Grocery shopping isn’t easy as it seems, especially when grocery lists are included. TikTok user @hzdesignshop learned this the hard way when he recently went to the store to get some things his wife told him to.
The TikToker’s wife gave him a paper note with all the things he needed to get her. It was a pretty straightforward list with common items like chips, water, and sugar. And to @hzdesignshop’s credit, he got all those items, but not in the way he intended.
The list that @hzdesignshop received had each item numbered from one to seven, but he thought the numbers actually indicated the amount. He ended up buying one Velveeta cheese, two tortilla chips bags, three packs of hamburgers, and so on. The TikToker only realized his mistake when he arrived at the cash register, at which point it was too late to do anything about it.
After coming home, @hzdesignshop shared the story with his TikTok followers in what is now a viral clip. The video received 3.7 million views and 17K comments.
The TikToker’s troubles proved quite entertaining for other social media users.
“Of all the ways to fail at a grocery one, this is the best. She still has what she needs and a laugh,” wrote one user.
“At least the salt was the cheapest thing on the list. You may have needed a loan if she had written hamburger last,” another added.
Unfortunately, we don’t know how his wife reacted to this mishap. But we believe she had a priceless look on her face when she saw what her husband did.
