Online supermarket deliveries often throw up a few surprises, as substitutions are offered to replace out of stock items. However, one woman was left 'bemused' after her half a dozen eggs was replaced.
We all know that the shelves of some high street stores have been left bereft of eggs recently, with some supermarkets introducing rationing after supply problems. However, a Sainsbury’s shopper was left scratching her head when her delivery arrived with the eggs missing - she discovered a box of egg custard tarts as a substitute.
The shopper's experience was reported by the Mirror. She explained that she had made her order through Uber Eats, and says she wasn’t expecting to receive the two pack box of custard tarts as a replacement.
