Report written by Madhan
I was excited about my first mission and it was a grocery run which I'm super familiar with(I thought so).
So I went to Ms.N's place and got confused with the building no and flat no and knocked on the wrong door. A lovely grandma opened the door and patiently explained where and how to go.
This time after knocking on the correct door, Mrs. N opened the door with the grocery list ready in her hand. The list was written in pencil. She then explained that she lost her pen and the grocery list has a ball-point pen added at the end.
Got myself clarified with the specific brands/types that would be needed and what are the alternatives if they aren't there. When exiting the flat I was searching for the exit button for quite some time as the door was an automatic one.
Went to Sainsbury local and was searching every aisle and I couldn't find a match for the exact items that I would need. Got a few and then walked to Co-op and I realized that I should have started my shopping there. Luckily the trip to Sainsbury was worth it as tomatoes were not in the co-op and I had already bought them from Sainsbury's.
I couldn't find the Onken Yoghurt in any of the supermarkets nearby. Found the specific Turmeric(100gm) in a News and Wine shop by accident. Took me 40 mins to finish the shopping by that time. As I was nearing Ms. N's flat I realized that I forgot to buy the pen that she asked for.
Ms.N asked me to put the grocery bag on a table as she got vaccinated the day before and couldn't lift heavy items.

Well done Madhan 👏 40 minutes for your first attempt for Ms N's is great, assuming you've been walking! I'm surprised you didn't get Onken in that Co-Op (sometimes it hides at a bottom shelf of the fridge) - I need to update my iterinary next time I'll visit Ms N 😉 First one of many successful missions for you! 😁

Well done Madhan! Welcome to the Mission Runner's club 😃 You'll need to sign up next week too to finally deliver that pen to Ms N

Thanks all. Only flavoured Onken yoghurts were available. The plain set yoghurt was out of stock that day.
