JD Sports stuff keeps getting "lost in transit".
Not ordering from them again. "

So that's why the good stuff is always gone by the time I get there. |

A big one? A family member has had £350 of JD Sports clothes get lost in transit, and no refund before Christmas.
Fuck JD Sports! |

I like to see the stuff I will eat and I fucking well hate substitutions."
Someone I know had garlic as a substitute for biscuits on the older receipt, but the biscuits turned up. |

I received a parcel the other day, and they left it in our paper recycling box, which we never use. If they hadn’t left a note, I’d never have found it. In fact there were two parcels in there. The one I was expecting and one for a neighbour, dated August 2021(!)

"I got a frozen vegan joint . Looks fookin' horrible.
Why did you buy it Granny?
Fortnum and Mason I think ....... "
Ah yes, those two evil cads can make you buy anything.
Hopefully looks are deceiving. Vegan joint doesn't sound promising though. |

I just dis my Xmas food shop too Crumpster.
Whilst waiting for the bus back from my booster jab I popped in Heron and got a loaf of bread, some utterly butterly, pot noodle, pack of 3 tins of beans and some brown sauce.
Done.
Truly spoiling myself this year. |

Not found a good cheese replacement yet....... no nutrition, soap like texture , musty taste , no melting power..... burns well.
I'm getting used to it not after 5 years. |

Deliveries by Royal mail have been hit and miss. A 48hr delivery took nearly a full week for me. I found the supermarkets very busy yesterday, in fact too busy in one for me to stay and not just for safety, just don't like shopping in those conditions generally. Had a couple of grocery deliveries and had to complain about the condition of few items. Just the usual, expiry dates that are either today or tomorrow despite notes left for longer dates, poor quality of fruit that looked as if it had been left on the shelf for a month and two packs of what should have been sealed meat open so there was no way I would use, not to mention some strange substitutions and unavailable items. It always feels to me that the pickers in supermarkets try to flog the poor quality stuff to online or ckick and collect customers and pick items with the shortest expiry dates as if someone would eat all that stuff in one go on date of delivery or next. They don't seem to take any note of the notes left. The only positive thing is that they do refund if you can bother to call them and complain although sometimes I can't be bothered to be honest.
Oops, this did feel quite cathartic getting it of my chest so to speak |

No Problem ........
Breakfast : Cinammon sprinkled beans on toast.
Dinner: Beans with bread stuffing on top ..... nice holly decoration.
Tea...... Bean crush with a crouton topper served on a ketchup swirl.
Supper.... FART on a stick. |

Better out than in as they say, although I am sure there will be other views on that too. |
