Thank you all for the replies.
I have sent in one application where the hours would be suitable - I do have some flexibility and can work weekends and holidays.
The shopping discount will be a bonus

I took a girlfriend to my local Tesco Metro recently,
It used to have to be at least the pictures with fish and chips on the way home in my day.0 -
With ASDA you have to complete your 12 week probationary period before they will issue you with a discount card, which is 10%. Apparently they do a day in the run up to Christmas where the discount is doubled to 20% on everything, good for Christmas presentsfionajbanana wrote: »I have also heard Asda have a limit on alcohol. Its not much - £100. So that's a couple cases of beer, 3 bottles of spirits and 9 bottles of wine on 3 for £10. I cannot tell you if this policy was in place and was it just in a year or December.
Haven't heard of this, but I can well believe it being implemented as a temporary measure during the festive period."Organic!! I grew up on Angel Delight..." - Dylan Moran0 -

In Dacouch's defence, it's only 'a girlfriend' not 'the/my girlfriend'. If he has a lot of girlfriends then the cost of the pictures and chippy soon stacks up. Supermarkets are much cheaper option.0 -

I think the booze limit is on the 20% staff discount day. That is before SD.
Sainsburys does have 10-12 weeks of 15%, which includes all of December.0 -
M&S is 20% on everything (even sale items and clearance marked food) and it only takes about 2 weeks for the card to arrive, no probation period.0
