What on earth were they thinking?!

[PissTakeSubstitution]

Hardly ever tick ‘allow substitutions’ on my online shop because of past experience, however I didn’t want to risk no wine and I’m not too fussy.

AIBU to think this was a ridiculous substitution? There must have been 20+ different white wines in the price range I’d selected, yet for some unknown reason the person picking this shop decided to an Alcohol Free bottle was the closest match.

Worst still DH didn’t notice it was an alcohol free bottle and accepted the substitute

That's crazy! Which shop was it?

Last week, Morrisons substituted romaine lettuce for spring onions?? Why not send a different lettuce?!

My god that would annoy me.

Tesco. It feels personal for some reason…. Like they didn’t want me to have wine.

😂 Bastards.

Is that correct, £8 for alcohol free wine 😡 .

Definitely sounds like that picker was doing a bit of a fuck you. It must be a shit job to be fair but not cool!

I concur!

£3.25

@yoyo1234 the wine I ordered was £8, the AF one and the price they charged me was £3.25.

How many white wines must there have been on the shelf to substitute it for?

Seriously Tesco, literally any white wine with alcohol would have been fine.

Ask for a refund

You think that's bad? Someone on Gransnet once ordered panty liners and was sent cat litter tray liners instead! 😂

What's wrong with alcohol free wine?

Ring them up, ask for a refund.

What's right with it? 🤯

I had menopause shampoo and conditioner as a substitute last week.

I felt that was personal. (I'm mid 30s with a child under 1) 🤣🤣

You can still request a refund online I think, not that it helps with the wine levels now.

I'd be livid, get your money back, there's no way anyone (customer) would check closely to see if it's alcohol free, I mean you'd just bloody assume.
I've had ordinary wheat pasta sent as a substitute for gluten free pasta !!!

It doesn’t have alcohol in it.

Nothing if that’s what you order.

I ordered a 12.5% bottle. It’s Saturday night. I wanted a bottle of white wine. With alcohol.

They are passively aggressively commenting on your purchase history 🍷

They might have thought the wine you chose was so shit it must be for cooking so it wouldn't matter

Who voted YABU?!

I'm imagining the picker cackling now, that's her Saturday night ruined!

I don't drink alcohol

And I don't drink AF wine either. It's not good.

Everything!! Cannot wait 2 months to go till I can have a merlot :) vommy pregnancy not been helped by how rank alcohol free wine is!
