To think there should be a company which delivers nibbles?

Am on 2nd glass of wine and really fancy something to munch on, but tomorrow is shopping day and our cupboards are bare of nibbles. Dh and I both over limit to drive. Shop not within walking distance.

I mean, you can order pizza, curry, Chinese - so why not a packet of cheesy Doritos and some chilli nuts eh?

Graze deliver healthy snacks, I have a box on a tuesday night so I can lounge around eating cashews watching holby.

we have a local alcohol delivery service that will also bring you pringles, doritos, mars bars etc. The only bother is there is a minimum order (so you have to get more wine, not just the snacks)

Healthy snacks? Healthy snacks?!?!?! WTF?

I want calories and fat - not flipping cashews! I bet they're unsalted too. Pah!

I know exactly what you mean Tafka. I want dips and I want them NOW.

Pre-children when I used to smoke substances that made you get the munchies I called taxis on more than one occasion to deliver rizlas, fags and snacks.

Ooh, that's a good idea saggy!

Dh is not keen, strangely.

Google is not being forthcoming on snack/booze delivery services in South Buckinghamshire.

When I was at university in Southampton, there was a company run by a student called 'Dr Booze'. He would deliver booze, nibbles, cigarettes, etc.., and if he didn't have them, he would pick them up along the way! It was great but surprisingly didn't work! Whenever I have had a few glasses of wine and realy fancy some crisps or sweets that aren't in the cupboard, I long for Dr Booze! I also remember that he even took payment in cannabis on one occasion! Not from me by the way! From someone who lived with my boyfriend!

I think that companies like that don't work as legitimate business ventures. Imagine trying to fill in your tax return on something like that!

when we were in Australia there were companies who'd deliver anything (as long as there was an open shop to get it from - and there usually was). they'd get take away from places that didn't do delivery, they'd bring you cigarettes, booze, snacks, tea bags, toilet roll - whatever you needed. they were basically a shopping service. I thought it was the absolute best idea ever. never come across it anywhere else.

I wonder if I could get a Tesco delivery slot for, like, the next hour or so?

this is why God invented teenagers who can drive - 'I will give you £87million if you get me some houmous' never fails
