard liquor? Right on. You can party with her. Wine coolers? Too young....

just PRETEND you work there, as security or something. then make up some elaborate story about how the whole place almost burned down due to some chemical spraying to rid the fresh fruit section of roaches and that it could be unsafe to still be in there... just watching out for others' safety, of course. and continue on your way.

ok, maybe that won't work.

Safeway??
Just got home from shopping there and sure wouldn't have minded help lifting my water jugs full of water into my buggy
My son is moving out (20 and single) and decorating his bedroom at his new place. He asked me to go to Fanny's (sewing shop) to get some material and thread needed so I can sew new dovet cover & matching pillow covers. I told him to go and pick up what color he wanted---(he was embarrassed at first to go shop there)

Anyhow, he is so excited now as met several young ladies -and has a date with the sweety that cut his material and helped him out picking thread...
awe...

That reminds me of the scene from Grumpier Old Men where Grandpa is hitting on Maria's mother in the produce section.

one of the supermarkets in new zealand wellington is well known as a place for students to pick up on a tuesday night. There are all sorts of signs as well that mainly involve being around fresh produce such as how you hold the bannanasnanans.

Funny you say that. When I lived in Cincinnati I lived in the Hyde Park neighborhood. The neighborhood is primarily all young professionals that all work for Procter & Gamble.

It was a well known fact that "The Hyde Park Kroger" was one of the hottest singles spots in town. A few great bars in the area, but it's the Kroger that took the cake.

Killing threads since 2004.

When I lived In NY (in a small town near Buffalo-) There was a laundrymat/bar/grill. Great idea, it was a MAJOR hook-up spot!

How long do you reckon you can hang around the grocery section of a supermarket before the staff try to throw you out. I am normally only there long enough to grab what I need before getting out.

That was 10 years ago. Now you can find me in the booze section. Just remember drinking leads to having kids which leads to more drinking, which leads to...... never mind.

The last wife wondered why I always wanted to do the shopping alone

I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.
