Unusual purchases

The bloke in front of me in the queue at the tesco checkout had five bottles of Golden Syrup and nothing else.

What unusual purchases, be they a single item in bulk or interesting combinations (e.g. cucumber/personal lubricant or meat cleaver/bin liners/spade) have you encountered?
