A New York supermarket has hit the nail on the head by creating an aisle that’s filled with just ‘man stuff’, making it easier to find the groceries you actually need.
You won’t find any tampons, laxatives or other embarrassing items (embarrassing for men to buy) in the man aisle of the Westside Market in Manhattan. There’s nothing but man stuff, which includes beer, condoms, beef jerky and razors. Sounds like the perfect aisle for JOE…
According to store owner George Zoitas, it was initially just a joke. “We were tossing around an idea about maybe making a man section with everything a man would need, whatever men buy.”
George went on to say that in his experience, men generally don’t like having to wander around a supermarket and instead prefer to pop in and out as quickly as possible without the need for a list. In our experience, he’s completely right.
Andy Huber, 23, of Harlem, told the New York Post: “I don’t like to spend much time in the grocery store, so having this aisle makes things much easier for me.”
The idea has caught on like wildfire and now other grocery stores are following suit. Would you like to see a man isle in your local Tesco or Superquinn? Of course you would.
