Tesco no beans

Becles

I once ordered a bottle of lemon juice to make a lemon cake with, and it was substituted for lemon toilet cleaner

I just made a plain sponge though, not a toilet cleaner cake :rotfl:

It must be a pretty boring job, picking other people's shopping. They probably get bored and substitute stuff for a laugh

If I were working at 6am, the last thing on my mind would be having a laugh.

Perhaps the pickers are half asleep?

My asda is great for substitutes i always get the more expensive option if what i want is unavailable and they price match it so you never pay more than your original option.

Tesco on the other hand :rotfl: couldn't find a substitute for toilet roll

Substitutions drive me nuts - one driver dumped all my stuff in the middle of the road (yes, the actual road where actual cars drive) and fled. The substitutions added around £30 to the bill as well. :mad:

With Tesco I found that stating 'no substitutes', pleading, begging and ringing would have no effect whatsoever.

I now get my home deliveries from Sainsbury who are lovely.

Oh and in the spirit of venting do you think i should ask for loads of compensation !

Absolutely!

Only one problem... they're just going to say, "Sorry, we can't pay compensation... we haven't got a bean. :rotfl::rotfl:

Sorry, but I just had to.

untick 'substitute'.

Thats what I do and I dont get any subs now.

If you dont know where it is, its on the checkout page at the bottom on the left.

Asda is good for not charging the extra for substitutions where as Tesco do charge and it can add up.

When I queried the Wotsits for Persil, customer services said the system recognised they had no stock and picked a replacement so the picker would have just gone off the computer generated list - not sure if she was just saying that though to get the picker off the hook.

My best substituions were a turnip in place of a bag of salad, ribena replaced with cherry brandy and a 6kg frozen turkey in place of a bag of oven chips!!!!

Didn't charge me extra for the turkey, even though it cost £16 more than the chips!
