Still Waters Posted February 21, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Quote A mother was left in hysterics when she received an Asda delivery to find that a rubber duck had been substituted for the nuts she had ordered. The supermarket guarantee that if a shopper buys a product online which is out of stock, they will exchange it for a similar item. So when customer Channelle Johnson, of Ashington, Northumberland, unpacked her weekly shop to find a bath toy as a replacement for her favourite savoury snacks she was stunned. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5417161/Asda-send-RUBBER-DUCK-substitute-missing-nuts.html 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+ouija ouija Posted February 21, 2018 #5 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I once received a hairbrush from Tesco because they were out of the shampoo I ordered. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldrover Posted February 21, 2018 #6 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Yet another strong contender for 'headline you didn't think you'd read'. I bought a multi-pack of yellow plastic ducks a few years ago. I only needed one, to exploit a texting error, but I still find them while I'm looking for a chisel or something. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
