[QUOTE="Tim G, post: 8425188, member: 117"] We tried delivering for a bit, it meant setting up a seterate limited company to keep within the rules. We delivered once a week and made a small charge for it. Like most things at the time (lockdown 2020) it started well but fizzled out within a year. Most couldn't get their heads around the delivery charge,amazon did it for free, why couldn't we. I even explained to one customer how the van wasn't free, the fuel wasn't free, tax, insurance etc, even that we had to pay someone to make the deliveries. Her response was that I could do the deliveries and save paying someone. I stopped short of saying she should get herself her own cow and have 'free' milk. [/QUOTE]
