The Shopping Trip by Cloud

Exhausted after marking thirty children’s books, Mr. Ball grumpily trudged into the supermarket.
“I can’t believe I have to do shopping on a day like this,” he mumbled to himself.
He walked through the automatic doors into the dreaded supermarket Mr. Ball hated everything about going to the supermarket; he hated the cheery supermarket staff that are always asking you to try stuff and he hated the other smiley customers and the same song playing over and over again.

Mr. Ball was already half way through the supermarket when he finally realized that he forgot to get a trolley.
“Oh pants I forgot to get a trolley!” he shouted as everyone around him turned and stared at him as if he was a crazy person.
“What are you looking at?” he asked as they went away.
Mr. Ball then pulled out his list from inside his right pocket,
“Ok let’s see what I need to get,” Mr. Ball said to himself than he recited the following:

Chocolate cake,

Semi-skimmed milk,

Bread,

Chocolate,

Cereal,

Sausage Rolls.

As Mr. Ball read out these items on the list he was amazed. Because all of these items had magically come alive and were heading towards his trolley each item was singing a different song. As he experienced this amazing happening all he could think was, how come no-one
else was seeing this? Everyone else round him was acting normal not even paying attention to this miraculous event as Mr. Ball just stood there in awe at what was happening before his eyes.
“ Chocolate cake, chocolate cake here I come I am round and yummy and I’ll make your mouth water with just one look!” sang the yummy chocolate cake as it cautiously climbed into the trolley making sure that it didn’t mess up the icing on it’s head. But the chocolate cake did leave a trail of chocolate crumbs on the floor.

This happened with all of the items on the shopping list until they all made themselcves comfortable in the trolley. As Mr. Ball made his way to the checkout all the items in the trolley shouted
“Weeeeeeee!” every time he went round a corner.
Mr Ball was so worried what the cashier would say when he went to pay but as he enters the checkout all the items went back to their normal less annoying and lifeless selves. Then Mr. Ball finished his shopping trip, as he walked out he had a huge smile on his face. Have you ever had a weird shopping trip like Mr. Ball’s trip?

Food in the store by Frankie

After running through muddy puddles, Frankie was going to do some shopping at the supermarket. He started looking for food in the store and saying food off his list, when he was saying the foods they came to life, dancing and singing songs like “I’m a happy little chocolate bar!” and other things like that. Slowly Frankie carried on shopping later to realise there still dancing. Excitedly Frankie shouted everything off the shelves in the supermarket, stuff he didn’t even need he shouted.
Later that night, Frankie was still in the store, getting food and drinks until there was nothing left in the shop. He decided to try saying shop accessories like tills, shelves, trollies and baskets. So they all came dancing to him and flattened him. Frankie woke up in hospital but when he woke up the doctors were… FOOD! He screamed and ran out of the hospital later to realise he was a sausage he thought it was a dream so he closed his eyes and counted to three “One, two and three” he opened his eyes but he turned into a different food, he counted again “One two three!” he was a pizza.
Quickly he ran back to the store and everything was food. The windows were burgers the doors were ice cream, he loved it!

The Meerkats by Nicole

It was a normal late night and my family and I were watching a film, and we had popcorn and then while we were watching the film the TV went all funny and a bit 3D and it went more like 4D then 5D and 6D then 7D we just changed the film but it was still like that.
Then we changed the film and there were some meerkats but the TV was still blurry and 7D then something terrible happened. Somehow the meerkats came out of the TV that was amazing but weird, also they came out nice and safe and they are super real.
The meerkats were walking all around the house and went to the kitchen and opened the fridge and took some food out actually took all of it then we had to go to the shop to buy some more food we bought loads of food, we also had to buy a little fridge for the meerkats and more food for them of course because they would get all of our food again and we would probably starve to death. They would have a big house to live in they would be very happy. But that is not going to happen at all. So we even taught how to make the meerkats talk listen to what we say and they can do what they are told to do and they can dance tango!
We got so tired but we had to buy the meerkats a bed so my dad went to the shop to buy them and I went to bed but the meerkats are going to sleep near my bed ok I need to go to sleep now bye.

