I have never bought groceries off the internet before. Bags, shoes, clothes, fabric, etc, etc, etc, etc, yes, but not groceries. I wasn't sure if it would be as much fun as shoe shopping, but I was in for a lovely surprise. I had some advice beforehand from avid online grocery shopper friends of mine of what to expect, little tips and found that very useful. One thing that excited me about the shop was that I could do it online, at my time, my pleasure and in the comfort of my own home. For me, and being a late bird, my online shop took place at around midnight. I shan't tell you what time it was when it was all completed ;0) The Tesco website was so easy to navigate, even as a first time user I quickly got used to it. There were some great 3 for 2 offers on many of my items, I got quite into it, thinking I was some sort of contestant on Supermarket Sweep.... I shall have one of those, two of those, oohhh that looks nice....
I couldn't believe my shopping would be with me technically the same day, I even enjoyed choosing a slot, I choose 4-6pm as I knew the children would have fun seeing the little lorry turn up, and see our man and our bags of shopping....( We lead a simple life ). Club card points get popped on too and any substitutions you don't have to take, and can be refunded there and then.
I haven't got onto my driver yet have I....COR!!! is all I am going to say. He was also helpful, friendly, chatty and a delight to welcome into my kitchen to help with my bags. Yes I did plum for bags, perhaps won't on my next visit online, thinking of the olde environment and all that....
So, a really enjoyable first time experience for me, and even if I couldn't get me some handbags and shoes, it's not all about the food, as I found myself some super day cream, and a bargain at half price, £5.10 from the original price at £10.20....
( No getting old jokes please, I bought it because my mother always tells me off for not wearing face cream, so there you are mum, probably my first face cream I have bought in about 10 years ) I was an avid wearer of Nivea for my face in my youth, couldn't get enough of the stuff. Anyway, I digress. If you would like £12.00 off your first online grocery shop when you spend £50.00 or more, all you need to do is let me know you would ike the voucher by comment here.

On line grocery shopping is a Godsend. I have to do my housebound Mum's shopping too and when I'm in Tesco's trying to follow 2 lists I usually end up wimpering in the frozen food isle bleating,'I want to go home!' That delivery charge buys back a whole morning!
