I May Have To Change Grocery Stores, But I Still Have My Panties

How many people do you know who can say they lost their underwear at the grocery store? Yep, underpants lost at my local Kroger. Now before you start to think that I was getting hinky with the frozen foods guy, let me explain.

I had errands to run so I had to put on real clothes. For those of you who don't know me in person this means actual pants (not sweats or jammie type pants), shirts with no holes & the appropriate undergarments. If I'm at home all day, I cannot vouch for what you will see if you come knocking on my door unexpectedly, but I can assure you that it isn't pretty.

I was at Target looking for some of those new empire-waisted baby doll type tops that are in style right now & flatter my type of figure. You know the body type with extra rolls of fat around the middle & rear, (sorry to have to leave that image in your head.) When I was reaching in my jeans pocket to get out my car keys I thought I felt something in there besides my keys. I dug around & alas, nothing but keys. I hopped in my Mom-mobile (teal colored Ford Windstar mini-van) & ran off to the grocery store.

I got some lettuce from the produce department, started to move on & realized that I needed some fruit so I circled back. Then I saw them. Laying on the tile in the produce department was a pair of my underwear. 

You may wonder how I knew they were mine, but I knew it as well as I know my name. Those were my underpants...laying on the floor...in the middle of the produce department...at my local Kroger. They must have been stuck inside my jeans from the dryer. I quickly walked over to the bread aisle & weighed my choices. These were a favorite pair of mine. The kind that don't wedge into inappropriate places, don't droop, sag or show visible panty lines. I needed to get these underwear back!

I casually walked back to produce noticed that there were several people around, but none of them were near my unders. Luckily I was able to kick them into the organic food department & pick them up without anyone noticing. I hope.

That is sooooo beyond funny and something that could soooo happen to me and I'm soooo glad it didn't! I can picture the whole thing!!! Pam, seriously, you have to write a book with all this stuff in it. You'll be a gazillionaire and then move next door to me! (all gazillionaires want to, don't cha know!)

Love you, you silly woman!

joe tacoma said...

Too funny! I'm not sure exactly what I would think if I saw a pair of panties in the produce department.

Great Post! Happy SITS day!

I love that you got them back. I think I would have left them there and just bought a new pair.

FranticMommy said...

Great story! A Mommy needs to protect & cherish her favorite undies cuz on some days, those are the ONLY things that are not irritating and annoying. My fav pair had to be laid to rest a few years ago. I was a sad day. They Faded Glory brand but were so ratty my hubby called them Farted Gory. I didn't care. I loved 'em. *sigh*. Sorry if that was TMI. Love your blog!

That is worse than the random pair of socks falling out of the bottom of one's pants. Oh well, at least you got them back. Fun post!

Tiffany said...

I love that you picked them up in the organic section. Too funny!

Becky @ Our Sweet Peas said...

So funny. I love a girl who can pick up her undies in the grocery store with pride :) Did I just say that?

Astrid in Bristling Acres said...

Ha ha ha ha! That is just too funny! Thanks for the laugh! :)
happy sits day!

I don't know if I would've had the nerve or not. Kudos to you Pam for putting shame in its place! LOL

Robin said...

great post....

Pam said...

Very Funny and glad to know I'm not the only one this has happened to. It happened to me in 7th grade! 7th grade - the height of self-consciousness. Only mine were laying on the floor right in front of my locker. YIKES! Glad you got yours back.

Creative Junkie said...

A good pair of undies that don't have wedgies built right in them is worth a little humiliation in the grocery aisle! Glad you got 'em back!

RebeccaMom said...

I would have been mortified!

Christina Lee said...

too funny!! Happy SITS day!

countryfriedmama said...

I love that blogger instinct to take the most embarrassing moment and share it with the world. Too funny!

Happy SITS day!

Jennifer Juniper said...

Ha! Well, I was standing in the kitchen with my brother as my mom cooked Easter dinner this year and while we were talking I felt a lump on my butt. So I reached in and pulled out some underpants! My brother was shocked and horrified that I could just pull off my underpants in some sort of super wedgie! I waited a bit before telling him they must have been folded into the jeans. Good times....

