As I was walking around Tesco looking hangers I asked a member of staff.
She happily informed me that if I give her a minute she would go out back and get me some.
For free as the ones that are used in shop are put in the bin.
So I got 22 free.
And I was going to play £6 for 18.  |

I'm not surprised they gave them away free, the supermarket I work in does this too.
What does surprise me is that they throw away any that are unwanted - ours get recycled and made into new hangers.
We had a lady from the local women's aid service come into store last week wanting several boxes of hangers for their service users. I was shocked by how rude she was when told we didn't have them for her, her attitude was appalling because she'd had a wasted journey - if she'd phoned up to check first her time wouldn't have been wasted.
Our store donates a lot of stuff to the local women's aid service - toys with damaged packaging, clothing and toiletries, bedding etc. I sincerely hope their service users are treated better than their donors. |