The Magic Items by Zia

A girl named Esme was just at home playing with her cat. Her cat was named Xandaer and he was grey and white. A couple minutes later Esme’s mum shouted her and they went to the shop. Every Friday they go to the shop and Esme writes a tiny list of what food she would like and this time her list lots of things on. Her mum counted how many things were on her list and when she got to ten she got a pencil out her pocket and crossed the rest of the things out. Esme got a little trolley and started to shop.
She said out loud the first thing on her list which was chocolate, suddenly she heard a song going like this. I am chocolate I am chocolate I’m coming to you I’m coming to you. Esme looked around then looked in her trolley and her favourite chocolate was in the trolley. She then said all the things on her list and they all came singing into her trolley. After 30 seconds passed her shopping was complete. As her mum was only just finding her second out of fifty things Esme decided to buy a camera as she loves photography so she did. When she had finished her shopping she was wondering how she would get her dancing singing items past the checkout. She finally thought of an Idea so she used her idea and at the top of her voice she shouted “SHUT UP ITEMS.” So they did. When she got home she went to see her cat Xandaer.
At night time everyone in the house went to sleep in their cosy beds. The next morning the foods were singing really loud so they took Esme’s things back to the shop and just walked round normally getting the things

Oscar's shopping trip by Isabelle

Oscar dragged himself down the road for a late night shop, which was not his idea of fun. As he walked past the line of shopping trolleys he held out his hand, grabbed one, and dragged it behind him miserably. Oscar walked into the supermarket and quickly put the trolley in front of him so he didn’t seem he was tired or anything.
Oscar slowly walked through the isle but instead of normal groceries they seemed to be singing. As Oscar walked past they all sang their own theme song. “We’re the bread, bread, bread, bread, bread, bread!” they sang in the isle. “We’re the MIIILLLLK buy us now, we’re semi skimmed oh yeah!” Wherever Oscar went there was singing food. He tried to ignore it and got out his shopping list. What was even weirder about this is that when Oscar put them into the trolley they started singing the start of the lion king! “Ahhhhh savenyaaaaaa!” Whenever Oscar turned a corner they screamed “Weeeeeeeeeeee!”
Oscar became worried whether the shopkeeper would accept them. Hurriedly he tried to shut them up but failed. He came to the till and the music stopped, Oscar looked down and realized they didn’t have faces anymore. Oscar stood with his mouth as wide as a river. “May I help you sir?” asked the lady “Yes p-p please.” Replied Oscar. He gathered his things and went home. Oscar turned on the TV and was just in time for pointless. This was a very rare case so it’s not just humans that have musical enthusiasm.

 P.S The singing was perfectly harmonized.

Late night shopping by Mia

It was a cold and shiny night and Richie was going for his late night walk to the nearest supermarket that was uptown.
When he got there his colourful shopping list out his ratchet pockets, as he got it out he got a trolley and walked into the shop. Slowly he read out the first thing on his list “apple” and into the trolley dancing and singing about. Secondly he said “carrots” then carrots came dancing and singing and everything he got was just dancing and singing and shouting “weeeeee” in the trolley.
When he got to the till food was moving it was back to its normal form. When the women looked none of the food was moving. It was all back to normal and by normal I mean not singing or dancing or doing anything it was just still and calm. After he packs the food in the carrier bag he walked out the shop and went home.

