It is never a good time to go to Mercadona, because we will always find a lot of people and the odd queue. But the buyers of this supermarket chain have no choice but to make their purchases when they can, taking into account household chores, training hours or working hours.
Some are not used to going at certain hours, because they just don’t get it right. However, there is always a first time. This has been the case of a TikTok user who decided to go to Mercadona first thing in the morning, even before the doors opened to the public.
When going to the supermarket, this user found a long queue. All customers were ready with their shopping carts or baskets. And they expected the same thing, that the staff would give them access to start collecting the necessary products.
To this young man’s surprise, most of them had something in common: older men and few middle-aged or adolescents. His experience did not disappoint: “Curious experience,” he wrote on his TikTok profile.
According to the responses of other users of the social network, this influx is usually the most common. The older ones are the ones who get up early to do the shopping. “I think they should give bread to the first twenty,” jokes one. “I’m afraid of getting older and that time will come,” added another. “Now I understand why I never find anything,” says another user.
