Annoyances In Sainsburys

This morning, I had to show friends, where to park their car, whilst they did a day’s business in London and then get them organised with a Travelcard at Dalston Junction.

So this meant, as I wasn’t near my usual paper shop, I had to go to Sainsbury’s to get one, as I have a pre-paid voucher and not all shops accept them.

I also needed some toilet rolls, but unlike Waitrose who do them with handles so they are easy to carry, Sainsburys don’t do this.  The only one with a handle was a nine of Andrex.

And then to pay for my two items, I had to wait, as no tills were open and vouchers aren’t accepted in the self-service machines. Eventually, I used the tobacco kiosk, but had to use a card, which didn’t work too well, because of my gammy fingers.  It’s funny but I never have trouble with cards except in Sainsburys.

So I doubt I’ll be visiting that Sainsburys early in the morning again.

  1. Was it a proper big Sainsburys, or one of these “corner shop replacement” type. The Tesco Metro around the corner from me is always really busy
