just trying to gauge peoples experiences
due to health issues i have been alone self isolating for about a year
now i'm a very keen home home and used to shop daily for my ingredients - but in lockdown home delivery made a lot of sense
i set up a delivery every Tuesday from Waitrose and a Wednesday delivery from Tesco to cover any shortfall in my Waitrose delivery
my findings - despite putting a note in the 'box' saying long use by date Waitrose are bloody awful
eg todays delivery three packs of croissants to be used by tomorrow and very short dates on chicken and sea bream
ring Waitrose customer services and you get a refund - but thats no bloody use when you are planning a weeks meals
i have told Waitrose customer services that in these times the 'shelf pickers' are the public face of Waitrose and must step up to provide the service/quality that customers demand
Tesco site is far, far better giving 'set' use by dates for most products before you place an order
i ordered a turkey breast joint and was guaranteed 5 plus days use by date
wtf with premium prices can Waitrose not adopt a similar system?
your experiences/advice would be much appreciated
