An upside down pineapple means more than just summer fruity vibes

George, the supermarket's in-house fashion label, launched the Black Pineapple Print Halter Cami Top as part of its SS25 collection.
Priced at £7, the patterned vest comes in sizes eight to 24.
Shoppers can also bag the matching shorts for £9 - which feature the pineapple print too.
A pineapple print can look pretty innocent on clothing and gives a fruity, summery vibe.
But flip the fruit on its head, and it takes on a whole new meaning.
An upside-down pineapple — worn on clothing, a sticker on your door or pushed around in your shopping trolley is considered as a subtle signal that someone is a swinger or looking for a swinger party.
Indeed, a 'definition' on Urban Dictionary reads: "A pineapple is turned upside down when a person is in search of a swinger party.
"Originally it was turned up side down in the individual's shopping cart.
"But pineapple popularity has made it on clothes and other items. Swingers use this symbol to identify each other in public."
So safe to say that shopper Nicole, from Scotland, was stunned when she spotted the cheeky detail on the Asda top - and decided against buying it.
'I only went in for cheese!' shopper admits as she's wowed by new Asda arrivals, including the 'perfect holiday co-ord'
And she flocked to social media to share the funny find with others, leaving many in fits of laughter.
She joked: "Nearly picked up this cute top in Asda until I noticed this.
"IYKYK. George At Asda cute top… not sure about the upside down pineapples though.
"I'm just imaging all the people walking around with no clue of the meaning."
Her TikTok post quickly racked up more than 100,000 views with people just as amused by her find.
One cried: "Me too! Had the shorts and top in my hand then realised."
A second said: "Omg even my 82 year old mum knows this."
"I saw it too and then saw the pineapples", chimed in a third.
A fourth joked: "Big up to Asda for their inclusivity."
Meanwhile, a fifth wrote: "Omg i was going to go back for this to wear for a funeral, i never noticed the pineapple, it's a definite NO now."
Asda's pineapple top isn't the only cheap buy that's had shoppers in stitches this week.
One bargain hunter was recently browsing her local Aldi store, when she found the brand new Crofton Worktop Saver in the middle aisle with a funny spelling error.
Posting on Aldi UK Shoppers, a private Facebook group with 339,200 members, Asiyah uploaded a picture of the £2.99 heat resistant kitchen buy, which can be found in Aldi stores nationwide.
Alongside her post, Asiyah shared a laughing face emoji and wrote: 'Anyone spot the error'.
Many Facebook users noticed and pointed out the very "awkward" and "funny" error.
The mistake in question? Rather than reading 'Liquid Conversions', the Worktop Saver, which will save you from using Google for handy conversions, actually read 'Liquid Conversations'.
