Jimbob Posted August 23, 2010 Author Posted August 23, 2010 Either way, online and drive thru both equal lazy twats. Agreed. And staying at home can be fun (sometimes), just make sure there is enough to keep you entertained (a collection of Arnie movies would suffice)
MadDog Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 (edited) Hardly makes the people lazy, they're probably really busy and are happy to pay £4.50 is it? For delivery. Plus it's great for elderly people who struggle to get around. My Nanna who really struggles to get around, has used the home delivery numerous times. Edited August 24, 2010 by MadDog
Ashley Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Or for people who simply don't have cars (and live in shitty bus route areas)! This is online delivery obviously, not the drive thru.
Wesley Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 When my girlfriend is away the closest full sized supermarket is quite a trek away. And doing my weekly shop one bag at a time is wasteful. So yeah, home delivery it is. Also, calling someone lazy for using home delivery is ridiculous. Unless you grow your own food, hunt for meat and cook on an open flame: shut up you lazy twat.

Unless you grow your own food, hunt for meat and cook on an open flame: shut up you lazy twat. It's true, calling them lazy would be stupid. Lazier might be more apporpriate. So many factors to consider.
Eddage Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 As opposed to remaining at home and doing fuck all? Seems to be the middle ground between physical shopping and online shopping. Can't be bothered to order online and wait for two hours but would rather drive over there anyway and get what you want, which is what would happen with "normal" shopping. Either way, online and drive thru both equal lazy twats. Order it online then just pick it up on your way home from work, it would save you a fair bit of time. Personally I think it's a great idea.
Sheikah Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 It's not lazier, it's evolution. We don't call ourselves lazy for using the internet to research rather than trek to the nearest library and trawl through books.

We don't call ourselves lazy for using the internet to research rather than trek to the nearest library and trawl through books. In the time it takes for me to get dressed, walk to the library, look through the books, write something/stuff down, walk home and prepare to make a nice job of my rough stuff i could have found it on the internet, and made lunch/dinner.
Fierce_LiNk Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 The home delivery stuff is good, as both my parents are ooooolder than the sky. So, its good for them, they can order the stuff online or whatever and then just wait for it to get home. This new system is also pretty good. I have a car now and my brother has one, so it means we could pop down to the store sometime and collect the stuff. Plus, I can imagine it being hell trekking around the store armed with children, or an old person. Its another option, and options are always good. I like to actually go around the supermarket myself, I find food shopping fun. But, on the days where I'm uber busy, I might use this.
Coolness Bears Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Tescos like Willy Wonkas chocolate factory is slowly becoming the land of dreams. Soon they will start employing Oompa Loompa's to pack/deliver/send your shopping. Except in the real world they would just be midgets. and it would be rude to keep saying "every little helps."
Charlie Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 Using the internet at work? Disgraceful. We should. 1) No one mentioned using the Internet at work. Just picking it up after work. 2) No, we shouldn't. 3) Stop nit-picking and generally acting like an arse for no reason.

I just foolishly assumed they didn't order online before work or during your break.
Raining_again Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 you know you could possibly order it the night before for collection 'murray :P
EEVILMURRAY Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 you know you could possibly order it the night before for collection 'murray :P I did consider mentioning that. But I thought that if you had nothing to do the night before you could go get it yourself. Another quality assumption I know.
Eddage Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 I did consider mentioning that. But I thought that if you had nothing to do the night before you could go get it yourself. Another quality assumption I know. If you buy the same stuff every week then you can order it in about 5 clicks... taking a grand total of 2 minutes...
