LOL on line Grocery shopping
my wife logged into Morrisions web site and was umpteen thousand in the queue. Her turn came but she was a bit distracted, took too long and web site sent her to the back of the queue. Now again umpteen thousand before her she gets to first place, gets distracted, I called her for dinner... she has again missed her place in the queue.
Now in the queue again and I have suggested she set the timer to remind her. macafee2 |

Ring local smaller supermarket chains ; many are starting to do home deliveries. We got a delivery yesterday 1.5 hrs after placing a telephone order.

We are expecting a delivery tonight between 8 and 10 for an order made 3 weeks ago. Hopefully more delivery slots are becoming available

Our freezer was looking empty but we have managed to stock it up. Not had everything on the orders but not missing enough to worry. macafee2 |

Try local wholesalers. Lots are short on trade and doing click and collect for the public. I am so scared of shopping if I can get someone to also deliver pet food I am going to use them!

Received our first ever home delivery of food on Friday, ordered about 3 weeks ago, probably 30% of what we ordered wasn't available, at least the biscuits arrived safely Cant say I'm a fan of home delivery shopping, although I can see those who may benefit from it.

wife cancelled the one on the 10th and went with another company for the 14th, they have also opened up slots for a couple of weeks ahead so she booked 21st as well.
I think she has been getting a bit stressed and is now a lot calmer. macafee2 |

We go shopping on holiday and I sometimes go for a few bits at home but hate queuing to pay. If I go when at home I will normally buy a hot cooked chicken and a French stick or bloomer and a few items for a recipe to try macafee2 |
