SiberianHusky and Nellie77 wow I'm so glad I read your posts - had been contemplating using ASDA's delivery service as although my local store is really nice I hate supermarket shopping.
Ocado delivers in one hour slots, only time they've ever been late (including in snow) was very first delivery. Ocado beats Tesco prices - have only ever once gotten a voucher because they didn't. Very easy to go mad and buy too much amazing food though

I gave up with internet grocery shopping years ago...invariably weird substitutions and missing items but a delivery not turning up would be a nightmare! I hope you got compensation......
horribly wet and cold here today so nice warming curry with spicy potatoes was just the ticket.......
I am off to put money on the meter just in case we end up with the heating on later!:eek:Every Penny's a prisoner :T0 -
Today was # 14 for me. Ran out of soup so had a quorn and cheese wrap and some grapes.
We go to the pub on a Friday with work, and I have Saturday off work so that is it for me this week.0 -
