Men and shopping

So Friday night I'm cleaning like a madwoman, trying to make the place look decent for my guests, and I find I am missing a few things. I send Jason to Wal-Mart with the following list:

- 2 2000 flushes/lever 2000/whatever bleach toilet puck things
- 2 4-litre jugs of skim milk
- 1 jar mango chutney

AN HOUR later he comes back. Keep in mind that Wal-Mart is a mere 5 minutes down the road. This is what he brought with him

- 2 2000 flushes in BLUE, not bleach
- 2 4-litre jugs of 2% - yech
- 1 jar mango chutney

How, with a list, does a man come back with 2 out of three things wrong? Men are sooo not shoppers. I wanted bleach to try to clean the toilets a bit better, but he wants blue toilet water - laugh, fine. However, now I'm sitting here having to drink crappy 2% milk. I HATE 2%, like really, really, really. And I've only made it through one jug - sigh.

He also brought Tide, which we didn't need. Men.

So either motivation or stars are to blame then? Hmmm, can I re-align the heavens?
