I was pleased when my local milk firm said they were going on line. Fabulous, no more scratching around in my purse each week, it meant I could pay by direct debit and I could even alter my orders up to 9pm at night.
So last night I decided to increase my milk order by an extra 2 pints as a one off, since hubby has gone back on the protein shakes with his regular visits to the gym, my two kiddywinks have decided they like milk again, and I’m partial to a nice hot choc at night to help me sleep (I’m not that old really).
So this morning I opened my front door and was greeted to 25 pints of milk, I was only expecting 4! I quickly logged on to discover I had actually typed in 23 instead of 2. I rang milk & more and they were really helpful and understanding, they kept me on the line for a couple of minutes to ring the depot and organised collection straight away, they were fantastic really.
The only thing I didn’t get was why their system didn’t flag up a warning that it was a huge order, or why the milkman who has delivered my milk for the past year didn’t twig it was unusual that a family of 4 would be needing 25 pints of milk that day!
