Livid my Gordon's Gin is alcohol free

[wankywomble]

Dashed about yesterday doing the Christmas shopping and bought these by accident. I don't often drink but when I do I want a proper G&T!! So hard to tell the difference unless you're looking for it so now it's a dry Christmas for me

Here it is

Oh no! Do you have a spar locally? They are often open on Christmas Day and sell gin!

What? how much was it?

Oh no! That is rubbish. I would also be gutted if I'd bought that.

Does it taste anything like gin?

Is it even kept in the booze aisle? Wasn’t it with the seed lip pretentious overpriced stuff?
Also how much was it ?
I cannot believe how expensive this alcohol free gin is .

My corner shop is open for two hours in Christmas Day . It’s a premier one too not a random local shop Any near you? That or a service station?

Cross post!

YANBU - there should be a hyphen in 'alcohol-free' otherwise it is saying the alcohol is free.

The 0.0% does sort of imply there's no alcohol, though....

How on earth did you miss that?

It says alcohol free quite clearly, it’s not even miniscule.

Petrol station or corner shops often open. Deliveroo do grocery runs.

Have to agree I'm afraid, the large 0.0% is a bit of a clue...

If you’re in S Yorks, I’ll buy it off you! I’m on sober standby for work and could really do with a fake drink!

@phishy because it was on a shelf at the end of the booze isle and as I said I was rushing around having worked long longs hours leading up to Christmas

Corner shop near me is open until 6pm. Under new management, you know.

Yes it does have0% agreed. But it looks like a regular Gordon's bottle with silver label for Christmas!

Sorry @IbizaToTheNorfolkBroads but I'm in West Yorks. If it's any consolation I bet it tastes rubbish

Can't you drink all the other booze in the photo rather than having a dry day?

I only drink gin

That’s hilarious, check the wine too, it says NOT GRIGIO

I can see how you’d make that mistake in a hurry.
I’d be more pissed off at paying full gin price for something that wasn’t gin.

@SoniaFouler haha so it does, luckily for my husband it is not alcohol free

Get in the car/walk to the local shop. I know my local shop is open today for a few hours. Support your local shopkeeper and all that.

Time to lower your standards

End of a long Aussie Xmas day here and I'm full to the gills with gin, vodka, wine, beer and Bailey's. All is well with the world.

They are really good actually. I would give them a try, if I were you. I have drunk this a lot since getting pregnant.

Sure once upon a time I wanted to grab a bottle of (Dunnes Stores) rum but when I got home and looked at the label properly what had I picked up instead? Gin.

That is awful. I'm sorry for your loss.
