16 carrots, 10 parsnips, 55 sprouts - that's very precise! Could only be a list from just before Christmas with that many sprouts!

Dried Mushies - soft drugs on a shopping list?

Party food - I've always wondered what that actually means, hope it's jelly and ice cream (it would be for me!)

Well travelled (could only be a Waitrose shopper).

Wow! what a mess! Even without all the crossing out I'm not sure I could make head or tail of this one.

I'm guessing that the stuff at the top won't give the right vitamins.

Short and to the point.

Bit early for a BBQ? Ready lettuce? surely lettuce is always ready...

All the basics.

I'm told by my friend Liz that when things are grouped in this manner it's because that's the way the supermarket is laid out, veg first, then dairy and always near the end boring things like laundry liquids and washing.

The back of this list had a to-do list, obviously not for the supermarket trip.

Obviously the owner of the list is too posh to grate their own cheese!

This is one of the lists which contains something that I'm sure the author understood, but it's a mystery to me - ASSABEE?

A burning question - did they get the pickled cucumbers? and do they mean gherkins?

This one is very strange, the weights make it seem like a recipe shopping list but a lot of it is unintelligible. The '1' figures make me think this is not from a native English speaker.

Instead of screwing it up it had been neatly folded but the paper appears to have been folded and unfolded again many times.
