Things that sh*t me the seventeenth

Yep it's massive. I'd rather go and pick out my own produce but each to their own. I know my company does Coles/Woolies delivery orders because if you are getting 20 litres of milk at a time it's a pain in the arse to send one person to do that but also not worth the effort of one of the dairies to add you to their route just for a crate or two.

My point is that it makes sense to be a store based thing. Supermarket warehouses aren't set up to pick individual items. It would be a big change even to have a truck carrying a regular order to a supermarket plus a bunch of separate customer orders.

I see your point .

They have a service and people are using it ..it's been a successful one .

And I may add if Coles and woolies had a just online shop.
That has to be re stocked ...they spending more money just for online.

At store level they getting both = bang for buck.
Even if those online people think they own the shop.

'This item is click and collect only'
check available stores
'This item is unavailable in store'

But they have already opened one in Sydney and one soon to be in Melbourne. So they are setup to pick individual items. And clearly the supermarket chains believe it is a better financial setup than picking online orders in store.
