... to ask if someone in Exeter would do me a favour?

This is a long shot, and a bit cheeky, but I'm a long way from Exeter and can't think of an alternative...

I have reserved an item of clothing in a shop in Exeter to replace DD2's ruined one. It is a favourite item ands was a Christmas present, Exeter is the only store in the country that has it in stock but sadly, I don't know anyone in Exeter to ask for help.

If you're a Mumsnetter in Exeter and wouldn't mind popping into a shop, collecting the top and posting it to me (at my cost), I would be extremely grateful.

Not in Exeter but couldn’t you pay the store to post it to you?

FooFighter99 · 13/03/2019 15:52

Why can't the shop post it to you??? Hmm

Just ask the shop. They will take payment by card over the phone.

SE13Mummy · 13/03/2019 15:56

The shop isn't able to post - they don't have that facility.

What shop in Exeter?

Tighnabruaich · 13/03/2019 15:59

The shop must post stuff - surely they go to the post office for stamps etc?

Malbecfan · 13/03/2019 16:02

Will PM you. I'm not in Exeter exactly (10 miles outside) but will be this weekend

SE13Mummy · 13/03/2019 16:05

The shop doesn't post stuff - things ordered online can be posted but those things are sent direct from a warehouse or something.

I have family in Exeter, pm me of you'd like to.

I live fairly near Exeter and shall be going there next Wednesday. If no other Mumsnetter can help sooner, then I may be able to.

It's not a North Face coat is it?

SE13Mummy · 13/03/2019 16:36

It's a t-shirt, definitely not a bulky coat!

Is your user name from the area in Liverpool ... if so I know it well Grin

ImaginaryFriends · 13/03/2019 16:47

Fazackerley
Sorry just realised it's not spelt the same as the area.

Fazackerley · 13/03/2019 16:47

Ha only because I had exactly the same thing with a north face coat - it was only in stock in Exeter! I drove there to get it - mad.

imaginary poor you Grin

KeyboardCat · 13/03/2019 19:00

I live in Exeter - which shop is it?

SE13Mummy · 15/03/2019 19:48

Thank you for all the PMs, Malbecfan has kindly offered to save the day for me.
