Lesson from the supermarket:
always take a basket. Even if you think you only need a couple of things, you always need a basket.

I call them "bastards"
and have got my mrs subconciously doing it too.

on walking into the supermarket she will now loudly say "shall I grab a bastard?"

I feel justified in typing
LOL, even though I hate that phrase, because I just did. "Oh, they've run out of bastards - oh, no, there are some by the tills..."

Similarly
never go shopping when hungry/thirsty. You buy twice as much.

every bloody time
Every bloody time I go in for a few things and end up with armfuls looking like a twat trying to balance the bargain beer and impulse buys then having to carry it all home and usually having forgotten the things I went in for in the first place. I'm a damn magpie, always distracted by shiny shiny!
