To be really annoyed with Sainsburys?

[wonderstuff]

They sent me a tea towel in the post today. I didn’t ask them too. I neither need or want it. It’s cotton, made in China and is hand wash only. I went on twitter to enquire as to the ethical sourcing of it and whether I could return it to store and they wanted photos? How many tea towel mail shots are they sending that they need a photo? I try to shop ethically and only buy what I need, this got me so cross today!

Maybe an anger management workshop wouldn't go a miss... or think about if there isn't another issue in your life that is making you cross.

Just pop the tea towel to your local charity shop and it could be win win for the charity and the person who wants it.

Is a free tea towel worth getting 'really annoyed' about?

I really dislike unwanted crap being foisted onto me, so this would annoy me too. Can you get them to flag you for not receiving free stuff in the post?

OP has one, virtue signalling 😂

It's a tea towel. Not a used condom. Life is too short to get upset about such things.

I'm sure you can find use for it. It's an odd think to get so worked up about.

I love freebies and and jealous of your tea towel !

It gets better.

check out the OP’s history…. AHe talks about her Disney holiday in Florida, a wedding in the SA, her husband flying back from Amsterdam…. It would seem the OP’s stance on this tea towel is rather at odds with her stance on air travel!

I would think it would shrink if machine washed so no big deal, everyone uses tea towels, what’s the problem 🤷🏻‍♀️

🤣 So environmentally minded

It's not great though. Sainsbury's talk about their plans to be carbon neutral and then do something like this.

It’s get worse…. Florida Disney land, Holland, South of France!

We like donations of tea towels in our charity shop. Not for selling, but for using in the shop for polishing glassware after washing, or wiping things down. Really useful.

A hand wash only tea towel! How absurd.

You put all your rubbish in your general waste bin? Does it all fit?? Ours only gets collected once every two weeks, there's no way I could fit two weeks worth of rubbish in there. If we didn't separate the recycling/ food waste it would be overflowing

Sorry, that was supposed to be a reply to @YellowTreeHouse

We have a tea towel. And bizarrely a chocolate orange from a local church!

^^^ this! Where's mine? Grrrrr

I love a freebie, where's mine!

I’d happily have it. My tea towels are manky things. If they sent it my way I’d have been delighted. What

Yes @Ramble0n I humbly request to become a member of the tea towel conservation society ! Some of my late MIL’s tea towels must be forty years old. Anyone else want to join?

Nice work @Feef83 ! I think the OP has disappeared to do a quick name change and disappear backwards into the hedge Homer style.

Another one here who spends a fortune in Sainsburys. Where's my tea towel?

Love a souvenir tea towel ☺️

I've had about 5 pairs of bamboo socks from BAM this year. Love em.

I love the retro design ones with onions, radishes,carrots etc printed on them - nowadays seems to be only ‘sausage’ dogs on them

I was sent a random flannel from RBS a few years back. Then they shut down my local branch, so be warned!
