    makes no difference this person driving for her shopping than a van doing it, except the reduction in traffic....also she may have some difficulty doing shopping - like I do...

    1 being that !!!!! park in disabled bays when they are perfectly healthy, so I cant get out my car Why can you not get out of your car because people are parked in disabled bays?

    2 being that I find sitting in my chair painful & generally shopping is quite a hard task for me... So get it delivered. What is your point here?

    The OP said Tesco was 5 minutes away - nothing about driving. It may be a 5 minute walk away perhaps?

    OP has a point, but thing is ASDA is so much cheaper, they just need to get to the no bag deliveries like tesco.

    Not that much cheaper.

    I think her point is she constantly likes to rant about being dissabled and how inconsiderate other people are towards her.

    Maybe her point is about able bodied people who park in disabled bays and she then has to park in normal spaces and therefore cant get out of her car into her chair!

    My local Tesco has around 30 disabled bays and they were all full the other day but everyone in the shop was able bodied and most of the cars didnt have disabled badges. Hows that for inconsiderate people.

    FYI - i am able bodied and still find it disgusting the amount of people who are also able bodied but think it is ok to use the disabled spaces.

    I was on a disabled badge for a while and I never used a chair, just a stick on the worst days and to look at me at the time you would just have thought I was obese (but I actually had massive water retention and anaemia as a result of treatment for growths on my liver). It was so bad my lungs were under pressure and I got short of breath very easily not every condition shows. Some people used to get ratty with me when they first saw me parking up though.

    This thread started out as Asda using too many bags, nothing to do with being able bodied or not :confused:
    So everyone parked in the dissabled bay's shouldn't have been there? and you checked all the cars for badges. You also went round a whole supermarket to see if there were any dissabled people in there!! lol
    Sorry but your post seems a tad unlikely

Hows that for inconsiderate people. Did you ask them all if they were able bodied or was this more of a casual survey you carried out? And the cars that did have blue badges - were they all being driven by able bodied people? I don't think that is allowed is it - better report all these able bodied people.

    FYI - i am able bodied and still find it disgusting the amount of people who are also able bodied but think it is ok to use the disabled spaces.

    I quite agree that spaces for those who require should not be used by people who don't
