What is your most embarrassing shopping experience?

Karen Wattie
Many years ago, when my youngest son was just a toddler, my hubby let him out of the seat in the shopping cart. He ran ahead of us and around the corner. In those couple of seconds while he was out of sight, he managed to climb into a bin of marshmallows!


Harry Canary
Forgetting half my groceries at Walmart in Brandon. Taking my receipt in and they refused to tell me what I had bought on the receipt. Why I will never know.


Veronica Gorin Walters
I'm a mom of 3 boys... where do I begin? Walking down the aisle of a crowded Walmart, throw a pkg of sanitary pads in the cart only to have my 7yo ask loudly if that was for when I bleed... took teenage son shopping for a new suit. Sales lady said my bf looked good in grey. Took my son's BFF shopping because he needed a shirt and tie, salesperson kept calling me his wife... my sons now loudly call me mom or mommy everywhere we go so no one confuses the relationship.

It was my first time shopping in Canada. While the price tag said $2, which I paid, the cashier asked for 25 cents on top. I thought she was trying to dupe me! But no...it was the tax on top, which is not displayed on the price tag.

Mine is when mum used to take me shopping and she made me try on heels/sandles with my toes painted bright red

The most embarrassing story was when me and my wife were shopping at Tommy Hilfiger store in Ottawa. I was trying on some new clothing items and my wife took off to browse other aisles. When I got out of the fitting room a guy working at the shop told me: 'If you're looking for your mom, she's in the women's section.' I know I look young, but I never expected the guy to assume that my wife is my mom. We still recall this day with my wife as the most weird experience we had at this shop.


Angela Wilson
I don’t know if this was the most embarrassing, or the funniest shopping experience.But I was out with my oldest daughter now 22 who was about 3 at the time and we’re in the grocery store ram packed ppl everywhere.We go down the aisle of personal hygiene and my daughter yells out. “Mommy, there’s Nana’s diapers” pointing at the women’s pads on the shelf. I turned beat red and put my head down everyone around me busted out laughing

Catherine Robichaud
My most embarrassing experience was after loading up my cart with a weeks worth of groceries, I get to the register only to realize I had forgot my credit card at home and I had no money in my wallet, Of course this was after the clerk had scanned all my groceries!
