My son and I went to buy hairdye for my wife and we bought her the one with the prettier girl on the box. My wife is blonde, and we bought her red dye. My son picked it.
I think it was when my dad took pictures of all of the restrooms in all of the stores that my mom was dragging him into.
My son was in 3rd grade and had to write about someone famous or infamous. He thought infamous meant NOT famous so he wrote about my dad being such an honest man that he walked 10 blocks back to the grocery store to return 25 cents that they gave him in error.
The funnies thing my dad used to do for shopping was that maybe once a year or so, he would decide to make a “late night” shopping trip after visiting my gradparents. It was really maybe 9pm, but it certainly felt like we were out way later than we should be allowed.
I went shopping with my Dad earlier this year and he decided that I was taking too long, walked over to the shoe department, sat down and took a nap.
My dad got lost in the mall we had to page him.It was so funny and embrassing.He hates shopping and hasn’t been since
We have a picture of my dad asleep on a bench in the Mall. As the only male in the family, that seemed to happen to him a lot!
I frequently hear about a certain daddy that can clear two aisles at a store due to bad farts LOL
When Dad shops he always buys sardines but he never eats them. We have about 20 cans of sardines in the closet. Some of them are expired.

I can remember when I was younger and my Dad had to go downtown for a meeting so I went with to shop.Well~it just so happened that the shoe store was having a sale and my Dad came and bought me like 10 different pairs of shoes and my Mom just looked at us when we got home as she said I was spoiled 🙂
The finniest shopping trip I can imagine was my mom sending my dad to the grocery store with a list ans it included specific feminine products. I can imagine my dad searching the aisle for the spcecific brand and style.
I could remmber my husband going on a shopping trip the day before Christmas expecting to find me and the kids a nice present. Needless to say he showed up with Hockey t-shirts for the whole family. We don’t even watch hockey.
It would have to be when I sent my husband to the store to buy diapers for our newborn and he called me from the store because he couldn’t find them, he was in the adult diaper section! lol Thank you for the giveaway!
My Dad did the grocery shopping in our house and he always bought food that wasn’t on Mom’s list but we never complained because it was usually junk food.
It wasn’t funny to him but our grandfather wnt shopping with grandmother. Returning to the car He put the bags on top of the car. and drove off. Things were all over the parking lot. Grandmother was furious, a crowd gathered and security was trying to round up all the stuff. Grandpa said this would never have happened downtown. He swore off going to the mall again.
my husband once went grocery shopping and pit a whole cart of groceries in the wrong car..thank god i wasnt with him..lol
Well, once I went with Dad to Sams Club. I am a frugal shopper even there. But, he was just grabbing stuff left and right without even looking at unit prices. Pulled out my calculator and his mouth dropped at how much he could save even more if he paid attention
My dad hated to buy “monthly female” products. He would call the local drug store that delivered if we mentioned we needed such items. We occasionally had to call him at work and ask him to pick them up on his way home. We found out years later that he sent his secretary out to take care of our needs. Thank you for the opportunity to participate in this giveaway!
I dont know any really but I do know my father hates shopping with me!!

