STUUUUUPID SHOPS!!!! UPDATED!!

Postby pinkydinkydoo » Mon Sep 22, 2008 10:10 am

Just discovered that both boots and Waitrose are going to stop stocking nappy liners and other washable nappy items throughout Devon. Do'nt they realise that we need them to stock reusable nappy stuff??? I know they both only sell boring nappies but they are better than nothing surely!!! :evil: :evil: :evil:

It really doesn't surprise me that they are going to stop, but it is frustrating.

With Mothercare starting to do cloth I thought it would encourage more shops to do the same - obviously not :evil:

I went into Waitrose on the way home from nursey and complained that they had no washable nappies, i also told a porky and said i needed nappy liners and could'nt get them anymore and asked why they were getting rid of it all. The manager came and saw me and said they are revamping the baby isle in this store and it will take up to a month to do it, he also said that they are getting some differant washable nappies in this store but again it will take up to a month to do so. As a good will gesture he gave me a pack of bambino mio liners :lol: :oops: So i guess that's ok then :lol: but no prises for guessing what nappies they will be :roll:

All the boots round me have stopped stocking nappy liners, and yet they still stock all the other cloth nappy bits, way to put off new cloth mummies!

Hmmm and I thought Waitrose were doing the right thing by stocking ME nappies! Do you reckon its because Bambino Mio is cheaper and therefor more readily available that is has become more popular? Real shame... :roll:

Our local Waitrose has just finished re-vamping their nappy aisle and I can report that it is not Bambio Mio that they are now stocking.....
Ours still have ME and are now stocking the Modern baby Pop-in single pack
I'd never seen these before so I have bought one to try (just in the machine now)
Interestingly, I paid £14 for mine and I see that they are £15 if you buy them directly! Bonus :D
