I saw it on an online marketing feed from Ocado I’m sure a few months back. I thought it was a generic feed. Maybe not if it is a targeted ad. I think the RTD have been there since the Selfridges launch. Ocado have put a picture of the new bars I think because they are a new product because they superceed the previous version.
I’ve never seen the point in ordering single bottles for delivery from an online supermarket. I’d rather buy 2 packs. However I don’t consume many bars apart from when I’m driving to Spain or France so a few bars for the journey will be useful.
I get an Ocado delivery once a year, and get a lovely text advising what colour van is arriving at my house. I pray for anything but the Onion van but it’s always that one. Then I go back to cycling to Aldi for the remainder of the year.
I thought as much. But does it have a connotation of luxury or expensiveness around it?
I’m reading a book (a feel good Christmas novel, book 66 of 2019 ) and this store also got mentioned, delivery van included Funny to see it pop up here as well
Edit: sorry, that sounds a bit braggy and is not my intention, but I LOVE to read and am always very excited when I’m telling something about books. It’s not my only addiction, but it’s the one of which I am most proud.
I guess. Originally it was just partnered with Waitrose (a more upmarket supermarket - part of the John Lewis company) and soon Marks and Sparks, who sell old women’s knickers and posh food. I believe the Waitrose deal will end later in 2020 when Smarks and Parks get going. They are notoriously tardy.
Morrisons another lower priced supermarket also has ties - as well as flat caps, yorkshire puddings and whippets, and I think Ocado uses (or has done) their huge distribution centres for some of the warehousing.
I hope that answers many of your yet to be asked questions.
wow you managed to get the full spectrum of retail and UK cultural stereotypes into such a concise description! I think the flat cap thing has been fully gentrified now though and it does make for a good storage solution for beard pomade on the go.