Happy sits ;)

Allison D said...

I would have stopped by victoria secret on the way home. Good for you!

Cher said...

oh my gosh that is so funny. there's nothing better than your favorite pair of underwear. good for you for braving it! :)

Mary | Deep South Dish said...

Hilarious! Well, glad you were able to retrieve them, but me, I think you shoulda made a production out of it just to get a rise out of other folks in the produce department! Can you imagine how many stories would have gone home across your town??

Happy SITS Day!

Rachel said...

Nice! good job being smooth about it.

The underwear from the dryer has been a problem for me twice.

Husband found a pair of little boy's stuck inside his pant leg AT WORK and I had a thong hanging around my ankle while giving a presentation once!

Lol, too funny!

You're terribly brave. I would've sacrificed them to the Target gods, because there's no way I could've made myself do that. I commend you for a job well done!

pan x 8 said...

OMGosh!!! How hilarious and then you even wanted to pick them up! I totally would've walked away and tried actively to forget that!! hehehehe!

AndreaLeigh said...

hilarious. i'm notorious for walking around with size stickers on my shirts all day and not noticing.

Anonymous said...

If you've gotta lose them then that's definitely the best way to recover them. Stopping by from SITS!

Frantic Holly said...

HILARIOUS! Guess we shouldn't tell you about the security people that watch the store constantly huh? Happy SITS day!

Rhiannon Bosse said...

haha how cute! I would do the same for my favorite pair! I think many of us SITS girls would :) Happy SITS Day!!!

Unknown said...

Happy SITS day!! I think I've dropped by before, I love your sense of humor. I think I would have been way more mortified, and I'm not sure I could have retrieved my dropped panties so slyly...........but good for you girl! Where do you grocery shop now? LOL.

tammy said...

ROFL! Now that was really, really funny. I know it wasn't funny at the time...but just think, it gave you a GREAT post for your blog. I probably would have just died...and left them there. hehe...probably no one saw on the floor, but they may be replaying the tape over and over again upstairs. hehe

Lisa said...

That's too funny.

Amanda @ Serenity Now said...

Happy SITS day! FUNNY story!!! :) I don't that I would have thought to kick them to the next dept. I would have just picked them up with my shame-filled face. ;)

That is so funny! It's almost as bad as when you walk around with undies stuck to the back of your clothes!

You know the security people were probably watching you on their surveillance cameras laughing their butts off. I would have just left them there!

Mountain Mama said...

I want to laugh so badly, but I fear karma too much!

I think I now know where my odd socks are. And that helps explain some other missing laundry.

Tea Time Consultants said...

Love your story. I know this to be true, accept my panties were not from the dryer.

My husband says he can not believe how fast I can peel out of my clothes. Well there are advantages and disadvantages. Sometimes you forget to check the panties or pantyhose (I know you do not wear these, this shows my age), they cling to the jeans.

Just as in your tale, these undies come out at the most awful times, mine was at a mall. Another little kid was pointing down at my leg. Once again, will all the calm manners I could pull together, I pulled the panties rest of the way out of my pant leg. I am sure, my face was blood red with embarassment.

Girly Do Hairstyles said...

Its these little moments that make life worth laughing through!!! I'd have died--- you handled things very well!

Cat said...

That would so happen to me! Embarrassing moments happen to me like flies happen to poop. Thanks for sharing and happy SITS day.

Kate Coveny Hood said...

I would have retrieved them too. Underwear that fits well is a big priority of mine since I can't STAND those little rolls that elastics make (I actually buy a size up to avoid that).

I something like this has happened to me before. But it was a sock - so far more PG-13.

Unknown said...

This was just the thing I needed to get my day started off good!!! Thanks for the laugh :)

Unfortunately, I had a similar thing happen to me, but I was a teenager. eating at the pizza place where the cutest guy ever worked at so naturally I needed to impress him...as I am walking, no I mean Struting my stuff a pair of underwear falls out of the pant leg (Stuck in there from the dryer!) . I was HORRIFIED!!! LOL

That is too funny! I have done the same thing but not dropped them at the grocery store. When I go on vacation, sometimes I put my underwear in the back pocket of my jeans. One time I forgot to remove them before I washed the jeans and I discovered they were still in my pocket when I got to work. Luckily I didn't pull them out. I went to bathroom and put them in my purse! I got lucky on that one!!! Happy SITS day!

