Convenience stores/Newsagents

Why do the vast majority of them have their soft drinks fridges either turned off or barely on enough to actually keep the drinks cold?

Just been to one and bought some red bull clones, got home and they are not even slightly cold.

:mad:

You didnt notice they were not cold when you picked them up before paying? :confused:

It's just you. They watch your movements and run around switching off fridges. THEY ARE EVERYWHERE.

Sometimes they are lazy don't put new stock to the back. So if it isn't cold it might have recently been restocked?

Please don't sully this thread with your logic and facts.

All of them near me have the drink fridges REALLY cold. I tell the local newsagent owner if the drinks aren't cold enough (we're friends)

The Greggs I go to is terrible for having cold drinks, no way near being cold.

The ones near here are perfect. Others haven't been so great. Luck of the draw I guess.

Humans are able to perceive temperature in their fingers. You could use that

Here, let me wipe that sand out of your vagina.

I agree with you OP. Cans should be brutally cold so that it hurts to touch them even and I get annoyed when this is not the case.

But...10-15mins in the freezer and they are good to go.

If you can wait though..leave them in there for an hour....yum!

Yes I could feel that they were not cold, but I still wanted them so bought them anyway. This is not the first time nor the only shop I have experienced this problem at.

Thank you for listening.

The across the road has a horrible fridge for their milk. So I don't buy milk there. The one they have for juice is fine though, I get the odd can of Limeade from there... delicious

My local one has two slushy machines.

COME AT ME.

The Halk · 24 Jun 2012 at 18:24

I'd never buy a slushy - how long has that stuff been in there for? Ever seen one get cleaned?

Why do people even use convenience stores? they are terribly over priced, I see the same people use the one at the end of my road and they are blatantly people with not much disposable income and they choose to do their shopping at the corner store rather than walk a few extra yards to the Aldi or Asda store up the road :-(

Couldn't help myself.

I think you were being rhetorical though.
