Why do people even bother with supermarkets? Convenience.

Yes.
That’s why they’re a success.
Out of interest I had a look to find my nearest green-grocers.
This would appear to be it, at around 5 miles away.

I’ve no idea when it’s open, but I can’t really see me going to the effort of finding out, when it’s range looks like it was dragged out the skip of lidl 🙂

Supermarkets killed grocers and high streets.

Strictly speaking we (mostly) all did.

My local green grocer sells me his manky nanas really cheap which are perfect for my smoothies. Can’t see asda doing that. They probably bin them, waste.

Not just that, I think Tesco is ace – and it’s well cheap.

Plus you get to choose your own stuff – go down to the street market and the unscrupulous feckers will flog you dodgy fruit and veg without a second thought. And there’s no customer service desk to have a moan about it. “Luverly bunch of bananas” my arse.

That reminds me of a joke about a genie.
