I believe Tommy's a frequent user.
Whether he knows anything about Tesco I'm not sure. |
|
By:
& make sure you choose the option not to substitute the cheap offers as their usual trick is to say they are out of stock and replace them with the more expensive items ;)

they come off the bill when its delivered
its because you may have picked an offer that ends today, but if you get ir delivered tomorow the offer would have finished dont worry i order online all the time and never had any problems, just check the date the offer ends if you are using them |

got yer cheers, i was getting myself a bit wound up just before
|

By:
seen this scam used by morrissons as weel though on the old 2 for £3
|
|
By:
I can confirm all the above is true.
The amount will be deducted on your deliverey invoice. I'm a big user of Tesco Online and think its's a brilliant service. |

I will give Sparkmaster a 'lol', even if no-one else will.

ahhhhh....sweet lol.....

watch out for near to sell by dates
|

By:
I always post on individual perishable goods: 'longest sell by please' and have no problem, Coach.
|
|
By:
You can leave a note, with any item you order. It's very useful, eg size of carrots, whiteness of pickled onions and the above.
|
|
By:
They must love you...
|
|
By:
"Oh, here's one from Mr Fecking off-white pickled onions!"
|
|
By:
They do, Sparkster!
They even gave me their own personal 'inner sanctum' dot com telephone number! |
|
By:
is it a telephone number or a dot com?
|
|
By:
No, very white, smallish, pickled onions, thanks.
! |
|
By:
They call the online service 'dot com' at Longton.
I can 'phone straight through to them about any queries rather than go through the national 'phone number helpline. They're brilliant in there (Longton) and always do me proud with any problem I've ever had. |
|
By:
Surely pickled onions...I mean...you're buying a jar, they don't come loose. Do you imagine they look in all the jars of the brand you've ordered and try to work which has the smallest and whitest?
|
|
By:
Well, that's what I do!
So far, it looks like they do too! |
|
By:
As I said earlier, it's a brilliant service.
|
|
By:
- and I've been using them for about 5 and a half years now.
|
|
By:
Funnily enough, I had an e-mail earlier asking me to take part in a survey about their online service.
I gave them top marks on every category. |
|
By:
"Alright lads, another order. It's come over the phone from Mr Toes. Definitely better we gave him the number as last time he tried to order online we lost aisles 7-10. Anyway, he wants a 700g box of Kellogg's cornflakes.............oh wait there's some more, he wants the edges to br crinkly but not THAT crinkly"
"Get opening them boxes boys" |

sounds OK, but nothing beats going round the supermarket in person and being able to peep down womens cleavages while theyre bending over to select fruit the veg .

Very funny Sparky!
Coach, I detest shopping and the local Tesco store to me wouldn't be able to offer even half the range of the goods I can get online. The time spent trawling along the aisles, loading the goods on the conveyor belt, packing the shopping, loading it into a taxi, then unloading it and unpacking it, would, I reckon, take me about a 4 hour trip and £9 taxi charge. With the online site, I can get fresher produce that I'd never get at the local store, far more selection, and all I have to do is put it away. Saving me all those hours and at the very least, £3 (out of the £9) even if I order a delivery at the dearest slot. Most of the time, it only costs about £3.50. It's just the best thing I've ever done online. |
|
By:
Not better than stoketwinks.com surely?
|
|
By:
I work in a dotcom department if you have any questions :)
|
|
By:
Tommy, supermarkets can be a bit of a menace when time is against you .
I like to get out of the house once every blue moon though :D |
|
By:
Joe, that's a very good point.
With the online site you can go straight to your 'favourites' so avoid overspending on unnecessary items you might be tempted by when you're walking around a shop. Of course, you can still access special offers, but if you don't want to, you don't have to. I really can't praise the service highly enough. |
|
By:
Good point Coach!
But you probably wouldn't want to bother with Tesco Hanley! |
|
By:
dunno who in their right mind would do their shopping with everyone else at the supermarket.
|
|
By:
One thing that happens alot which is frustrating is when a customer has ordered 1 item of a buy 1 get 1 free deal. obviously assuming we'd then put 2 in the basket. but if the customer has selected just 1 that's all we can scan. if we put 2 in it would then be eventually registered as missing stock. So if you see a buy1 get one free ask for 2!!

|
By:
Rachrose, the site tells you to order 2 if it's a 2 for 1 offer, so they only have themselves to blame if they don't do so.
