off my trolley (DKH Sainsburys)

[Eliza.D]

I know this sounds pathetic, but the trolley system at Sainbury's, Dog Kennel Hill is driving me to distraction.

Some of the trolley's you have to unlock for ?1. Fair enough, but they have about 5 diffrent types of tolley.

When you come to take the shopping out and go to retrieve your ?1 from a like trolley you can't not find one. You spend the next 10 mins walking round the car park trying to find a trolley that matches yours so that you can get your quid back.

Even the guys that collect the trolleys think the system is stupid.

I understand the problem completely having done it recently too - but it is just a trolley?! maybe next time pick up a trolley you do not have to pay for (they are still there) then you can leave it at any trolley hut you like when your done?

(edited for poor spelling)

You can still get your quid back as the release mechanism is the same you just leave a Frankenstein spider like trolly monster like the next door boy's toys in Toy Story

I know Quids, ain't it great when you have a Friday off and spend most of the afternoon in the pub.

Then back home with a few large Peronis and get all surreal on a trolly thread.

It's what makes Fridays off special.

Cheers.

Quids, I salute you. It's good to know that it's not just me who heads straight to 'langers' after work.

And nice use of the Old English 'wanckered'.

I'm raising a large Peroni in your direction.

And before anyone makes an innuendo, it's an Italian beer, not a suppository.

Just always choose the big style trolley. They are free.

[absentminded]

I like it when people leave their trolleys with the ?1 still in, then you can make a bit of extra cash....

DKH Sainsbury's is introducing 16 automated tills very soon so protest if you feel it will mean job losses and a big pain in the a**e.

[David Mc]

I use the trolleys that take the plastic baskets Sainsbury's used to sell (?1 keeper is on the opposite side to the majority of other trolleys) and I completely understand the Frankenstein spider-like trolley monster having created several myself.

"Unexpected item in bagging area"

A statement of our times.

[sanity girl]

Go to customer services, tell them you don't have a ?1 for the trolley and they'll give you a token that you can use instead - they even give you a little clip to add it to your keyring , pretty handy eh?

[David Mc]

Except you still need to get the token back - particularly if it's on your keyring!

The one thing that makes the weekly shop bearable is the staff at Sainsbury's. There does not seem to be a high turnover of staff. You see the same people regularly and they are always very polite and helpful. If 16 automated tills means job losses then that is really bad.

I flintch when the total of the weekly shop is revealled, the supermarkets are coining it in. I have tried all the local supermarkets, Tesco, Asda, Somerfield and always gravitate back to Sainsbury, mainly because of the freindly staff. I also find Iceland Staff really nice too.

I thought there'd been about 8 of these tills there anyway since the last big refurb...

Hi,

Has anyone noticed that the cleaning time counter is always at zero in the male toilets. Is it that the toilets have not been cleaned or is it that...

Sorry my carer is giving me more tablets.

Regards,

Libra.
