I can't bay-leaf it: Supermarket spice game peppering shelves with rude words

By Daily Mail Reporter

It's a shelf stacker's worst nightmare.

Facebook users have been re-arranging spices on supermarket shelves to spell out rude words.

The game - dubbed Supermarket Scrabble - drives store staff mad as they have to hurriedly re-arrange the letters to remove the rude words.

Shoppers have re-arranged spices on shelves to spell out rude words like 'balls', 'bint' and 'slapper' - and posting the images on Facebook.

The group - called Supermarket Scrabble - says: 'To make trips to the shops more fun, try arranging things on the shelves to make new, amusing and even rude words, images or sculptures.'

One user wrote on the website: 'Ha ha - this is ace!'

Other players have moved beyond the spices aisle and switched round birthday cards and other items with large letters on the front.