The strangest time in the supermarket by Lisa

I was doing my weekly shop after work as I do every Sunday night until I thought that it was almost impossible to have experienced the secret life of grocery items.
Eventually I got into the store I decided to read out the items that I needed from the aisle I was on. “Right, so I need milk, cheese and maybe some ham.” (As you can tell, I am on the dairy aisle.) “Mmmmm, and I would like a strawberry milkshake too!” when I looked up the most shocking thing I had ever seen was before my eyes. The shopping was dancing and singing and everything had it’s own theme tune!
“Wow!” I said. All of the shopping was getting incredibly comfortable in his shopping trolley. But as I looked around, nobody seemed to notice them. It was as if they were not even there, but I could see them, I was so sure that they were there!
Wearily, I looked around at the people around me and I had so many questions for them but I thought people would question me if I was talking to my shopping. “ never mind, it doesn’t matter, they are not really there! Are they? No they can’t be.” I kept talking to myself over and over again. As I went round the corner though they were laughing, yelling and going “Weeeeeeeeeee!”
I went to the next aisle and I picked up the items myself this time but when I touched them they jumped out of my hands and ran across the floor into my shopping trolley. I had the got all of my shopping so I needed to go to the cashier. I was incredibly worried at this point at what the cashier person would say but I still went there as I needed to have my shopping so I had no choice but to go there anyway.
When he got there all the items were giggling at how fun it was on the moving floor, they kept falling over and screaming with laughter. But when each and every item was scanned, they turned back to normal “phew!” I thought in relief “ I will never forget today in my whole entire life!” I carried on packing my bags and went home that night thinking I was absolutely mad! Or was I kind of mad?

The Shop by Jessica

Nick Watson got out of his shiny Jaguar and continued his shopping. He walked through the automatic door and grabbed a trolley. Nick pulled out a piece of paper and started to look through it. He called the first item out, “Potatoes.” A bag of potatoes started walking up to his trolley singing, “Buy, me I’m Gluten Free.” Nick stood there in amazement. He picked it up and threw it into his trolley.

He then called the second item off the list and the same thing happened again. Slowly, the milk walked over to him but this time he sang a different song, “Milk, today, is half price!” Nick wasn’t that surprised the second time, so he just puts it into his trolley.

He called the next item, ”Eggs.”
“Eggs, eggs, eggs eggs and eggs.” Nick places it into his trolley. He didn’t really like this song because he thought that it was too plain and it didn’t have any special at .

Finally, he called the last item, “Rice.” The rice came down the aisle singing,
“Rice, rice is very nice.” Nick was too tired to place it into the trolley so instead he threw it in the trolley.

He then goes to the counter and wondered what she will say. When Nick turned around to pick up an item only to find that nothing was inside it. Nick steps out of the queue and realises that the shop was about to close. Nick went to the automatic door and walks through.

The Messy Meerkats by Tia A

The sun came down and the moon went up, the stars were shining bright. The house with all the lights on, were watching meerkat lice. The TV show was all about how meerkats scratch their lice, but the meerkat took one move and stood in their living room.
Instantly they took over the whole entire house, while playing board games and, rummaging through their bags, they searched and searched and finally found some chocolate melting on the ground.
When they finished eating the chocolate, they walked towards the fridge. Then they drank the orange juice and spilt all of the milk. But then soon after they wanted to play: Monopoly, Lego and card games.
The family were shocked but looked amazed at what they could see. But it’s time to go so open the door and walk home safely.The family began to watch the film while playing board games that were left on the floor near the door that was left by those naughty little meerkats!!!!

The Meerkats by Kaci-Shaye

All was warm and cosy in the front room. All was silent in the front room. The family was watching television, they were watching the soaps (Coronation Street, Emmerdale and EastEnders) they loved watching the soaps after a hard day at work. Then the meerkat advert came on (the children loved it they made them laugh) then the meerkats came walking out from the telly.

The family sat down and watched in amazement. The meerkats took over the front room, then they walked in the kitchen it a single file line like school kids. Slowly they opened the silver, cold fridge and took out the orange juice and had one sip each, then they got the milk out and had two sips out then they left the milk out. Quickly they searched the house for board games and they found loads in Lilly’s bedroom there were monopoly, Lego and other board games.  They had a lot of fun but then an hour later they thought they should leave the house so they waved to the nice warm family, the children watched the meerkats go into the house in front of them.

The children were quite sad that the meerkats were gone, but they were happy that they came for 1½ hours and  it was good fun they said to their parents. The parents said, “We should tidy up the way the meerkats left the house, come on kids you put the games away and me and your dad will put the drinks away and mop the floor. "
