For potential interest, this fanboy approach --


Please excuse me, but I am so rubbish with names and faces -- I have the strongest feeling that I know you; I shouldn't like you to think that I had cut you, and I truly cannot remember who you are and how we met!


"Might it have been at your couch, on the television? I've appeared in THE BILL."


Oh my heavens... how embarrassing... and what a grand opportunity to thank you for the wonderful work that you've done! I'll never forget your FOURTH DRUNK WOMAN LYING IN GUTTER from that episode in 2003!


And so on.

*sideways glance to camera* *raises eyebrow* "yes missus"

    • Ocado stopped sourcing from Waitrose a few years ago. They now source from M&S and general brands. Waitrose have their own delivery service now. I don't know how well served SE22 is by it. Ocado offers for new customers are, or certainly were, really good, particularly in the run up to Christmas. I think I got 20%/15%/10% up to a maximum of £100 spend off my first three deliveries with no delivery charge or commitment to sign up for further deliveries. There wasn't a time limit, IIRC, so it was a great way of restocking heavy store cupboard basics and stuff for the freezer.
    • Fair enough point, but does that not in a way make it even worse if they open a shop almost directly  opposite another "family" business selling exactly the same type of products?
    • As Occado source from Waitrose, and were their only deliverer at one stage, and as Waitrose do now deliver it may be they feel their reach in ED is sufficient to mean having a local outlet would not gain them sufficient additional sales to be cost effective. The movement to delivery rather than physical shopping during Covid has I believe substantially changed the grocery economics. So it may be that the High Street dynamic for physical shops has now changed. 
    • ..... thinking about the discussion about Chango.  Their "About us" blurb on the website says started by one Argentina guy.  So if one person has a successful business and goes on to open a number of shops when do they go from a supported successful "family" business to a less liked "chain"?
