I tend to go to Tesco only and they are mostly fine, I don't put my backpack on as it doesn't work great with that but now I use pay+ paying is way easier and I don't need to fanny about with my club card and that.

Supermarkets would be wise to put up signs saying “10 items or less/fewer”. People that bring in huge shops are stupid because the scales aren’t big enough.

Alcohol is pointless too as a member of staff has to come over and give you the once over anyway. Can’t buy a gaming magazine in Morrisons without an age check either (a by-product of when they came with discs I presume).

Morrisons have special self service checkouts for Trolleys. Have the conveyor belt and everything from a regular checkout and a much larger scale area for bags.

We live right next to a massive Asian student population. Absolutely hate the start of seeester as they attempt to configure both technology and language barriers. They need to learn and all, but strawberry float it’s annoying when you’re in a hurry and they’ve done a full weeks shop in Tesco express.

Not seen that in my local one unfortunately. It does however have a Krispy Kreme cabinet, coffee machines, and Amazon lockers, so at least there’s that.

I’ll not complain too hard. There’s Chinese supermarkets all over the place now and the Koreans have set up a food truck outside halls which is delicious.

Amazon Prime Day.

An annual event during which Amazon reinforces the message that they dislike non-Prime customers.

Take solace in the fact that you're not giving your money to a scummy company like Amazon - other businesses are more deserving of your money.

Is it not sort of in the name of the event?

Why not just get a load of spiders to take out the flies?

Problem solved.
