    I use Sainsburys because of free delivery Tues, Wed and Fri if we spend over £70. The good thing is quite often when we refuse substituted items, the refund is more than we paid for them.Oh, the best bit was last week when I got caught in traffic and saw the driver drive past me. I had to call CS to ask for a refund because we couldn't find a compatible alternative timeslot. They refunded £30 more than the original amount.Now that's money-saving!

    Do you know of anyone who delivers in Aberystwyth? I used to order stuff online at Iceland to be delivered to my student brother who lives at the top of the steep hill but they don't deliver anymore. :(

    Not that I know of - even Somerfield long since stopped their deliveries apparently - I'm just glad I'm living on the flat this year! Last year my OH lived in St Mary's Hall up a huuuuuuuuge hill I called Mount Doom as I had to lug my suitcase up it every time I visited :p Now i drive so no such problem... but he moved down hill :p

    Do all these online shops have the same offers as the "normal" shops?

    Yes. They pick up the goods from the shop and put them through tills just like you would.

    I had an ocado voucher and still, it was far too much money!

    I use Asda.

    Completely agree!! I've had 1 order with Ocado and although their bags are all different colours (orange for cupboard food/green for fridge etc.) which is very nice, by god it was expensive!

    I got our Christmas order from them because I was feeling generous, didn't spot many offers tbh.. husband nearly had heart attack at the prices. They've been e.mailing me every week since that order with £10 off next shop but I wouldn't go there again!
