"Allow substitutions" is the risky click of 2020.
- nemacol 6y agoNot to mention the whole experience made me feel terrible. For the workers involved being overworked and under paid. The wrong products I received. The added expense in not making a trip to the store. My feeling of selfishness and laziness.
- copperx 6y agoYes, but that's the "I'm feeling lucky" button if you often buy the store brand.
- SloopJon 6y agoWhole Foods amusingly substituted hot sauce for baking powder. Less amusingly, Peapod (Stop and Shop) substituted Diet Coke for regular. What am I supposed to do with that? Maybe I'll order some Mentos next time.
- nemacol 6y agoI had an order that asked for "firm tofu" and ended up with mukimame. Which, ya know... pretty close but still pretty far. :P
- kirykl 6y agoMaybe online dating sites will follow this pattern
- jandrese 6y agoI love it when you have two 10lb bags of sugar on the list, and because you left "allow substitutions" checked you get two 50lb bags instead. I can understand if you have to sub in the more expensive organic version, but the complete inability to use common sense drives me crazy.
