The voucher scheme is now far less generous and far less likely to work if you haven’t bought that item… they have clamped down considerably, the loyalty voucher scheme is so time consuming and clunky, and awful compared to other supermarkets.
I hate that the fresh bread is displayed uncovered, so it’s open to being coughed on, and prodded and squeezed by countless fingers, and by lunchtime it’s dry and horrid. Morrison’s bakery is much better. Also, the Duchy Organic milk isn’t homogenised so the whole milk (blue) has a glob of cream on top, which not everyone likes. Yeo Valley organic doesn’t have the creamy top.
Only their granulated sugar is British (Silver Spoon), the rest is imported. Waitrose own ice cream is nice though, Red Choice tomatoes are good, and I like their organic flour. All their potatoes sprout faster than those from other stores, I think they store them too cold. They used to stock Bart’s organic spices but now they’re only on Ocado, for M&S.
Waitrose really suffers from an unjustifiable snobbery and needs to pull their socks up!
