I do not very often complain but I was stunned when told 'we don’t have any butter' at SAINSBURYS of all places when served coffee with ‘buttered teacake’ a couple of weeks ago so I wrote to them asking WHY!
Nice reply,
Thank you SAINSBURYS

Hello,
Nectar 055-----
Today we shopped in your Truro Store for our usual weekly shop and decided to go to your restaurant for coffee and teacakes. The receipt states *CAFE TEACAKE & BUTTER but we were served with FLORA which is not butter, we asked the member of staff for BUTTER but he said ‘there is no butter’
Could you enlighten me as to why you advertise BUTTER and give FLORA margarine please? We don’t like FLORA!

Thank you,
Geoff Camden Wiles
