I wanted to please my husband for a holiday with delicious fried shrimp. But I had to replace them with salmon steaks. I will share my strange purchase story. Or, not, rather, a history of "failed purchase".
Maybe I just rarely buy shrimp... But I see this for the first time! Or I was just "lucky"...
We here, in a nearby supermarket, have made a discount on king prawns for the holiday. The price tag for the action is 499 rubles per kilogram (the same shrimps were sold yesterday at 699 rubles / kg).
"Why not take advantage of the discount?" - I thought, took the bag and began to put shrimps into it with a special scoop.
Already I was about to tie the bag and carry it to the scales, but I noticed something that did not look very much like a shrimp.
I looked closely. Nothing special. Apparently, a piece of crab sticks from the next compartment got to the shrimp by accident. But I'm not very ready to pay 500 rubles for crab sticks, therefore, I decided to get the "foreign goods" from the package.
Just in case, I decided to take a closer look at the contents of the package - if there are still crab sticks there. She opened the package, put it on the counter, looked closely ...
In general, here is:
King prawn heads for the price of king prawns!
I don't know what to do in such cases. Perhaps someone would have called the administrator. Someone else, perhaps, would have simply removed the "extra" heads from the package.
But I decided to postpone buying shrimp until next time and went to the fish department for salmon steaks.
I didn't want shrimp.
I wonder if I am so "happy", or did any of you come across similar "surprises"?
Then I even thought: "Maybe a piece of crab stick got into the compartment with shrimps not by chance?"
But who could rip off the tails of frozen shrimp? And How? For some reason, I do not believe that any of the buyers did it. There are cameras everywhere. I think they would have paid attention if someone had been poking around in an expensive product for a long time.
Now I will probably take a closer look at the shrimp. Or I will take them in their original packaging. In general, you can't figure it out on purpose! Write what would you do in this situation?
