      @that guy, over yonder Because during lockdown I learned that I didn't need to go to the shops every day for something to do or just to window shop, I made things out of stuff I had at home, baked bread nearly every day and learned an awful lot from the internet. It's a lesson I needed to learn, we all spend far too much on crap we don't really need and the government will always encourage us to go out and spend every last penny we have, even getting into debt, taking on loans all to feed this animal called the 'economy' I'm concentrating on environmental issues now far more than I ever did.

    I'm retired and disabled and feeling guilty about relying on a kind neighbour for my groceries (most local 'caring agencies' being conspicuous by their continued absence.)
    Took the opportunity to get on my scooter and try to do some shopping. Joined a supermarket queue. Left it after 15 minutes, well short of the shop, just sickened by the pushing pulling and impatience. The selfishness of some people was just astonishing - not every shopper of course, but enough to spoil the experience for everyone else. I felt really sorry for the shop staff trying to deal with so many self-important people.

      hope you realise, that online shopping isn't Cheap anymore as you might think, added postal costs rather than Bulk shipped to a store, additional Business store fees and the time Wasted sitting in waiting for a parcel to arrive(need to be home at 2pm, means you can't spend your day at work Or Go out for a day trip) it takes up time and Booking a Specific time slot costs quite a Bit Minimum £8-10.
      plus Many many Retailers are now Matching their Online Prices with Store prices so to the customer it makes no difference. good examples are WHS, Water stones and Gamesworkshop, Branded Retailers don't sell cheaper online. so why bother Waiting in for it to arrive when you can just pop to the store with the hour before your shift cut the cost of Delivery, not relying on the postie to arrive on time making you panic you might be late for work or meeting with Friends.
      with the way things are now, cheaper online is a falsehood when it comes to Branded items or the websites of Brand companies(they survive because they don't bow down to the Race to the bottom rock prices) all those Ebay sellers, Amazon sellers working their asses off for what 10p profit in the pound after the big tech auction sites take their chunk for warehouse costs and store fees, the economy is in tatters because people don't think things through.
      the likes of Amazon etc that employ Reduction staff tactics to make a profit does not protect peoples jobs and yet millions shop with amazon who want to replace their staff with Robots.
      shop locally, even check if the small business has a website atleast then you can sit in like the other sheep waiting for parcels, while i'm out at work earning and going to the shops on a day off rather than rushing around. there's smart lazy, then just Lazy.
