I didn't order my shopping online last week or for this week as I had a sneaking feeling that it could get cancelled. Instead, I put on my big coat and walking boots and headed off to the local shops, local garage and a nearby netto. Today I went to the supermarket in the car and stocked up plus we have stuff in the freezer and plenty of heinz beans etc. Simple really if you think about it and no, I haven't panic bought, instead I have planned for another week of bad weather and got off my backside to get some shopping done!

In the bad snow of January 1982 we woke up to waist high snow and only a tin of carrots and a tin of tomatoes in the cupboard. (We were poor!) I walked the mile into town - being hauled from a snowdrift by a passing kind man - did enough shopping to last a few days when we hoped to be able to get the car out, and dragged what I'd bought home in a black bin bag. Hope I don't have to do that this time!

Thats fair enough curlyboy - it really isn't the fault of the delivery drivers, they have to make the decision on whether a road/area is too icy for driving safely but.... not everyone is capable of getting out and about in this weather. I rely on Tesco's delivery's as I have a disability that makes it impossible for me to walk on icy or snowy pavements (and the supermarkets often do not grit their car parks), I also shop online for my mum who's so frail that a slip on the ice would be catastrophic for her. I have to say that in the old days, before home deliveries, I really DON'T know how I would have managed (although in them days I had a DH who would have done it for me!). Anyway, my Tesco driver is a hero - he got through :A

My order for Thursday was cancelled which was fair enough as the weather here is awful. My order was deleted from my account and I wasn't happy as it took me ages to make my list as I was planning meals for the entire month. I called up CS who reinstated my order and booked me another slot for 4-6pm yesterday. It actually arrived at 2pm as they wanted all the orders delivered ASAP but they hadn't called to tell me. Nevermind though I was in at the time. I've sinced checked my account and there is a free delivery and a 10 pounds off of a £50 order evoucher added. I didn't even ask for that so I'm well pleased. TBH I wouldn't want a delivery driver to put himself in danger just so I can get my shopping.

you should not justify yourself to some stranger that just wants to tear you apart, whatever you say will be wrong to him

maybe it failed and is having repairs, what gives you the right to ask such questions anyway
