I made a trade using grocery shopping!


FAILED

Before I start, credit to AJ Green for snowballing this with his rat trade. Another thing, I’m going on holiday for a 3 days without my phone, so this will be the last you will hear from me for a couple of days. Hopefully I get close to 100 followers and voted on the top 50 current fanspo users.

I went down to Woolies to get some stuff for this holiday (Coles better but who cares) and I decided to do this while I was there. This may get confusing, but here goes nothing.


Step 1 - Teams

In order to get teams, I used the total items bought for the western conference. That ended up being 12 items, so I took the 12th team in the west, being the blazers. To get the east, I took out all the discounted items, so I was left with 7 items, getting me the magic for the trade.


Step 2 - Players

I used the Aisles that I went into to get my players. I went into aisles 5,6,7,10,11 and 14, giving me the players. They were then sorted by contracts. However, I still had to decide what teams they were on. I used the side of the aisles that I grabbed the product from, if I grabbed for example a packet of chips from the right side, it would mean that that aisle/player goes to the east - I said it would be confusing.

This made the Magic give up John Issac and Wendell Carter, While the blazers gave up Timelord, Kris Murray, Blake Wesley and Ryan Rupert.


Step 3 - Picks

The final step, I used the total price to decide what picks would be used. For the Magic, I used the dollars, which was $41. Even numbers are Seconds, Odd are firsts, which made the magic give up a first and a second. For the blazers i used the decimals, that gave me the same as it was 70c.

To decide the year of the picks, I used the money I saved from rewards to get the picks for both teams. I saved $6.20, so the magic give up a 2026 First and a 2032 Second. I flipped this for the blazers, so they give up a 2026 Second and a 2032 First.

This took quite a while, so please like, flame and quote flame this to get as many people as possible to see this. Drop a follow on this account along with my old one, as I’m trying to get to 100 on both accounts.

Most importantly, give me your thoughts on this trade and how my shopping went at building an NBA team.
