Just another manic Monday 13:52 - Dec 23 with 1589 views | OldFart71 | Went to Tesco in Stow this morning. Talk about heaving, everywhere was chocca you had to literally fight your way down the aisles. Wouldn't have been half as bad if there wasn't so many of these internet shopping trolleys blocking every aisle. Why don't supermarkets do this at night. Not the youngsters fault who are doing the job, but it's just crazy that every aisle has three or four of these trolleys plus other cages replenishing stock. Well, I will answer my own question as to why they don't do it at night. Because they may have to pay a bit more to the staff, so sod the inconvenience to their customers. |  | | |  |

As for the internet shopping carts, customers have delivery orders running though the day, therefore cannot have fresh, chilled and frozen food sitting in a van for too long, hence the need. It's not about sod inconvenience to customers or not willing to pay unsocial hours, it is about maximizing the volume of customers virtually on top of the physical customers. |  | |  |

Most are now a fairly horrible experience to visit in store, Deliveroo couriers and other suspects seem to feel they have the right to faster service than visiting customers and that they should be able to park wherever they like, and the service staff just let them get away with it. I filed a complaint once (don't bother) and the online customers were described as VIPs which says it all |  |

Why don't they fulfill internet orders from their stock rooms and then there would be no aisle blocking and less to restock on the shelves. |  | |  |
