Before long home delivery will be gone...Uber just eats deliveroo will take over...Tesco Sainsbury's Morrisons will all go to these eventually due to the mark up that co op Asda and lots of small outlets are making by online sales using the above... example 20pk cigarettes 2 litre of cider in store pl rice of £16.24...using any of the on buy ordering systems is £23.24.... which is £2.99 delivery charge £1 to Uber deliveroo etc. Rest is profit who company who is selling to the customer...that's why online customers at McDonald's co op Asda will always get priority over people in store

Online food shopping was the only choice I had when I injured my wrist. It was very easy to over use the other arm.
Convenient. Efficient. Time saving.
This autumn I've thought about working from home - they've asked me several times. And always buy my food online.
Paradise. I will never leave my appartment.

Pisses me off when these deliveroo drivers take all the car park spaces up, park like complete twats and just generally get in every fuckers way.

If the service is offered I'm obviously going to use it. Most of the time you can get some cracking offers on Uber for groceries. Many times I've had "Spend £40 get £20 off" etc. if you are actually smart with your purchases you can easily save a bit.
Also in general, who the fuck is anyone to question what I buy and how I buy it?

I don't smoke but can you get cigarettes delivered from these shops?
See where Badgo was coming from in the lazy dept as some won't leave the house by choice.
I think was Thursdays I used to pop the week's company cheques into the bank in Crewe and was obviously dole or whatever day and I used to pop into Supercigs as they sold True Detective magazine and others I bought weekly . Was always women with pushchairs buying cartons of 200 cigs and scratch cards ..not once or twice, every week. I guess now the money is paid automatically and they can pick the phone up instead

Just been up to the local co-op to get some bits like normal people do. There were 5 staff in there all running around with baskets like Supermarket Sweep shopping for lazy c*nts who can’t be arsed to walk 5 minutes down the road for their stuff and absolutely nobody manning the tills. There was a queue of young Eastern European men with Deliveroo bags all slobbing around the tills getting angry because they were waiting for these Middle Aged/old women to do shopping for these parasites. It just seems wrong on every level. Oh and there was an alert that kept going off every few seconds, a female American voice saying “new order please” for the next selfish lazy arsed bastards. How did it come to this? Original Pirate Material You're listening to The Streets, lock down your aerial.

What the fuck are you playing at actually paying for anything in that Co-Op* anyway? Just walk out with anything you want like most of the local opiate dependants do 😅 *I'm assuming you're referring to Co-Op Hartshill I reckon Badgo eats the stuff in store . A pack of Quavers, some cous cous and a can of Estrella then reads the Daily Star to see what's on Telly and wanders out casually He can read?

This is a far more sophisticated conversation. However somebody will be along later to tell you you're doing it all wrong and give you their opinion on why they do it right. Twats.

How did it come to this? A blessing for some people who can't physically make it to the shops But if they physically cant get there its surely due to lack of exercise, so making them shop is like having physio, and before you know it the lazy feckless cunts will be better. Along similar lines I dont see the point in disabled parking right by the door, make it as far away as possible to give the idle twats some much needed exercise.🙉😏

How did it come to this? No idea to be honest. Seems a bit of a drive. I thought they would have done their big shop in Manchester.

Yeah. Ordering £10 worth of stuff because you can't be arsed to get out of your pyjamas is another thing 👍 I often do this if I really need something and I've been drinking (and as such not able to drive) or can't be arsed to walk to the shop (because I've been drinking). Can't see the problem with it really. Retailers offer the service and people use it - what's annoying about that? Prioritising online orders over actual living, breathing customers right there in the shop though is a different thing altogether (and one that fucks me off immensely). The ire should be directed at profit-hungry retailers asking store staff to do three jobs in one however, not the consumers taking advantage of an offered service. I bet your final delivered order is interesting, ( if you've been drinking). 😉

To be fair after reading the TV page, are rumours he was at home in front of the microwave at 2am waiting for Cheggers Plays Pop to come on

How did it come to this? Does the sign say "Co-op" or "Coop"? Here in Sweden it's "Coop" and from I've heard it's the same chain, just like Lidl appears in many countries. By tradition Coop is known to be where all the communists go shopping here. And you can pay a deposit to become a member and then get a discount on some groceries. Coop is owned by the members. But. The funny part is this: they have gone to be where my grandparents did all their shopping to the most expensive of all the grocery chains around here, and we have Lidl (which is from Germany), Hemköp and Willys (both use Axfood to buy from, so these chains have the same supply but Hemköp is somewhat more expensive) and Ica, who has the funniest tv ads and then Coop - the most expensive of them all.

The coop is s different brand Musik, I've relied on both in rural areas of Sweden and England. In fairness to both they often set up a shop where no one else can be bothered, for that reason they both deserve to be celebrated.

I mean in this economy, people doing the delivery have a job, the people putting orders together have a job…It’s a service offered, customers will use it.
I’ve used it before when I just haven’t had the time to stop by somewhere or whatever.

I buy my things from all I mentioned plus the local vegs and fruit store.

I’ve used it before when I just haven’t had the time to stop by somewhere or whatever. Call me old fashioned but I prefer to go into a convenience store and be served by an attentive shop assistant and not have staff getting in the way and a wall of young foreign blokes leaning over everything and all kinds of buzzers and alerts going off left, right and centre. A sign of the times of course but I don’t like it. Maybe these delivery companies could open up some places dedicated to online grocery shopping instead of ripping the heart out of the community

Did you go up the side stairs by the CO-OP by accident again ?

Do what he did and pick up crates from the back of the working men's club. Saves going the shops as much. Agree with a lot of what you're saying mind.
