Online shopping reliable and cheap

[Marijn]

Please could you tell me, from personal experience, which is the best online shopping in regards to reliability and cheap, thank you.

I bet you wished it was gin craft.

I'd already paid for the gin mick :-)

Amazon never had a problem - The one time I complained about late delivery got the money back straight away.

Thanks for the answers. It's grocery online shopping I'm asking about. My son would prefer something a lot cheaper than Waitrose. He lives next door to a Waitrose anyway. Do Iceland or Lidl have online shopping?

I think Iceland is free on orders over £25, but that was ages ago.
Dont know if you can order on-line as before, as you had to shop there then they delivered.

Might have all changed now!

Lidl don't have on line shopping.
Iceland ..you have to shop in store .Minimum spend 25 quid and then they deliver it .It's all to much aggro .
I shop on line from Sainsburys .They're all the same really .It's all swings and roundabouts .What's cheaper in one place will be dearer somewhere else and vice versa.
I've always been happy with Sainsburys so stick to them .Only ever had one duff item .I ordered Matzos and they sent me Mazda lightbulbs instead :))

Thanks trt, I just looked it up, it's still not online, only if you go in the shop and spend over £25, for the free delivery, as you said.

[Marijn]

Thanks shaneystar. What about Aldis? Do they do online shopping?
I know he's having to be very careful with money at the moment.

[craft1948]

lol shaney, I once ordered some bayonet fitting light bulbs, and Tesco substituted it with screw in ones.

[shaneystar2]

No ..Aldi don't online either .
It's just the big ones ,Tesco .Asda ,Sainsburys ,Waitrose .Then of course it depends where you live .I would love to have Waitrose but they don't deliver in my area .
Morrisons don't do online and home delivery either which is a bit poor really considering they are quite a big player as far as supermarkets go .

[shaneystar2]

Haha..I've tried them all from time to time but use Sainsburys all the time now .
I remember once getting a delivery from Tesco and they gave me a huge lot of frozen food that I hadn't ordered .Meant for someone else obviously . I phoned and told them and they said to keep it .
I don't particularly like frozen minted lamb grills or oven chips or microwave burgers ,microwave kebabs and other such stodge so gave them to my neighbour :)

[Marijn]

Thanks. Are Sainsburys fairly cheap?

[shaneystar2]

It depends what you want to buy really .They all have special offers etc .
Best thing to do is look at their individual websites .You don't have to register You can browse around and look at the stuff you would buy regularly and go from there .
On a budget then I would say that Asda is probably the cheapest .

[Marijn]

Thanks for your answers shaneystar. Boo sent a link to ROSSPA, that looks so cheap I'm wondering if it's ok. I'll have to post a question about that.

[smart1]

I have made almost 500 'buys' on ebay, with no problems at all.

[gollysailor]

Have you tried ROSSPA's website?

[smart1]

Oops - thought you meant general shopping. Sorry.

[Marijn]

I've looked at the link Boo sent. I wondered if anyone had tried it. Have you?

[shaneystar2]

That's one I've never heard of .I'll have to have a nosey :)
