basement shopping

noun. rediscovering previously owned possessions with joy that is typically reserved for retail shopping. Often used in the context of items that were in storage in your parent's (or a parental figure's) basement, but can refer to the basements of friends or relatives. Frequently used for items that were packed and stored for a move. May also include toiletries, paper goods, liquor, or other trivial items liberated from said basement.

Jen decided to organize her spare bedroom closet and do some hard-core basement shopping.

Jess had way too much stuff in storage in her basement, so she invited Jen to do some basement shopping.

Corpse Shopping

The act of visiting the supermarket for "provisions" of the rigor-mortis variety. Useful when it comes to mothers day, for the blood which tends to congeal delicately and superfluously around the anal membrane.
According to maritime law, the crossbow closet must be purged of air before the corpse shopping is begun by Little Moe with the gimpy leg.

Corpse shopping shall be done only with a crizal lens wedged between your tear duct and occipital lobe.
