The cost of covid (34)
tomcatty: I am doing most of my shopping over the Internet, this leads me to buying more expensive and exotic food.
This in turn gets me looking through eBay and similar outlets, which starts the impulse buying, and not just for cheap stuff, if this covid lasts for much I'll be broke!!!!!
Does anyone else have the same problem ???

Someone told me you were a nosey old sod, but guess your toy would never fly that far if only valid for 1/2 hourly flights., and also you must be 150 metres away from any property in a built up area and I doubt yours could see anything at that range .Good try though

I've been grocery shopping on line for 10 years now blathin as it's so much more convenient to have door to door deliveries, especially if you live out of town.I'm in to Marks and Spencer on line now as their range is vast. So easy to order clothes etc and have it delivered in a few days by Royal mail
I'm turning into a shopaholic.

Oh Marks do nice food for sure. If I'm ever near one I always get some groceries and I love the little pots of prawn salad they do..yumm lol... The quality of their clothes seems to have gone down though...I'm in to Marks and Spencer on line now as their range is vast.

I'm the total opposite of you, I won't shop unless I actually need something and then it's has to be something I really need. Granted, ever couple of years I'll take amad notion and spend all before and behind me...lol...

Tesco deliver my main supplies ,have done for years and it costs me nothing as I have a delivery service which I pay for out of vouchers awarded. The drivers are great and Tesco are really good on most things.
I've started using M and S not for food but for household things and a few personal bits and pieces .I'm accumulating funds as I'm not going out as much so have a little spending spree on myself for a change.

Everyone I know is saying the same thing,,that they're saving a lot because they're not spending...There's going to be some mad spending when all this covid is over lol...I just want to go and get some sunshine, eat nice food, sit with friends/family and have the craic... outside with lots of people passing by...chilled as ever lol..

My dear Spitz, we seem to agree on something, i use Iceland as their delivery is good in our area, not such a wide range of goods, but good frozen selection, MS are good value for sweaters underpants, etc. Tesco deliver my main supplies ,have done for years and it costs me nothing as I have a delivery service which I pay for out of vouchers awarded.

I bought stuff in Iceland once years ago...god it was vile, you couldn't eat it it was that bad...I thought it would have improved since then but I'm reliably informed by someone who tried it recently... and yep...still vile
