Hello, not knocking Jen and her thread moaning about the milk delivery, we've all had that sort of experience at some point. Just thought it would be nice to hear of some positive experiences. Any companies out there who are GOOD ? I'd nominate River Nene Organic fruit and veg delivery service... excellent, and very flexible.

Our local 'department' store - it's a small family-run business and it's great - average age of the staff about 70, they all know their stuff, they sell things you can't get anywhere else, will deliver the same day and are almost reluctant to take money from you! And their prices are good too!

Truprint on line - placed my order on a Saturday afternoon, next day was Sunday (obviously), day after that was Bank Holiday Monday, the photos arrived in the post Tuesday morning. Still can't work out how they did it! Maz. XX

I would also like to nominate Amazon - I have both bought and sold books through this company and have found their service second to none. I have also found Lakeland to be very good - I ordered a miracle tin opener from them but just could not get the hang of it - they refunded me without a quibble.

If you want actual prints of your digital camera pics then I've found Photobox (online service) to be superb. Very cheap and next day or next but one day delivery (depending on what time of the day you order).
