Waiting for Online Grocery Delivery - Bored

11 replies

PotterHead1985 · 30/08/2019 15:06

As the title says, waiting for my SuperValu delivery. Time slot is 3-5pm. Can't really do much else round the house whilst I wait as I won't hear the doorbell if it goes (plus I'm waiting on the washing up liquid and dishwasher tablets!!). So here I am bored stiff. Help!!!

I am also bored. I have grounded DS so we are all stuck inside and miserable. Wish I'd chosen a different punishment but his behaviour was truly terrible.

@potterhead, He turned up 35 minutes late , no phone call to say he was running late.
The 1st thing he said when he walked into the room was "why have you not got your laptop and the screen set up " ( amongst other things we had to run through a power point presentation )

I said it was set up 40 mins ago, in time for our meeting but goes into sleep mode after 30 mins of inactivity. >> STARE

@SamBeckett my slot was 3-5. Driver turned up at 5.20. Was not impressed.

Also dying to know what the above poster posted that was against the guidelines!!!

@PotterHead1985 I had a delivery arrive 20 mins late a few months ago I sent a polite to the shop ( tescos) and said if they are going to be late again please can they ring me and at least let me know .
I got a code sent to me that got me £4 of my next shop it may be worth you trying .

I am also very curious to know what the deleted post was ! its hardly a contentious issue this is is

Yes I might just do that. I also ordered two pastries. They delivered one but no mention that they only had one. And I ordered 750g of beef. I don't mind them being a little over in weight but they sent over a kilo. It's to feed two people!!!

Divide your beef up into manageable portions and freeze it.

I hate it when the Tesco shop is early because the only one of the local drivers that is ever early is always early and he's smarmy mcsmarmface.

Tesco have been pretty good when deliveries are late though.
