why am I watching this at 4am

[@VengaboysRbackINtown]

I know. I know full well why she’s doing it. Same bloody reason as me!!

[@simonnelson7770]

tanukiprincess clover I'm on the toilet at midday on a Saturday watching it and wondering why I'm watching it

Nostalgia is a strange beast. I don't know if it's healthy but it is soothing.

[@tjmiller2086]

Lol 5am for me 😂

[@sosagecaserol6675]

I was born in 2002 but love watching videos like these. It feels comfy and familiar even though I was never there. It has a very quiet relaxing quality that modern life doesn’t.

[@tomosburton1756]

Look at that old packaging!

[@melgrant7404]

Tetley hasn't changed much

[@Rob1Rich]

Oh I don't know. She hasn't aged that bad.

[@1Cineworld]

That lady looks angry at how slow the cashier is going. Somethings never change.

Keep your Propaganda with you. Stop being problematic , Stop being rude and selfish, Stop giving law rating.

Life is so much better and simpler back then

[@That.Lady.withtheYarn]

It think it has more to do with less people. Less crowding.

[@OzzyOscy]

No way, it was boring. We had 4 tv channels!

That old bird took ages to pay - and she was faffing about getting her purse out of her bag too. No wonder folk stuck in a queue get annoyed.

This is 1995..judging by the Tetley teabag off of a keyring..Googles a wonderful thing

[@bigboxbobby2]

Are you serving the mystery shopper?

[@carlwakefield889]

No buying your plastic bags then

[@silversteel6312]

I was that mystery shopper. I was dressed as a box of Ariel and let me tell you she handled me beautifully.

[@tedwardtaylortv]

They should have show the till keyboard with all the buttons. That’s the best bit!

[@barcodeBoy666-Barcoded]

This is awesome !

[@janegibbon282]

Packaging looks mostly similar to now.

[@williamharris7641]

Who else saw the jars of Nutella

[@officialblinx964]

Me and why do you care

[@marcse7en]

I saw them! ... Like little jars of sh*te! 💩🤣 ... "Sh*tella!"

[@octavialove7510]

I remember those milk cartons!

[@richardmay793]

Old dear paying had an orange Pepe jeans key ring, used to pinch them as a kid in the clothes shops in broad mead, Bristol 😂😂

[@merwinlatosa4989]

I love Ariel Detergent

[@kurt479]

People queued patiently back then. Also notice how nobody is bothered about putting the ‘next customer’ separator down at the tills. Now it’s like people are paranoid they might have to accidentally pay for your shopping

[@Neil219]

I am trying to remember the name of a desert, it was like a fine rice pudding with apricot jell at the bottom (could have been on top). In an individual plastic container. any ideas appreciated.

[@bobsmoczkiewicz]

Fruitini??

[@Calfaeairdrie]

What Asda was this & do you have any other Supermarket clips from the 1980s/1990s that you could upload.

[@ianbarnes9192]

Is this Asda Watford?, it looks like it I worked there in the 90s.

[@christopherdrennan3511]

Hi do you have any footage of the pollok centre in Glasgow?

[@musicfan2511]

When everyone used cash!

[@rickyoliver1602]

Love it, woman couldn't be more agitated at how long the checkout process was taking, then couldn't pack quick enough. There's your bloody beef lattice & four pack deserts...am I going too fast love...? *boop* *boop* *boop**boop* *boop* *boop*

[@jkk45]

[@tjmiller2086]

Nice video

[@simonnelson7770]

How bloody long did she take to find £7.99 !!!!

[@waynejarrell1]

The woman at the begining my goodness she took ages. I'd have just pushed her shopping on the floor! 😃

[@Rob1Rich]

She starts searching for money (why not get it to hand before?) at 1.54 and doesn't hand over the money until 2.34. 40 seconds to pay, no one wonder the lady in the mac coat is frustrated.

[@KittyKat-vb1nd]

Civility still existed unlike the angry zombies of now.

[@Bee-kx9rc]

All that card/paper packaging is all plastic now.

[@tomosburton1756]

Have you got any Safeway footage?

[@stephaniespragg5586]

Bloxcake yes it was what Morrisons used to be

[@lewisculverwellvlogs9789]

​@stephaniespragg5586 The stores in the South East and the South West used to be called Safeway, while the Morrisons stores were only operated in the North West of England, but the first South East of England Morrisons store opened in Erith, Greater London in 1998 despite the fact that Morrisons did not take over from Safeway until 2004

[@richardmulcahy9919]

by the Mid 1990s all UK Supermarkets operating on Sundays

[@marmite400]

Love to know what their bills came to.

[@rcart1]

The staff had balls back then unlike the ones in 2010s and the now 2020s

This is Safeway supermarket I think 🤔 94-96

[@fionapatterson-cheek3170]

Lean Cuisine...whatever happened to that?

It was replaced with "Fat Cuisine!" 👎🤣

[@timothyclapham3934]

Did you see the stand off at one minute in 😃😅

[@xxvikkiixxrowe1806]

Thank god for scan and go 🙏🤣🤣

[@marcse7en]

Yes, I really enjoy doing the cashier's job for FREE! ... But, al least I only scan my items once, and don't pay twice! 🤣

[@_B.M_]

Why is it that this looks so much older than it actually is? If the title didn't show mid 90s, I'd have though late 70s

[@davebunyan1162]

They didn't have barcode scanners in the 70s

[@jejepalmer]

it doesn’t look old at all, in fact this is quite good quality for the 90s

[@jaymackie1164]

Love seeing the old cardboard milk cartons - but I remember what a bitch they could be to open successfully sometimes. The plastic cartons are much better now. Judging by the bunnies and daffodils it’s Easter time and looking at some of the packaging and fashions it’s 1995 yes.

[@Fritha71]

We still have cardboard milk cartons, juice cartons and yoghurt cartons in Finland, often they come with a plastic cap these days. Plastic carton doesn't even ring a bell with me...

[@adeforeman86]

Is that Theresa May in the queue at the beginning haha

[@harreypotter5941]

Oh yes it is!

[@user-lx3oi6xy2e]

The cashier coughed into her hand tut tut.

[@sarahlouise7163]

what’s wrong with that, probably just clearing her throat anyway bet you are still wearing a mask

Its 1995

[@naxzed_it]

1995 in Asda.

[@DaveyC95]

Pocket the Difference. A slogan used by Asda from 1992 to 1996. The staff uniforms were different in all Asda stores by 1996. The one that the checkout operator is wearing is a design from the mid-80s.
