Eric_Collins Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Not many things get my goat but this really gets me going ! I've been looking to buy a poppy for about a week now and S5 shops don't seem to be forthcoming with them. Joblot Best one ASDA (totally supprised me this) These are major shops on the estate and fail to sell poppies to help our war dead and injured. I managed to put money in a poppy box in a shell petrol station on the A57 but didn't get supplied even a poppy. Totally disgusted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulhodgkins Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Strange, is that. I got mine, and a wristband, from the poppy stall at the bottom of the escalator, in Asda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy C Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 so how about you volunteer for the Royal British Legion and sell poppies in the S5 area - perhaps those shops haven't been approached? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad you said that, I thought I must have been imagining the POPPY STALL IN ASDA!! Yup, they are definitely on sale in Asda. I wonder if it's the same Asda that the OP went to??
