Condoms usually are a great choice. Or several toilet brusches (works only if the trolley is full enough to hide them). You can also hide people's trolleys. Or take some electronic label from an item and paste it inside someone's jacket or on their bag (going out from the supermarket triggers the alarm).
We sewed the innards of one of those shop tags into the lining of one of my housemates jackets when I was at uni. He couldn't walk in or out of a shop without triggering the alarms. Somehow the joke never grew stale although he did put two and two together when the same thing started happening to him the following winter.

Another joke is to ask for something completely impossible: In French, we have the same word for scale and ladder, e.g. "Echelle". My wife was once sent to the supermarket by my brother to fetch an "Echelle de Richter". Of course she did not find it, and asked a vendor. She came back home infuriated. :-\
I remember people getting sent to stores with a requisition order for a long weight.

Except for breakfast. What you call breakfast in England is more suitable for lunch or dinner in most other countries... :)
A good breakfast: Bacon x2 Sausages x2 Eggs (Lightly Fried, sunny side up), x2 Fried slice of bread Beans Mushrooms Tomato (Half, Fried) Black Pudding Potato Bread Served with lashing of Hot Sweet Milky Tea! That breakfast won us an Empire!

I like to ask for my money back on Lucky Dips as they turned out to not be 'lucky', which I think is a very reasonable request.
I have so got to try that! Trades Description Act! Brilliant.

I assume by the French you mean the Normans? Invaded by the French - you're having a laugh ;-)
I know the Normans had only been in France for a couple of generations before the invasion but that still makes them French!

At that time there was no France, there was Normandy, Anjou, Aquitaine etc.

If you want a cheap laugh, go to a supermarket and bring up a crate of beer and a pack of nappies, when you go to pay say you only have enough money for one of them and put the nappies back, just watch the look on the persons face.

Thanks, I will try that one. Other things to do whilst shopping are to put unusual things into other peoples trolleys, or, if you are an expert in such things, remove items from their trolleys!

Hey, it's fun, and what is the point of growing up if you can't be child sometimes?

I'm not saying it's a wrong thing. I thought if it were just me. :-O I do many of those things occasionally, and here's my most recent trick: Close the hand wash pipe in the office wash room (and sink) *really* tight (I'm an amateur bodybuilder). It's fun! :)
