Isn't delivery an option in this case?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Believe me it's often the only option I have and it has a whole host of problems. Things sometimes aren't in stock and you get dumb substitutions or no substitution at all - which means I still need to go and pick up whatever I'm missing or make do without.

For fresh produce, it's entirely random if I get decent selection or bruised up leftovers. If I want baked potatoes I have no way of picking them myself and end up with crappy tiny things unless I buy the more expensive explicit "jacket potatoes".

It's a nightmare.
