Bunbury Farmers Market

Went to Bunbury Farmers Market today, normally with my carer/hubby but he was out of action so I shopped alone. I have a disability, bad hips/back, fibromyalgia, chronic pain and always struggle with shopping trolleys.- I pay the price for days later..But today I found that Bunbury Farmers Mkt had purchased new SMALLER trolleys..might have been there a week or so but they were new to me since my last visit a fortnight or so ago. A BIG thank you to management for this consideration. I'm sure it will make a lot of difference to people with a disability, the elderly or just those who want to do a smaller shop and don't want to lug a basket around or struggle with a big heavy trolley. It might only be a small thing to some but its a major leap for me. I know supermarkets have had smaller trolleys for years and they may be taken for granted by most people, but a quiet thank you to them too. I did my normal shop, with a lovely clean, new, SMALLER trolley with no wobbly wheels and for once I went home with no more pain than I arrived with. Thanks again Bunbury Farmers Market top job..now that is great customer service!! ** Now all we need are more ACROD parking days please.

I usually always write positive reviews for the BFM but last week was most disappointed when I got home from my f/tly shop (having spent a good $200) to open not 1 but 2 packets of their biscuits..ANZACS and Gingernuts to find them both soft and tasting like uncooked mix. I rang to tell them but the girl just said well you can only get a refund if you have the receipt (which I did) and bring them back..being someone who suffers chronic pain and not willing to drive for a 3/4 hour round trip for biscuits I said that's OK I wont do that, I think it's more important you know I dont think the biscuits were cooked long enough. She went and spoke to her supervisor and came back and said " they are supposed to be soft!". Well I'm sorry but I totally disagree. We have bought those biscuits on many occasions from the BFM (although in themselves not cheap but our treat)... they have never been soft before and traditionally ANZACS & gingernuts are a crisp (& ANZACS sometimes chewy if home made but not soft) biscuits...they wouldn't have lasted long if they were sent off to the soldiers back in the day if they were moist & soggy... I wonder how many biscuits are cooked in a batch and how many dissatisfied customers dont say anything but never go back?? Will I buy them again..not sure..might have to open them in the store and test them before driving home..they are usually beautiful biscuits- a 5 star product but not today. I just thought their kitchen might have been interested..maybe a new baker, maybe cutting back on cooking time . Who knows.
