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!

But it's okay if they pay for it, surely?

I've no objection to parents who shut their kids up with sweeties then present the empty wrapper at the till.

I do get annoyed by the social shoppers who travel around the shop in convoys.

People who find a parking space big enough for 2 cars and park right in the middle of it. Selfish gits.

After I've bought anything online, I'm bombarded with adverts for it. At least Easyjet should know I've booked flights to Milan with them and work out they have nothing to gain from continuing to advertise them. And Argos should work out that as I've bought one garden shed, it's not highly likely I'll buy another a couple of weeks later.

Subliminal adverts for Easyjet flights to Milan and Garden Sheds from Argos ;-)

Agree with XB on car park spaces.

Supermarket Checkout operators. OK, I'll admit to being ANAL in the first instance, and I hate shopping. Hence, I load the conveyor by grouping like items together so I can pack them quickly as such and then unpack for storage at home, eg all frozen goods together, meats and fridge stuff, cleaning products/bleach etc, you get the picture!

Therefore, I'd be extremely grateful if you would scan them in the order I present them you moronic bitch, and not just by randomly grabbing items from further back and throwing things thru to me :-(
