Such a strange combination of items, who is buying mayo on the black market?

They are though? The treat mayos like Best Foods or Japanese style mayo are priced so high they are unaffordable.

Similarly mid range shampoo is okay if it's on special, but most of the nice shampoos in the supermarket cost at least as much as a kilo of cheese.

The really cheap shampoo at Pak n Save makes your hair all break after a while using it. I figured out it's probably because it uses the wrong kind of dimethicone, creating an impermeable layer on the hair shaft which dries it out, making it brittle.
