Under the tree at….

1. When this gal walked into Spar and accidentally asked for a straw for her wine… and they obliged

Thanks, Spar.

2. When this infamous sign was hung up in one of its stores

BUT WHAT INCIDENT INSPIRED THIS SIGN?

3. When this “gourmet” branch opened on Baggot Street

Very notions altogether.

4. When they stacked toilet paper in front of alcohol on Good Friday

Lest the mere sight of alcohol incite a riot, you see.

5. When the branch on Dame Street became informally known as “Gay Spar”

Due to its proximity to The George <3

6. When Bressie terrified not one, but two female customers

7. When different colours and varieties of “ladies thighs” were available in Ringsend

Elaborate, please.

8. When this local branch tried to inspire customers with this Thought of the Day

Aw Spar, you big sap.

9. When gals working in Insomnia gave this lad a free roll

Flirting pays off, you see.

10. When Hillary Clinton visited DCU and denied students access to their beloved chicken rolls

Something that will inevitably be brought up in the forthcoming election.

11. And finally… when this lad in the deli queue grossed everyone out with his choice of spread

Being grossed out by what the person in front of you orders? Just part and parcel of going to Spar, tbh.
