[QUOTE="Diane fluteplayer, post: 2277547, member: 37310"] I go to a local farm shop once a fortnight (lots of space, veg stall outside, sanitizer at tills, supportive and considerate staff and cooperative customers); boots once a month (brilliant system, contactless payment, staff in masks, gloves, overalls); otherwise online. Waitrose once near start of lockdown, we’ll managed and sensible customers . Good chat in distanced queue! Tried M&S later on. Staff tried but customer behaviour frightening. Left via self service till without half the shopping. Oh and I finally tracked down a local milkwoman who was willing to add us to the round. Absolute lifesaver! I’ll be continuing the delivery even if/when it’s safe to shop - it’s only fair. Will be continuing these arrangements for the foreseeable future since I see no evidence of increased safety now distance being reduced and lockdown eased even more. Of course there are fewer symptomatic cases - 2 weeks ago we were all staying at home! I feel less safe now than I did a week ago. [/QUOTE]
