Morrisons - Praise

Not the biggest of praises, but I wanted to mention a kind act from Morrisons.
I'm a first primary school teacher and for an end of term project for my year 2 class, we are creating a healthy salad picnic on one of our last days - therefore needing 38 small salad containers. Cue me awkwardly asking a shop assistant in Morrisons if we could purchase the containers from their salad bar. Two minutes later the manager appeared, very kindly stating that I could have 50 for free, as long as I don't shop in Asda
(which I don't anyway).
Although a small gesture from a large supermarket chain, I was very appreciative and it shows that large compainies (or rather their employees) can have a heart.
I will be making more of an effort to shop in there from now on.
Thank you Morrisons, my class are now sure to have a happy and healthy end of year treat. :T

I can bear pain myself, he said softly, but I couldna bear yours. That would take more strength than I have -

Last year our nursery was short on vouchers for the "Lets Grow" promotion (think that was it).
It had finished, but someone went and got me the number of tokens that were needed.0 -
Good work Morrisons - hope your class had a lovely picnic too!

A picnic in this weather? Good luck for that.There's a storm coming, Mr Johnson. You and your friends better batten down the hatches, because when it hits, you're all gonna wonder how you ever thought you could live so large and leave so little for the rest of us.0
