Been to Aldi and Currys.
Currys system is a joke. I want to buy a £900** fridge freezer for my daughter but their system would not allow me to complete the transaction.
Hence my visit where a pleasant young man said he would do it.
No luck !! He couldn't do it either.
He discovered that the reason was "no stock in the warehouse" :rolleyes:
So I have to go in again this weekend then wait 2 weeks for delivery:wacko:
**you are not allowed to gift more than £3K a year TOTAL so its a way around it.
Bloody marvelous.....I earned the money and paid all my taxes but I can't give to my family.
I wonder if Cherie Blair would help me do it :rolleyes:

I caused a certain amount of chaos and confusion when I brought my new tablet in Currys, their system for picking up an order is geared around the E-Mail they send you, I don't have an E-Mail client set up on my phone, so I went in to pick up my new tablet with a paper copy of the E-Mail they sent me, one of their sales people had to find the order on the phone they were carrying and do the pick up from there using details from the paper copy of my E-Mail. It was so much easier later in the day when I went into Argos to pick up an Item I'd ordered, I just gave them the order number and they gave me the mower I'd ordered.

I tried to buy a top of the range Dyson of them approx 12 months ago.
I got all way through then the web site declined it.
All stores were closed so I couldn't go in.
I ended up buying from Argos :rolleyes:

Mo, I have snap crackle and pop every morning as I force my smelly carcass to get up and get moving.
As far as dreams go, I had a nice one in which the Covid vaccine resulted in waking up with a 20 year old body the next day. By this I mean my body, although it worked for my wife as well. Kinda disappointed to find it not true.
A lovely ride in store this morning and maybe a little carrot harvest after. Livin the dream, I guess, but it is too bad it isn't the 20 year old dream.
Be safe and well.
