Problems getting JWB?

    Is there a shortage of James WellBeloved around? I usually have my girls on the fish and rice one, but the last two times I've gone to get more my usual shop (on the Long Mile Road) hasn't had it and has said they're having problems getting it in. I've switched to Symply Salmon and Potato, which is just as good, but it's the same price an JWB for a smaller bag. I don't drive so I can't really shop around.

    Is anyone else having a problem with getting their hands on JWB?

    Could you not order it online instead?

    My first thought as well; delivery to the door, cheaper prices & bigger selection (only problem is that other things such as treats and toys have a tendency to sneak in on the orders as well :o ).

    They do that.

    I work, so I can't really get stuff delivered because then I have to get to the pick up, and I don't think ParcelMotel have big enough lockers for 15kg of food. I was wondering mainly if other people are finding the same, and then I could rebudget accordingly for the Symply, or if other places have it I'd be able to work out a public transport route that I could take with my trolley to get it.

    I used to get a wonderful food delivered by a small Irish company that would use a taxi to drop it at my home of an evening, but they unfortunately went out of business a few years back.

    Have you tried MaxiZoo? The one in Finglas stocks JWB so I'd assume the rest of them do too?

    You could get it delivered to your work address perhaps? But if you're commuting by public transport, probably a non-runner :o

    Yeah, I am. I work in a secure place too so they wouldn't be able to deliver.

    I'm learning to drive soon though, so I'll have more options when I've done that.

    What about a neighbor or a friend or even parents or the like?
