 Topic: Embarrasing Situation

Thought this might make somebodys day..
was at the supermarket yesterday and saw that Clearblue twin pack pregnancy tests were on special for $5.66 (I know, so cheap!), so even though I am not going to test for another week thought I should get it.
When the check out girl put it through it went through at full price so I asked if she could check the price. So she put the preg test in the air and yelled out to the supervisor ' Price check on Clearblue Pregnancy Test!'!
Everyone heard and there was a line behind me, and an old lady came up and said 'What are you hoping for dear? A positive result, or have you had an accident'!!
I know. Cringe.

That reminds me of nothing that happen to me. Last year I went to borders and got a pregnancy book just because it looked good. Went to the check out. And the guy said are you expecting. I said no just want to read it lol
Sorry about hijacking the thread

Hila, that is awesome. Sounds like something straight out of a movie. I think we all have embarrassing stories when TTC. I started buying stuff off trademe way before I fell PG. I sent DH to pick up a Moses basket and the woman asked how far along I was. DH lied and said 20 weeks! Then I had another woman who I bought clothes off ask me how old my little one was via email. She wanted to send me another top. When I replied we were still trying, I got no response.

I said 'Oh no, its not for me, its for a friend!!'
I just couldn't be bothered going into it with her.
Melnel - it was Woolworths - but might just be my local cos it was a clearance special rather than a one card special.

LOL, I would be so embarassed! It is pretty funny how buying an HPT seems 'naughty' though . I've had a checkout girl wish me 'goodluck' when I've bought one before, and that was bad enough!

Thanks for the heads up Hila, if I need to get a HPT I'll try New World out here instead (just in case). Can't believe that happened to you, so embarrassing!!!
