Do you live near a Waitrose?

I don't like Waitrose food at all, it's poor quality, bread is always stale even the fruit and veg is poor or never stock what I like.
For me living near one would be detrimental. Their staff are unhelpful. I was in an unfamiliar store and I asked where the loose Fruit is and I got a look and she just pointed in the direction of the fruit section (not loose) Number 1 for customer services !!!
I go to Asda or Morrisons even the staff are friendlier. If its on the way home I go to Tesco or Sainsburys. I went to Lidl a few times found it surprising much better than Waitrose and M&S but Lidl is a bit out the way from where I live. If I had a choice of Adsa or Lidl right next to each other I would choose to go to both and sult the best products for me.
It seems for me the more expensive the food is the poorer quality it is and the staff are obnoxious so this is why I avoid Waitrose or M&S.0 -

Like all religions, the Faith of the Invisible Pink Unicorns is based upon both logic and faith. We have faith that they are pink; we logically know that they are invisible because we can't see them.0 -
We have one, such a pleasure and feels all middle class, not a screaming brat in sight. Seriously though it is a restful experience compared with heaving Tesco or Sainsburys.0

The whole Waitrose thing is a complete joke.Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..0
