    The Co-op might be closed but the Post Office inside will still be open. This just in case there are any .orgers like me who need to collect their Pension.

    that is where i most likely will end up, but not so handy away at the other side of town without a car, and a baby to take in a pram, best idea will be stock up and avoid going out for the few days, will save money in the end that way to.

    If it is a struggle to get out Frasers shop on Castlegreen Road will take your order over the phone and deliver it to you the same day if you stay in Thurso. Been a great help to us during illnesses in the past when confined to the house.

    I get on with the delivery people really well too! They always help me put the shopping away and that! So nice o them! And to me it is cheaper!

    If i went to the tesco i would be spending about £60-£70 because i will walk past things and think its a great bargain and then a taxi home is £3. If i buy online i spend about £40 then the £4.50 delivery! So i cant go wrong with online shopping!

    And takin my son in the car seat is a pain!!

    that is good that the Thurso Coop is getting a makeover BUT what happened to the Wick store? Safeways were bought over by them a long time ago now and I personally have never heard which store they are going to be occupying. Best look out to see if Wick Coop is going to get a makeover too then.
