Here's mine: Milk & More 22/12 Organic beetroot missing, showing delivered, everything else turned up. Refund 2.10 needed. ASDA 22/12 Growing thyme unavailable Celeriac…

Tesco online groceries - any complaints, suggestions etc for improvement (to be forwarded to Tesco)
As a family, we've been
shopping online with Tesco for a long time now, and what I've learned is that
although they always claim to listen to customers to make the shopping
experience better, they actually don't. They just carry on as before with
existing systems, even though they admit they don't work. The idea of this…

Tesco adding items to order - they won't refund.
Hey everyone. Hoping for a bit of advice. I've searched forums and can see this is a reported issue (tesco claim it isnt) and I then screen recorded myself amending my shop to see items in my checkout email that I wouldn't ad. I noticed this a while ago, that random bits were getting delivered that I don't order. I'm a…

Should there be dual pricing in supermarkets?
For some time i've been noticing that the non-Clubcard pricing in Tesco has been inflated to make it seem that the Clubcard prices are offers. This has recently been confirmed in a Which? report and it seems that Sainsbury's have also been doing the same.…

Caramac's no more. Which discontinued sweets/choc would you bring back?
I'm sad to see Caramac is about to become a thing of the past, much like Fuse bars. What discontinued food and drink items would you bring back if you could? Bonus points if you remember how much they used to cost.

Beef Fillet

It is currently frozen and is probably twice the size it needs to be in order to serve its intended audience on Christmas Day. So my dilemmas are: 1. Should I invest in a butcher’s saw and cut it…

Milk Portions
Tesco has a net of five milk Lactofree portions for 75p but according to Trolley, no other supermarket sells milk portions of any kind. Checked Costco and they don't either. Found a company in Scotland which sells Irish whole milk portions from Lakeland Dairies, 120 x 12ml for 2.89 but delivery is 4.99. Amazon has a few…
