Hi Gerry,

Can't find my original now, as you didn't quote it, but I don't recall
saying all, and if I did, I meant most.  But yes, Sainsbury's is a good
system from what I have been told.  However, I still think you can miss some
special offers by not browsing.  With the best will in the world, the
assistants can't give you loads of them, but you can, if you wish, browse
all day.  That to me, is the advantage of online ordering.  Before now blind
people couldn't effectively browse, you had to know what you were looking
for, but with online, we have the same advantages as the sighted person
walking around the store browsing.

All the best

Hi Steve,
    You make a lot of assumptions about telephone shopping.
    Personally, I often shop via the telephone with Saimsbury's.  My sighted
wife says their goods compare favourably with other supermarket prices, are
of better quality - a subjective measure, I appreciate - and one's
telephoned order is always followed up immediately with an e-mail giving
delivery details, price, and goods ordered.  Easily readable! 
[smile]
    The Saimsbury's staff are friendly, helpfull - detailing special offers
on the goods requested, etc.
    Remember, when the word "all" is used in an argument, it oftens weakens
it.  Use some or most - much better.

Kind regards,

Gerry.
