So you lost five days wages (or used up five days holiday pay) for items that cost only a few quid?
Here's a free tip for 'next time', order the items through a store, arrange to pick them up at that store, they are open until 8pm every night and also on Saturdays and Sundays, you can ask the staff there to ring you when they arrive, it's quite simple really, even if your nearest store is thirty miles away.
