(KGTV) - Did a grandmother accidentally buy a 30-pack of condoms instead of tea?

Yes.

76-year-old Rosemarie Riley from Britain says she forgot her glasses when she popped over to the store for some items.

She though she was grabbing a box of Yorkshire tea off the shelf. In reality, she picked up a jumbo 30-pack of Durex Thin Feel condoms costing more than $22.

When her husband pointed out the mistake, a mortified Rosemarie asked her granddaughter to return the condoms.

Rosemarie says she'll be wearing her glasses the next time she shops and wonders why the cashier didn't say anything when she made the purchase.
