  • HBAYT?

  • Yeah, supermarket staff at massive risk for £9 an hour. Not belittling the fine efforts of our magnificent NHS, but they expect to have to deal with contagious people. Doris on the till at Morris

It was on the list.

Bargain Booze it is then

I breezed into Sainsbury’s Macclesfield this morning at 7.30 with my NHS pass. Full shop done and now home having breakfast. 

So are the shops doing bank holiday hours on Friday and Monday?

Can't say I'll notice that it's a long weekend though i guess it will be good for the staff to get a day or two off to isolate

Supermarkets are open 8 - 8 on Friday and Monday but closed on Sunday

HBAYT?

Like a gripping thriller on tele this with these twists and turns. 
 

and @Rudy’s Message well

played sir very well played 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I’ve just been to asda get it over and done with and apart from the idiots who can’t see arrows and who don’t want to queue as they are more important than the rest (who quickly decide queuing is the best option when offered a gonzo style roll around the aisles if they don’t move) it wasn’t too bad and shelves were fully stacked 

only thing I couldn’t get was yeast funnily enough.

Up at middlebrook tesco it is very organised big queue but moved quite quickly and had a good system inside that’s easy to follow unless you’re a little slow.

Then went to asda a few days later there was no queue outside I thought get in it must be dead inside, it was a free for all, no real layout, people doing what they want with distances and quite a lot of people inside. Looks like someone had a go at them for it on twitter and apparently it has improved since.

Oh it was set up well that’s no doubt but unfortunately if you put a bunch of disheveled smelly Scrubber window licking cunts in any situation which needs some for of intelligence and manners your onto a loser Straightaway. 

Is it just me or is does it seem to everyone that it’s the old cunts who are the worst for ignoring stuff and thinking it doesn’t apply to them?

can some of our very own piss stained old cunts maybe shed some light??

There is a slot in the day that is better than any other. If you go in the morning then you deserve to stand outside for ages. Having said that the Easter factor does complicate the situation.

 

During this time of national emergency i have found that going to the shop between the time of 1430 to 1530 is the most optimal.

Agree with the time slot. That’s when I go, if I can. Panic buyers there in the morning; wait until the lunch breakers are done and dusted; then get there before those who are going to get some tea after finishing their working day early.

Asda Leigh is queuing round the car park and back in front of the building. Mental. Suppose it’s my own fault for a) not coming earlier and b) forgetting my trolley coin for Aldi
