Write a tactful letter to the mother of your friend apologizing for the disastrous events that occured the day you and your friend were assigned to do her shopping (180 words) bought wrong items because you lost the list of groceries

Dear Mrs. Smith,

I hope this letter finds you well. I wanted to reach out to you to express my sincerest apologies for the disastrous events that occurred when your son, John, and I were assigned to do the grocery shopping for you. Unfortunately, I made a mistake by misplacing the list of groceries, which led to us purchasing the wrong items.

I fully understand the inconvenience and frustration that this must have caused you, and for that, I am truly sorry. It was never my intention to cause any trouble or inconvenience for you, and I take full responsibility for the mistake that I made.

I am more than willing to make it up to you by either redoing the shopping trip with John or reimbursing you for the incorrect items that were purchased. Please let me know how I can rectify the situation and make amends for the oversight on my part.

Once again, please accept my heartfelt apologies for the mix-up, and I hope to make things right with you soon.

Sincerely,
[Your Name]
