Tesco have started to produce and sell diapers for older children and teens.

Something people don't think about, but there's a huge gap in sizes between baby/toddler diapers, and adult inconvenience wear (such as tena) available in the supermarket. Most of you won't know, but there's a "disability premium" on many specialist products. If you have to order from a specialist supplier, it's going to be several times more expensive. These are being sold at a reasonable price.

A lot of parents and kids are going to have a much easier life because of this product.

This is a good thing which I applaud.


I suppose you shop at Waitrose or Marks & Spencer?! :rolleyes:

Years ago, when I lived in Buckingham, Waitrose was the only supermarket. I seriously miss Waitrose! Tesco has so many peasants...
 
Do you still call them greengrocers?

Greengrocers sell green shit. A fruit and veg shop, basically. Grocery shops, or general stores, are now supermarkets... if they're big enough. They're corner shops if they're small.
 
I could listen to that lady say "nappies" all day. nappies.

Size. Six. Nappies.

Truth? I get groceries delivered anymore. I've hardly set foot into a grocery of any kind in years. Though I did have to go during the early days of the pandemic since delivery was effectively halted. It was a surreal trip, like walking though a post-apocalyptic landscape. Everyone moving quickly and nervously while making hardly a sound save the rustling of goods. The raw, undiluted, soundtrack of paranoid commerce. No ABBA. No cleanup on aisle 6.
I went down the frozen aisle to get some chicken breasts....and I grabbed a bag and it... just gave way. The breasts all skittered across the tiles like odd white hockey pucks, tinkling and tangling for like a fucking mile over to the kitchenwares. This old lady turned and gave me the how dare you stink-eye like I was ...what? Throwing some impromptu chicken tantrum as protest? I fired a poptart at her throat like a ninja star, shut her shit down w/quickness. By the time she realized it, I was all the way over in produce.

Anyway, I didn't see any nappies that day. I imagine all these toilet paper-hoarding types had to have a fallback plan.
 
Good stuff - those specialist suppliers have been taking the piss for too long
