Waitrose card.

[postman]

The offer has been popular but has been criticised by some existing customers who have suggested that it is attracting the "wrong type" of shopper to the store.

Oh dear that means me then.i have a coffee card and i use it a couple of times per week,i buy a bun or a cookie though.

this has even been brought to Mr Cameron's notice,wow.

So are YOU the wrong type of shopper.Or don't you care as long as you get a warm drink.

 

[Crackle]

I'm certainly a rum sort.

Never go to Waitrose

There's no such thing as the wrong sort of shopper if they are spending money in the store. I once worked for a large retail furniture company and the area manager was asked by my store manager if it was OK for customers to bring their dogs into the store with them.
'They can bring a bloody horse in with them if they're spending money' was the pithy answer.

Postie is really boasting about the fact that we have a Waitrose nearby. I use the store once a week to get a free newspaper but make sure that I take an Aldi bag with me to pack the goods in.

There's Waitrose up North, how perfectly ghastly?!

We are not worthy.

Don't forget you can use a John Lewis Card (separate card) to get a coffee and a cake once a month...

Yes it is ghastly, but we manage to avoid it.

 

[vernon]

Yes it is ghastly, but we manage to avoid it.

By shopping in Booths leaving Waitrose for the hoi polloi?

 

[Moon bunny]

Yes, but I see they have reached Knutsford, which is dangerously close to the midlands.

I've yet to collect a free coffee on any of my visits since its introduction.

 

[Cuchilo]

Not my cup of tea to be honest .

The 'free' Waitrose coffee machine is the exactly the same as the one in the cafe 200 yards away wher it costs £2.40 for a 'normal' coffee and £2.80 for a cafe latte... no brainer, unless you buy something else.
