B&Q online virtual queue 23:44 - Apr 13 with 5882 viewsPentyrchJack

I don't know if this is sane or insane, but I just browsed B&Q's website and was put in a "virtual queue" to "limit the number of customers using the website at any one time and to improve customer experience". What on earth is that about??

Mate, if you want "insane" log into Tesco, Morrisons, Asda ect and try to book a home delivery slot? See where you stand in that queue...

Its an eye opener 😂

Managed to buy some flour today. Why have the stupids cleared the shelves of flour? Have flour retailers put false info on thickonet that they need to buy flour?

Went over the Co-op on Friday for a bag of self-raising and the shelf was bare.

The bloke behind the counter told me they had been cleaned out of flour because there was a rumour that everyone would be singing the Welsh national anthem on bank holiday Monday night and the Welsh speakers wanted to bake Welsh cakes to add to the feel good atmosphere...

Thats all i know mate.

He was right. He must have had the text.

Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

If B&Q wasn't classed as an essential business it wouldn't be open.

It's the same in this neck of the woods. Two weeks ago Tesco was still opening at 6am here so you could go in and I managed to get plain flour and bread flour.

The long and short of things is there are far too many selfish and thick cúnts about.

Bit of a moral dilemma, this. My woman ordered bedding plants and compost, picked them up then spent two days gardening. We didn't even go for a walk.

You can't blame the shoppers. B&Q should restrict what people can buy. It's not hard for them to do.
But guess what they are happy to take the money.

I know (and I mean actually know, not heard of on facebook) someone who went to the Range on Carmarthen Road on good Friday and bought a hot tub.

The most shocking aspect is they had received a positive Covid 19 test 48 hrs earlier. There are some idiots about. Puts buying bedding plants in B&Q into perspective.

Aww come on now, you can’t stigmatize a group of people who bought what you wanted before you thought of it. That actually makes them super intelligent. And fast.

I suppose a virtual queue means you can take your mask off and chat to the customer in front in complete safety. In fairness .

How true I don't know but I read about a month ago that the supply chain had plenty of flour. The problem given was that in normal times the sales to the general public was a small percentage and that the industry had automated machinery for large catering bags but very few of the smaller type for home use.

Yep, that’s what we heard too. Also staff shortages. Fortunately we only use a tiny amount for making sauces so we’re unaffected.

Struggling to really see the difference between The range and Dunelm. One is allowed to stay open and yet the other one closes all it's stores , and all because the range sells a couple of essential items.
