Sainsbury's Bagless Deliveries - REFUND
Sainsbury's recently changed their online delivery service to bagless deliveries only. I was unhappy with my first bagless delivery, which arrived in (what were in my opinion filthy) crates.

Why do companies use useless delivery companies?
I bought an item online. It was sent for next day delivery. I waited in all day yesterday (they don’t provide a delivery slot) and it didn’t arrive. I didn’t hear anything from the delivery company so I chased them this morning. No apology from them when they replied. They said the item was still at the depot and so…

Praise for Halfords !!!!
I know it's almost impossible to imagine (after all the negative reviews I've read about Halfords) ... but ... Last week one of my rear indicator lights stopped working.

We recently went on a 6-day cruise from New York to Bermuda. Due to hurricane Humberto, we were informed on embarkation that they would have to re-route the cruise to Charleston, South Carolina, and then head on to Bermuda for just one day, not the two intended.

CoOp food sacndal waste...
This morning at my local CoOp, I picked up 2 x packs of Pataks poppadums that were reduced. A household favourite, I was feeling quite smug with myself.
