to think it is too cold in the chilled food section of some supermarkets?

[Mintyy]

It is freezing in my Sainsburys! It can't be very energy efficient either. Do things really need to be kept that cold?

I always notice it most in M&S Food Halls. Nice during a hot Summer though!

Yes, it's freezing! Worse in summer when you go in in a tshirt and have to run around the chilled bit just grabbing things.

Bit of a contrary xpost

Yep, noticed our Tesco is always like the bloody arctic these days. Particularly hate going round the freezer section with my bloody headlights on full beam!

DH finds it highly amusing, of course.

Yes it is!

I went into Tesco and when I get to the frozen aisle you could hang coats on my nipples!

There is no reason for it. You don't open your fridge or freezer and experience such cold.

I prefer it to the shops in town that you swelter in when you go in wearing your coat

Maybe because there's lots and lots of freezers in a confined space being constantly opened and closed?

The clue is in the name.

When staff bring out cages of stock to work from, they only have a 20 minute window before the stuff needs to go back to the fridge/freezer.

The stuff on the cage needs to be kept as cold as possible on the shop floor while they work it.

Our Sainsbury's has recently introduced new freezers to reduce this problem (saves them money too I guess).

SPsMrLoverManSHABBA I'm assuming you don't have 20 freezers so maybe that's why your single, small domestic fridge/freezer isn't the same as dozens of large industrial units. Just a thought...

What clue is in what name?

Fan I have no defence. I'm just dumb

Just put a bloody cardigan on.

Sheesh, some people will moan about anything

I don't feel the cold particulalary but in our local Sainsburys I have been known to put on a winter coat in the summer and rush to a heating vent, sooooo cold! Much more so than other Sainsburys or other supermarkets that I have been to.

I wear a coat shopping and still feel the cold. If people didn't moan then MN would be dead

Same as when you go into a shop and they have their heating up so high that you break out into a sweat the minute you step in

Morrisons milk aisle. Brrrrrr! Nice when the weather is hot though!

YANBU it's bloody freezing! I never linger in those aisles I get in and out ASAP. Surely they would do better not having it quite so cold?!

I'm not MOANING. Sheesh.

I sen d husband down he is meatier than me the tescos i go is like the bloody artic although i was in an asda over Christmas and it was worse

M and S is the worst. It's not just cold ...

You are moaning, you're all moaning minnies who need to buy cardigans

but it is sooo cold Hiddenhome i hate being cold even with a cardi do you think we need thermals to go and get our frozen chips

Yes, it's bloody freezing! Bizarrely our local Waitrose isn't too bad, but the Sainburys is arctic!

You are moaning, you're all moaning minnies who need to buy cardigans

You smell of eggs and your bum is blue!

Agree, my sainsburys' chilled section is noticeably cooler than others'
