The grocery delivery has arrived, they mostly did good this time. Nothing completely skipped and just one dodgy substitution that has been refunded. I sometimes wonder about the people filling the orders, it should be fairly simple to see that substituting 12 eggs for 6 is not equivalent. I've had them do that to me before, and if they were charging equivalent unit pricing it would be fine, but I'm not happy to be paying a premium to get less than I ordered. Oh well, it's slightly annoying but in the end I got free eggs.
