    Have you ever went shopping and followed the online "pickers" I wouldn't let them near my food. They don't give a monkies about what they're picking
    I used to be a picker for them and at our store we were very careful about what we picked, it goes along the line if you wouldnt buy it in the condition its in they dont pick especially fruit and veg, very often I wouldnt pick the bananas because of this rule and you cant substitute anything else for them. We also had to be careful about what and how much was substitute and see if the customer wanted anything instead. They start picking at 6am and its very hard to do as the shop gets more and more customers, trying to stay out of the way was for me a nightmare. The verbal abuse from customers was something we had to cope with on a daily basis, needless to say I no longer do this job. I think the older you are the more aware one is of what a customer wants when picking.
    The best thing to do if you are unhappy about any of your shopping when delivered is to complain.

      I wanted my normal 200g of their coffee, but they only had 100g jars online.
      We have a system called Agresso for ordering stuff at work. I re-named it Aggressive, because that's what it makes me. Similar problem and Gawd help ya if you type something in plural! I don't bother with any of the online supermarkets, now. Even Ocado was 1.5hrs late when I ordered from them last (a year ago). It was delivered at 10:45 pm!

        I use plain yoghurt in Muffins & Smoothies, both can be frozen. The muffin base i use is in Rachel Allen's book.

            Oh, I know how it is, trust me, that wasn't a finger wave at you. One time I thought I had ordered 2 chilies. Not quite, I had ordered 2 KILOS of chilies!! I decided not to complain as it was my fault for not checking the units. I froze a bunch and gave away a bunch on Freecycle.

            But for those of you who have troubles with the Tesco website, have you tried using www.mysupermarket.com? It's a shopping comparison website that compares prices between Asda, Tesco, Sainsburys and Ocado/Waitrose. I find the site a little easier to use than the actual supermarket's websites and so normally shop from there even when I know where I want to buy from already. They have the latest current offers listed as well, so you aren't missing anything if you shop via their site.

              I once had 2 carrier bags full of bananas come with my shopping, cost a fortune. Must have clicked 6 kilos instead of 6 bananas... good job we like bananas! My mum had some, and me nan, and my aunt.....

                Chooks love it! Shame you have none TS!

                PS Try it on the Parrot..............although he'd need to be some sized parrot to eat 8 litres of it! Probably need a bit more than sandpaper on the bottom of the cage as well!

                  Parrot loves yogurt actually - and porridge. He thinks he's a People.

                  I emailed Tesco, and said I'd been a twit but ... I didn't mean to order all that yogurt. They refunded me immediately.

                    Am I the only person who keeps reading the title of this thread and wanting to add 'and a packet of crisps' ? I never even watched the blummin' programme either!

                      You can make a very nice sour-dough type bread with it

                          Frozen yoghurt is so yummy, don't know if you just freeze as is though or whisk with some fruit first.
