Clowance

I was disappointed with my order. It arrived promptly, but the one thing that I had placed the order for - icing alphabet letters - was out of stock. I certainly wouldn't have bothered with the rest of it, why doesn't it tell you when somethings out of stock when you order so you can abort?

I've just ordered some of this - it would be rude not to at this price but has anyone any idea what on earth it is

There's a thread on approved food forum about this, what people have used ot for, so worth a look.

Sorry I don't know how to do multi quotes:o Buying with others, I'm hoping to sort out a buying circle & would place the order, pay for it with Paypal & then get the payment when people collected from me. I'm not sure if it will work but worth a try I think.
I wonder what the rules & regs are for selling food like this at car boots?
Re items not available, it may be worth phoning or emailing the office if you order again & saying that you ordered for a specific item & if that isn't available you want to cancel the whole order.
I've been really pleased with what I've ordered except the lucky box, think that we must have had siamese twins of boxes as mine had more or less the same.
The ryvitas are wonderful, & so plentiful. I would have loved some of the granary bread mix.

Hi,
Thanks for all the help and suggestions, this was for my niece who has just moved into her first place, and lives quite a way off from me. Gosh how I wish I knew someone local !

I rang AF and they said that as it was only a one off if I put it on the message they would look out for it and hopefully this will work.
They have no problem with how many account one person has, but PP get a bit atsy if it is not for your address, good thing really I suppose!

Made our 1st order this week and it arrived this morning , time from order to delivery , 4 days , good !
Everything as ordered and well packed , jars in bubble wrap etc.....
Only thing i would mention is read the size discription closely , we ordered 2 tins of celeriac shreds in vinegar thinking they were normal size tins , when they came they were 5 kilo tins !!!!!! mind you at 1p each !
Good job we like celeriac ! Still thats our fault not AP`s !
And there was loads of Stuff , may have to store in spare bedroom , lol

ordered tuesday evening, delivered Friday morning No damage or substitutions :A

Anyone else doing shop and scan? I sometimes wonder what they must think.

Ordered Tuesday evening, delivered early Friday morning. Big box of Tuc biscuits marked off as picked but not included. Rice substituted for a cheaper brand but still charged for expensive stuff
Answerphone message not yet replied to

Pleased with all the stuff though....... lots of tinned tomatoes :P

I would have though the pre-cooked rice will keep for ages anyway if unopened.
