M&S customers are a nuisance

[DamnAlabama]

I went into M&S Food today and every customer I came across was absolutely oblivious to anyone else in that store. It's like Percy Pigs over morals.

Oh no, I'm so sorry, how degrading for you! Are you still banned from Fortnum's after that ugly incident with the caviar? 😉😂

Couldn’t order the M&S best ever steak pie with my Ocado shop 💔😔

It must be a postcode lottery

It must! Plus I like their jacket potatoes with Cornish cheese because the salad that comes with it is lush.

Or how you behave yourself!

You’re kidding?! I’ve not been able to get hold of one for a while and was hoping it was just a stock issue. My favourite sweet treat 😒

And are too lazy to make a sandwich at home, preferring to buy over-priced sandwiches and coffees, then moan about the cost of living and the fact that we boomers are still breathing.

It’s always long queues at mine. I blame TikTok for making M&S matchas and pistachio butter viral (Pistachio butter is from the food hall)

😂

Ah. We have no such fancy bourgeois stuff at ours. That's why.

South coast. We have Sainsbury’s and Tesco almost opposite one another, M&S Food across the road from Sainsbury’s, a two minute walk from Tesco and Aldi and Lidl on opposite sides of a roundabout and dual carriageway a couple of minutes drive away.

There’s also B&M and Home Bargains.

Quite agree although it doesn't help that the layout of most of the shops (here in Glasgow anyway) is atrocious.

And it's mostly women - of all ages too.

I’m just eating my discounted Percy Pig and his chirping chicks.

You probably shouldn't go to ASDA OP

I tend to find that in any establishment that primarily attracts the over 60s. Our local theatres are dreadful for it. They always arrive late and push through half the row to get to their seats, repeat for the interval etc.

A fantastic time, really?!

How awful. Imagine reaching the age of 60 and wanting to go to public places.
Boomers! Stay at home!

I was really hoping that she had some new M& S food pairings to tell us about!

o is this the steak and chips poster?

What's all this about discontinued white mountain bars?!
I popped into my local store today to get my daughter a pink chocolate Percy Easter egg. I was informed that they are not doing anything with pink chocolate this year, nor do they have any banoffee hot cross buns. Combine all this with the discontinued black forest individual trifles and the future is looking extremely bleak.
( I'm under 60 and charm personified btw).

Do you remember when having an M&S in an area was a sign that it was a good place to live. If the area had an M&S that closed down it indicated that the area was going downhill.

I once went into a Waitrose where one of the staff members started to go absolutely doolally. She was kind of spinning around and talking gibberish. I thought she was taking the P at first until she was gently escorted from the shop floor by a colleague. Sad really. I wonder what the customer said/did to push her over the edge.

You are Alan Bennett and I claim my £200.

I never see anyone else shopping in our nearest Morrison's yet there's always queues for the checkouts and the 3 working self checkouts.

I'm really sorry to hear this, OP, because the other customers speak very highly of you.
