Hmm, what's this? Milk and bread are on the list, but... a life-sized cutout of a celebrity? That's not your typical grocery item, but it seems that Tesco, a popular supermarket chain, has recently launched a rather unusual range of cardboard cutouts featuring A-list celebrities.
For the price of £38.99 each, customers can purchase life-sized stand-ins of their favorite actors, singers, and even animated characters. The selection includes some surprising choices, such as a range of Tory politicians like Theresa May and Matt Hancock, as well as left-leaning options like Jeremy Corbyn. But that's not all - if politics isn't your thing, you can also find cutouts of musicians like Matty Healy from The 1975, or even Taylor Swift's exes Tom Hiddleston and Jake Gyllenhaal.
It seems that Tesco has a cutout for almost every niche celebrity fan out there. Want a cardboard version of Annalena Baerbock, the German Federal Minister for Foreign Affairs? Tesco's got you covered. They even have one of the famous playwright William Shakespeare.
People on social media were quick to share their reactions to these unexpected products, with some finding it amusing and others simply confused. One user joked about adding a life-sized cutout of Theresa May to their Tesco shopping list, while another wondered who would need a Yungblud cutout for their weekly shop.
But this isn't the only strange cardboard cutout story making headlines this week. Actor Andrew Garfield showed up to the UK premiere of the movie We Live In Time with a cutout of his co-star Florence Pugh, as she couldn't attend due to scheduling conflicts. Maybe he picked it up from Tesco?
These cutouts are available on Tesco's marketplace, sold by Partyrama, and are delivered separately from a standard food shop. According to their website, all Tesco Marketplace products are sold and delivered by trusted partners, while groceries are sold and delivered by Tesco themselves. So even if you order both at the same time, they will arrive separately.
It may seem odd, but for some people, a life-sized cardboard cutout of their favorite celebrity may just be an essential part of their big shop. Who knew you could find such unique items at the supermarket?
