    I have my shopping delivered by Ocado once a month cos it saves me going to a supermarket. Far too tiring. But I can only afford it once a month.

    Ocado do a price comparison with Tesco and if your bill is more expensive you get the difference back as a voucher to spend on your next shop. This month's was 69p.

    All very nice but the vouchers have a two week cut off date on them so are useless to me. But I'm just the kind of person that could do with them, on my small budget. So just on the off-chance, I emailed Customer Services and said that very thing to them.

    And...

    They agreed and sent me a FIVE POUND VOUCHER viable until 31st March 2019!

        I know! They are a good company. And they do the most reliable delivery service. I tried Icelands but out of 6 deliveries I had problems with 4 of them. So I went back to Ocado.

            We use Asda for deliveries once a fortnight . They are spot on with their timings :blue thumb: On the delivery we get all the bulky items , bottles , cans boxed stuff etc . Then visit the store for the meats , veg and salads . It does save a lot of time and effort not having to cart things to the car and unpack them again at our end .