Pseudo said...

HA! Great story. That happened to me once but I pretended I did not know anything and left them there. But it happned at work...

AdriansCrazyLife said...

Something similar happened to my grandmother. During WWII, there was an elastic shortage and they used buttons on their underwear. When she was crossing the street carrying a bag of groceries one day, the button popped and her drawers fell into the street. Being a quick thinker, she did the only thing she could do. She stepped out of them and kept right on walking!

Kirsty said...

LOLOL Three things:
1)Thank everything good they were a clean pair.

2)I can soo see this happening to me.

3)You are to be congratulated on your quick thinking re: kicking into organic foods. Nobody is ever in there. Nice one.

(I wonder if they got you on camera? You should check youtube)

oh, the joys of being a woman! lol.. you poor girl. When I was in the first few lines of this post I was trying to understand how one looses thier undies whislt wearing pants (laughs) now it's very clear.

I went to a bar once and had a pair of undies stuck to the back of my skirt.. my friends all knew it and not one of em told me. I kept getting looks from the men in the bar .. My ego was quite uplifted until I got home and realized just why that was lol ..

You have my deepest condolences my dear!

take care,

I can honestly say that I would be mortified to see something so intimate of mine in the produce aisle. Especially if it was a favorite garment. But I have to say I give you big props for thinking it through, collecting your thoughts and not jumping to rash decisions. I now feel prepared and well equipped to handle such an incident! Haha Thanks!

Susan said...

Stopping by from SITS

I would have been mortified and would have had to leave them right there in the produce dept. and go buy a new pair. You are braver than I would have been.

Hope you have a great SITS day.

I can out do this. I was at work and I really had to pee..but I needed to take a picture of an RV...well....I went to step out but forgot the electronic step was shut off...I fell right onto the pavement...it hurt so bad I forgot to hold my pee...so there it went. I had to do some sneaking around..had a friend help me..luckily we had a dryer on premises...but OMG it was mortifying. Nobody knew thank God...except for me and my friend!

I completely understand. You just can't abandon a good pair of panties!

Happy SITS Day!

Carey-Life in the Carpool Lane said...

Too funny! Pick in aisle 12!

Esther said...

If someone did see you, I don't know what would be worse, that they thought they were your undies and ask all the questions of why your undies would be on the ground, or that they were someone else's and you thought that you'd take them home anyway. Very funny.

Gretchen said...

Hee Hee that story's a hoot!

Kari Jenkins said...

Oh my lord! I had the same thing happen to me in junior high. There I was in math class first period- I had been running late and was still asleep when I felt something in the leg of my pants as I sat down...yup panties! I wish I could say they had come out of the dryer, but I know better. Those were the same jeans I had thrown on the floor the day before! Dirty 8th grader with yesterday's undies in her pant leg! Oh the horror!

Kimberly said...

Halarious!!! Holy Crap that was funny. And here I thought pulling out a dryer sheet was bad. You total have me beat!

Stopping in from Sits, but think I will definitely be back!

piecemeal people said...

Well, I give you a ton of credit for picking them up. If it had been me, my next stop after the grocery store would have been to replace that underwear, because on the floor of the produce section they would have stayed!

Happy SITS day!

What's funny beyond words is that you kicked it and I'm sure that you will be on some NBC special with your face blurred out (of course) and them saying something like "Now watch this woman. No explanation necessary." :o) It's a hard thing to find undies with a perfect fit. Brava for you that you reclaimed your property!

My best, Lynn

Shan G said...

Jeannie sent me the link to this post because I just did a post on the evolution of underwear.

This was too funny. I would be mortified. When I was a kid, though, I accidentally flushed my underwear down the toilet inside Wards. They were my favorite pair. :(