It has to be when my dad and mom would take us shopping. There were four of us kids. After we shopped, we’d stop for ice cream at Dairy Queen (I’m going back years!). Just to watch us all squabble, he would order 3 vanilla cones and 1 chocolate come. I think he really got a kick out of us fighting over the chocolate every time!
The funniest shopping story happened to me about a decade ago. I left my husband in the car while I ran into a store at a major mall. I forgot what door I entered and could not find the car. I circled the mall for FOUR hours finally getting a cab to take me home. At the house I was greated by my husband and the police. My husband was filing a missing persons report!
dad never shopped- he always had lists even for the hardware store for mom and would send him back and forth till it was te right thing- she was a patient woman…the only time I remember him shopping would be when they had the real warehouse bulk stores in the 70s and he would come home with hugs things of odd food for us….mom looked like she wanted to sell him at a warehouse store
searching for that car in the parking lot was a pretty common problem, good ole dad put a neon tennis ball on is antenna so he could find it.
Looks like a good movie
When my best friend and I were little we loved going to the used bookstore in town. Her dad would be watching us and surprise us with, “Do you girls want to get some ice-cream and books?!” Every time we got back her mom would say that he spoiled us rotten. 🙂
Look’s like a movie I would enjoy!
This movies looks too cute. I’ve yet to see it. My sister looks a lot like the main character though, which is cool! 🙂
thanks for the chance
“Dad” (my husband) doesn’t so shopping, except reluctantly, no funny stories to tell.
The funniest for me is when my Mom asks my Dad to go shopping at the mall with her, he always says, “I’d rather have a root canal.”
I guess the funny story is, for me, there is no funny shopping story.
i want to win
my husband has this awful look of pain if he has to shop and is so ill tempered.
The funniest is when my dad got lost at the mall.
Isla Fisher is so cute and fun in this movie! I would be thrilled to win.
My dad decided to take my boys shopping at the toysrus on the day that the wiis came out. He nearly got trampled by teenage boys trying to buy one before they sold out.
My mom and I have a Black Friday tradition. Every year we shop then have lunch. Two years ago my mom had to work. Dad volunteered to go Black Friday shopping with me. He hates shopping. We tried to warn him that Black Friday is not for the faint of heart, but he didn’t believe it would be that bad. The look on his face when we hit our first store was priceless! He couldn’t believe the crowds!
My dad fell asleep leaning against the wall and fell to the ground.
i would love to be the winner, thank you
My dad decided he wanted to buy his nephew a Nintendo Wii, he had no idea that everywhere he went it would be sold out and he ended up waiting in line for three hours at one location to get it! He said, never again! Thanks for the giveaway!
On my dad’s one and only trip to the mall alone, he bought my mom a dress that was big enough to fit FOUR of her! Seriously, she’s a size 6 and he bought this giant mumu. We still laugh about it!
Not that funny, but my son took his dirty diaper off and was peeing all over the oranges at the grocery store.
This would be great for my partner.
nice!
I’ve read the book but haven’t seen the movie yet so would love to win. Thanks!

Dad stats in the car and reads and listens to the radio,he doesn’t know what the inside of the mall looks like.
my dad was supposed to get me a pair of navy blue shorts when i was little.. he didn’t know what color navy blue was so the sales lady sold him 5 different colored pairs of shorts.. some of which werent even blue!
My dad is always 5 years behind in trends and when at the mall with him when younger was hillarious. He would find the most outdated outfits for us as kids.
I remember one time we went to the mall to pick out a prom dress and afterwards I had to get some teeth pulled. I took a valium beforehand to ‘ease the nerves’ and the whole, stumbling out of the store in a pair of platforms, left a glorious memory!
My dad used to spenf the entire time at the mall holding our bags- he now shops on ebay lol
My dad is older (91) – we went shopping at his favorite store (99 Cent Store). Somehow he had forgotten all about sales tax. Watching the expression on the cashier’s face was the funniest thing I had seen in good long while.
My father gave her a piece of his forgetful mind!
My dad loves to ooh and ahh at the fantastic prices he can find. He includes everyone in his glory including the cashier and others standing on line.
My dad bought my sister and I matching clothes until we were 14. we are two years apart and thought it would be cute.
I was shopping with my twin girls as they needed new panties among other things. Well we were discussing which panties to buy and we were being silly. As I announced to the girls “I want the Princess Panties” a good looking lady walked around the corner…she must have thought that I was some nutjob.
My daughters hate it when I shop with them. There has never been a good time had.
my dad was never home so know funny story but would love to see this movie!

My Dad thinks shopping is a trip to another country that requires a passport.
My dad thinks that he needs to shop at only one store – the dollar store! He comes home with things like loofahs that he thinks will look good as decor in the bathroom. He grew up during the Depression so he has always liked a good bargain.
My dad and I went shopping once and we heard some lady say Wanda? and Wanda replied I hear you but I can’t see you. We thought it was so funny and everytime we got seperated my dad would yell Wanda and I would yell back I hear you but I can’t see you.
Anytime I would get into a fight with my mom she would threaten shopping with dad
My dad hates shopping. When I was little he took me shopping for back to school shopping. To make a long story short, none of my clothes matched that year.
