Deals across the Ascot Road store, often on large packages and hefty items, are expected to increase the weight of shoppers’ bags “significantly”, bosses have said.
Once customers have paid for their shopping, those who need help carrying heavy or large items to their car should go to the store’s customer service desk, where a call will be made to the “strongperson” to come and help.
