You may need to get a taxi back from the supermarket. If so, find out if the store has a company they use regularly and if there is a free-phone taxi service. It's a good idea to have the correct change with you for the minicab. Larger supermarkets are beginning to offer home delivery services. If supermarkets know that there is a demand for this service they will be more likely to provide it, so if you think it would be useful ask for it.
Most supermarkets have a free-phone number for customer care.
You could contact these numbers and find out what services are offered by particular chains. Some of these are listed at the end of this leaflet. Shopping locally Small local stores can be more expensive, so if you shop at a supermarket you may save more than the costs of getting there and back. On the other hand, a local shop may deliver and if not, take you round and give you a more personal service. Shopping at a department store Many towns have the 'big department store'.
