sorted byJohn Lewis charges £2 for orders less than £30
-not really polish, just notice they wear a lot of tapout stuff
I am very happy the charge has been abolished, but I wonder if you have got your own business, or ever worked for yourself ?
People don't work for nothing (except in charity shops, but that's a different argument) so if it takes extra manpower to handle the click and collect items, then why is it 'pure greed' to try and charge for that extra cost ?
I am certainly no fan of supermarkets and the way they try to control their suppliers (many small fruit and veg growers have been bankrupted by supermarkets' tactics) but it obviously costs some extra money to handle C&C items no matter how small, so they thought it would be good to charge - after all, they are a business not a charity.
The fact they are reversing that decision is brilliant news and shows they must have suffered financially, but the cost will have to come from somewhere, either wages or investment perhaps. Please don't anyone say the cost can come from profits - every business has to make a profit or it will cease to exist and then people lose their jobs.
Yeah, same here. Haven't used Click & Collect since the charge was introduced. Used to be a fairly regular customer.

This one was counted as a deal , I just hope people come to this area (edited)
All good points. Yes I have my own business and yes I work for myself. As such I would question why the charge wasn’t introduced into the business model from conception. In such a competitive market or any market it's not good business practice to alienate your Customers by backtracking subsequently causing a negative backlash and unfavourable press headlines. I also question why charge for delivering to a place where your own vehicles are already delivering too on a daily basis is required? Finally yes I also know how much Tesco's operating costs are, I am a Tesco shareholder too unfortunately. I suspect if they hadn't acquired a £17.5bn debt hangover from their irresponsible rampant boom-time expansion they could have absorbed the costs of Click and Collect hence my greed comment.
On this forum £2.00 is a lot
Thanks

John Lewis is another one that got greedy, and we've bought virtually nothing from it since it brought the new charge in. Maybe they'll go the same way after their latest poor results.

Agreed, could have set the delivery benchmark much lower, however I think £30 was cleverly set as being overpriced by Tesco for a reason. To make us take notice that it used to be free and appreciate it more. Now they are perceived to have back tracked (so we give brownie point to Tesco for being "humbled" when they knew what they were doing) and us customers perceive we've won, their profits will increase and so does our appreciation of the free delivery. Mind games, very clever, well played Tesco.
Why should the staff get paid extra to handle click and collect? I assume the staff are getting paid an hourly rate to do whatever work is required in the store, whether it's working checkouts, customer services, restocking shelves, or indeed handling click and collect.

You're dead wrong, I would never tip a supermarket employee for doing their job! Whether they are paid fairly is another matter, but I don't believe in tipping people for just doing their jobs!
