    Innocent smoothie pomegranate, blueberry and acai - NOT half price - the staff just looked at me when I asked about it - had it as one of my PYO too - what a waste!! Checked online when I came home & not on offer.
  • I went for the Innocent smoothies also, don't know when they changed this offer as it was on Thursday when I picked them for my PYO, luckily I checked before I set off today and noticed they had gone back up.

    A bit off topic...but

    I don't usually shop at Waitrose, but have been twice to collect some stuff ordered online from JL... and so bought some groceries and wine; amazed to be invited to review two items! A cheap Spanish plonk and some everyday potatoes; both of which had gently disappointed.

    Sad person that I am, I went online and said this; nothing harsh;

    " Disappointing; even for basic white plonk; OK, only a fiver, but didn't bear comparison with other similar offers from M&S, the Co-Op or Asda"

    to be told, by email a few days later that my review had been "moderated..."! Thus " Unfortunately (my review) didn't meet all our website guidelines, so we're afraid it can't be published."

    Wow- thin skinned or what? So I've re-posted a false, but good review of the same product just to see what happens?

    Discussion of price is not allowed in reviews on pretty much any site. If you had put

    " Disappointing; even for basic white; OK, but didn't bear comparison with other similar wines from other supermarkets"

    I've had other reviews not published on other sites where I said vague not worth £10 but of for £5 comments.

    What company would allow a review that directly names competitors in a favourable light? I think people just have to use their common sense!
