Took my old mum to waitrose today, her first supermarket visit since Feb. I like going there as people SD well and are polite, the staff are super lovely and the stuff is great quality. As we were loading up at the till a staff member came and gave my mum a lovey bunch of flowers for no reason :flowers:

so nice

I will email head office to say thanks

The staff in Waitrose are usually very professional. If ever you wanted something they always took you there rather than just saying “Aisle 10”....
Over the last couple of years other supermarkets have aspired to their service...although some have dropped their standards again.

Bloody love Waitrose.

The butterscotch & pecan yum yum in their bakery is delicious.

Why pay extortionate prices for the same products wrapped in nicer packaging?

Nice groceries ridiculously priced. A pack of sausages for almost £3.50 is a joke when I can get a whole 1.5k chicken from Aldi for £2.49.

That is full of waterIts not. Sometimes you can get chicken weighing over 1.5k for £2.49 still. I've even queried this with the staff who see nothing wrong. The last one I bought for £2.49 weighed almost 2k. Or I could get six sausages for £3.50. That is a no brainer of a deal.

i have a waitrose local to me and you can get stuff there that is just not available in other supermarkets. So it's good for that type of shopping

The staff get a profit bonus share and the politer they are they get a higher tier of pay.

It’s over rated and over priced.

Tbh this applies to most of the other supermarkets as well, definitely Asda/Morrisons/M&S/Aldi anyway
