Saran Wrap = Cling Film

Posted on by TheShoppingLists.com

Many thanks to a contributor in the US who found and emailed this list.

Out of the 6 items, only the coke is for human consumption with the other items being mainly paper based, Kleenex, paper towels and napkins.

For U.K. readers, Saran Wrap is what we call clingfilm. Much like Kleenex, the brand name is used.

The author of this list has all caps writing in a black ink.

Grocer’s Apostrophe

Posted on by TheShoppingLists.com

A5 Lined note paper with blue biro. Consistent use of the grocer’s apostrophe.

A grocer’s apostrophe is a spelling mistake caused by placing an apostrophe before the s of a plural word. In English, the plural form of a word is most commonly shown by adding an s to the end (e.g., “cats,” “bananas,” “pictures”). Don’t add your own apostrophe!

Not sure what Mary (Nurpac) is.
