I think mine was when I was about 13/14 and I was going to be fitted for a bra when the pesky shop assistent burst into the changing room un-announced and I was not quite ready for her arrival at that particular moment ...

I was and18 year old in Paris. It ws the height of tourist season, I was alone after spending a year in the country as an exchange student. Admittedly, I was in shorts, a t-shirt and sandals. I had always heard of the famous Maxime's restaurant, and I was curious about the menu. I walked in to the restaurant (between lunch and dinner, so the dining room was closed). I was reading the menu when the hostess appraoched me and asked me pointedlly what I wanted. I told her I was just looking at the menu,as I was looking forward to someday eating there. "That would be as wonderful for you as it would be surprising for us." was her response. Ouch.

Shopping in tesco is like shopping in a microwave oven on full for 35 minutes. Every square yard of the ceiling has a large flat rectangular light, which pushes the temp right up, as well as the store being packed with other shoppers, rising the temp further. I can never manage to reach the checkout without feeling, and probably looking, like I just had a turkish bath.
But recently, tesco did show some mercy, by fitting slots in parts of the store ceiling that blast cool air down, which is lovely, but it's only in the deli, fruit and veg sections.

I was in a PC shop, the World was my oyster, and after waiting 30 minutes to get served I asked the guy if they had any computers that were Pentium4 equivalent, he just said No and walked off! The shop was full of them!
I went to another shop accross the way, Haleys Comet flew above, they were so much better in there, served me straight away and showed me every type of PC.

I was in in a shop in Spain and a young girl (10 years old approx ) stood straight next to me said very loudly look at the size of that dil*o, I couldn't stop laughing but no one else was amused, I left sharpish.
By the way it wasn't a sex shop just an ordinary paper shop where id gone for a paper!

Mine had to be when i went shopping for Christmas Eve. Silly me had left my partner get a few items while shopped for others. Then i was looking everywhere in my handbag (Black hole of Calcutta) for my mini purse with cards while he stuck everything on the conveyor? Bottles fell off it, crashed on the floor splashing me (And another customer) with wine, bags with parsnips and sprouts opened, some of them fell on the floor, and this began to happen ... He did what men do! Took off! Went to hide in some corner, leaving me to deal with it all and if that wasn't bad enough ... I realised he was carrying our money in his wallet, was on his mobile somewhere and had to keep everyone waiting while i looked for him, found him and go back with the money!!!! The shop was packed, if looks could kill I'd have died!!! If not because of other customers and check out assistant ... Shame!

4 years ago i went into my local newsagents to get a copy of PC zone so as you do, you pick up a copy of the mag and then go pay for it...
That's until i turned around ,my bag hit the wall, sent all the mags flying off the shelf, that includes the porn ones too.
so i help tidy up the mess i caused, unknowingly picking up the porn mag instead of my usual.
So i go pay for the magazine, looking at the shop owners face while it lighted up like a candle in a fire, only to see it was a porn mag, not only that it was a gay mag.......... Still to this day he thinks I'm gay? (obviously I ain't)....... Bloody PC Zone... I still get embarest just thinking about it "SHIVER"

well my worst experience of a shop is rather basic and obvious, but still it is a bad experience. i basically picked up a lot of items , with a que of 20 behind me, when i was asked to pay, i realised i did not bring my wallet, i was so embarassed as everyone was looking at me and laughing, i lost out on those items as i could never go back.

I did the trip to the Chemist for Condoms, and yes, it took three trips before I would ask the girl for them, bought toothpaste, sugar free sweets and a shaving mirror first.
I was going out with a girl and we weren’t sexually active, I was just curious about them as everyone else talked about them, had them etc and I felt left out!
Long story short, the girl behind the counter was giving me funny looks, didn’t know she was a friend of the girl I was going out with.
Later that day I was asked to explain myself, how do you explain a posh w**k to a girl at that age.
She dumped me, her Sister called me names and her older brother chased me for about 2 miles. My mum then found them in my pocket.
GUTTED!
Ive only bought them from dispensing machines since as even seeing them in a shop fills me with horror!
