Looking back: The Ocado Shop

The start of Term 2 brought with it an incredible stroke of luck which led to our most outrageous bulk order of beer to date. Supplies of beer in our house were running low, and whilst we wanted to order more online none of the standard supermarkets seemed to be offering any deals.

This all changed, though, when we received an Ocado gift voucher from WHSmiths and decided to check it out. In so doing, we stumbled upon a mistake on their website where they were offering £12 15-packs of Carlsberg on 2-for-£10.

Needless to say we capitalised and ordered 14 boxes (210 cans-worth), which combined with our £10-off voucher cost us a grand total of £60. That works out as £2 for every 7 cans of beer!

When we checked back on their website the next day we discovered that the pricing had already been corrected to 2-for-£20. Not that it mattered to us though - we'd already bought 92 litres from them!
