My Ozzie wife, bless her, has discovered the joys of interent shopping and has now joined the short list of other Aussies who now realise that they have been paying over the odds for shoddy goods for years. The UK and the US provide her with most of what she wants now.

Whilst googling she somehow got to a Tesco website selling clothes. She saw a coat of £20.00 which she has seen for $300.00 here. The website states that Aus isn't on their maling list.

So, she emailed customers service and received a reply that Tesoc has had so many enquiries from Oz asking for delivery here that they are now thinking about addingOz to their list of destinations.

All right, we now it isn't great quality gear that they are offering but for everyday kickabout stuff it would be good. Watch this space.

I've found that even if Australia isn't listed on their delivery details page if you contact them they normally will do it and give you a quote for a price.

Cheers, I'll let her know.

ever hear of borderlinx?

Que?

Apparantly she tried that and got the knock back

Oh frig. Sorry Sherlock. I tried on m and m direct and they did it and Oliver Bonas. Apparently Tesco's profits were down significantly this quarter - time to open up to British expats!

No worries, maybe they didn't understand her....I'll have a go.

Latest update is that Tesco is in the PROCESS of adding Australia to its list of destinations so we should be right soon.

Or if you still have friend's/relatives in the uk, you could always have it delivered to their house and have them send it out to you.

Come on Tesco's- get yer act together. Then I can send for cheap cotton undies without having MIL get them- last lot she sent were granny pants!!

I am indebted to Ozzieeagle for suggesting that we get organised on BE and get lots of people to email tesco asking for delivery to Australia. Perhaps you could add a note on this thread as and when you have emailed them.

Will I be able to get a weeks groceries delivered for a fiver then?

I'll join this crusade. What's the Email address?
