Don't Like Their Attitude!

i always have bother trying to turn the trolleys and seen struggling up the damn isles with them, then the wheels get stuck and its hard to push them :D :D

 

Horrors! Thank goodness I may only have to do one shop in a couple of weeks when I'm there! :eek:

 

unlike B+Q ones which only work if you pull them along behind you.....
Sorry, slight change of emphasis here....

 

i am running an NVQ level 1 in trolley management, perhaps you should all sign up!

 

A few years ago I was holidaying in Herefordfordshire and popped in to LIDL's to buy a few odds and ends. On my return I went in to my local branch of the store and noticed that the identical items were selling at higher prices. When I queried this at the till I was told that the cost of living in London was higher...which is probably why the people in the part of the capital where I live are considerably poorer than the well-heeled folk of Hereford! Surely prices of goods in different branches of the same supermarket ought to be the same.

 

We decided to stop and have lunch in Morrisons before we did our shop.
We ordered and sat at a table - and waited almost an hour before our before our food was brought. I was not very pleased and wrote to the Manager and complained. Two days later arriving home we found a strange man standing at our front door. Turned out to be the manager of Morrisons, who had come personally to apologise.
He invited us to return to the store sometime when they would serve us with a free lunch to compensate.
We took this offer up a week or so later and the manager himself served us!!!

Anybody else had a free lunch? :D


.

 

LG :D :D :D You could become wealthy....

 

Thats what i call a result

 

Well done jjordie, good for you!

Our local Morrisons does not have a restaurant, didn't know they had them. Suppose they are big 'oop Noorth' and have all the bells and whistles, but Norfolk surprises me, was it taken over from Safeway, like ours?

LG: Put me down for an NVQ course! :D

 

All Safeway was taken over, DAG! We even have Morrisons here! WAY oop north.....

 

Yes I know,and I thought 'good job too' but I can't see an improvement so far!

 

No Dag, was purpose built - right next door to the Norwich football stadium.

Every home game is like the January sales in Morrisons - the fans absolutely crowd in to get food from the retaurant, hot pie counter, sandwich bar, salad bar and bakery section. They certainly knew what they were doing to build it there - it must be a goldmine!

 

Morrisons built a state of the art shop at the new town Camborne outside Cambridge in their cafe fish/chips were some thing else and their fish counter was a joy to behold alas we don't have one near here still we have a Lidls in walking distance very good value for basics

 

Just out of interest and a bit off topic (and showing my age), does anyone remember Key Markets and Victor Value? I think they were among the first supermarkets in the country in the mid to late sixties.

 

Yeah I remember them, So small, unyet you could still have a trolly, as long as you all went round the same direction, no problem. :D
