Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

In general, labels that don’t peel off easily. Leaving either sticky marks or spoiling the item.

especially on rolls of wrapping paper, where the label/glue is stronger than the paper!!!
I know, I've been trying to wrap stuff.

Apparently you should heat with a hairdryer, melts the glue and makes it easier to remove (so a friend told me after a recent rant on this subject)

How hard it is to boycott Evri! They know they're terrible, but they're not bothered because they're.... Ervi-where...


Their treatment of people is horrendous.

Folk that park half on pavement, half on the road. You’ve blocked the pavement & one side of the road.

People who don't finish one bottle/packet of something before starting the new one. Result: many bottles of shampoo/conditioner/shower gel etc with a bit left cluttering up the bathroom.
