Mother’s Day card swapped for sliced loaf

Conversation Pieces — Tue, 27 May 2008 18:08:50 +0000

How much do you love your mother? Is she the best thing since sliced bread? Can she compete with a Hovis invisible crust white loaf? Apparently not for this supermarket swapper.

A big thank you to Yonmei for spotting this swap!

Dairylea lunchables swapped for garlic baguettes

Ahh, lunchables – the cornerstone of any kid’s nutritious lunch. Something that wouldn’t galvanise your small peers into tormenting you ruthlessly until you leave school… Shame then, that little Stevie will be going to school on Tuesday (we’ll give him Easter Monday off) with a bit of garlic baguette. Forever to be known as Stinky Steve… Aren’t kids cruel?

Cheese crisps swapped for Toblerone chocolate

A few age-old supermarket debates. Savoury or sweet? Romantic chocolates or pungento crisps? Toblerone or anything else?

Ok, that last one is never a debate. God knows why but Toblerone always seems to beat anything else in the swapping stakes. Maybe it’s the triangular shape, but it’s certainly nothing to do with the taste if you ask us.

Fruit pastles swapped for a teapot

You know an £8 teapot is a good deal when you’re forced to put back that 40p packet of fruit pastles to get it. Either that or you’re just a bit (tea)potty. *Groan*

Sharon Osbourne swapped for Magners cider

Conversation Pieces — Mon, 14 Jan 2008 21:40:45 +0000

Proof, if ever proof was need, that Sharon Osbourne’s literary efforts need more than a six pack of cider to be deemed enjoyable. Never fear Shakespeare, thou hast not met thy match in this wench.

Strawberries swapped for firelighters

Somebody somewhere was planning a sophisticated evening with strawberries and maybe a little champagne… Then they wandered over to the household aisle and their arsonist tendencies took over.

Thanks to Kirsten for this swap spot.

Laughing Cow cheese swapped for sugar

Conversation Pieces — Tue, 06 Nov 2007 19:35:46 +0000

Is it just us or is the Laughing Cow really creepy? Just us? Well, this little swap proves otherwise. Someone’s tried to buy some Laughing Cow cheese but… was so weirded out by a red, smug cow wearing cheese as earrings that they had to ditch it… and buy a whole bag of sugar instead. Why sugar? Well, everyone knows that a spoon full of sugar makes everything better – so just imagine what a whole bag can do.

Slim-a-Soup swapped for Flying Saucers

A ‘sod the diet, I want to eat a whole bucket of sweets’ swap.

Blonde hairdye for booze

No-one notices your roots when you’re puking out of your nose.
