This is very good. I’ll still stick to delivery, but at least I have an option for a 5am run now.

deliveries aren’t really great now cos they can’t handle the demand.

i ordered carrefour now once and it came on time. i ordered it for the second time (i didn’t order anything heavy, no water, just veggies and meat) and they didn’t bring a half of what i ordered. so i had to go and buy stuff at a local choithrams.

our choithrams delivery isn’t coping as well, a ton of orders. and impossible to go there any time after 11 am cos too crowded.

so i’m really happy i can go and buy food at some obnoxious time.

Dang, that sucks man. Carrefour now is very swing and miss for me too.

Which Choithrams is this? I haven’t been to mine in over a week and I hope we don’t share the same store lol (because I don’t think mine will go 24/7).

Have you tried using InstaShop to order from a lower traffic store? Might work out for you, but they’re swamped too.
I’m gonna try out Kibsons now.

Yup. Ordered a bunch of stuff from Carrefour and didn't get the stuff I really needed when they delivered. Until they sort this out, this is a great alternative, late night shops

Spinneys shopping at 3:30 in the morning sounds pretty rad.

More time for employees to keep everything in stock and disinfect the produce as well. Hope they are getting paid generously for this.

i’m actually very excited. i’m a very nocturnal person and i’m stoked that i can now avoid most of the people and go shopping at 2-3 am.

now the question is which supermarkets will be open and how to find out.

I love the idea and I hope they keep it afterwards.

This is a very good move, I just hope the workers are duly compensated.

It will help with the retarded people running to the supermarket to buy stuff to hoard.

So glad I don’t work in a supermarket or pharmacy

I think it will be better if we can just pickup from the shop as they are struggling to deliver.

I can place my order by call / app and even pay with card. I can just go in front of the shop and have it delivered to the car.

I think it's better than all of use roaming through the aisle of the supermarket and touching things & spreading the virus. Plus just contact with the person hanging over my shopping. Better than contact with everyone in the whole supermarket.
