30% off all Food Stock when Spending £30 or more.
A short while ago we re-branded from Bean & Grain to Barney’s Befuddled Shop, diversifying our product lines; but the fundamentals of online shopping have still beaten us. The cost of a food customer acquisition is just too close to, or more than the margin we make on a typical shopping basket.
We have discounted all food lines by 30% at the checkout when spending £30 or more but of course still have to charge post and packing. Some goods are past their Best Before, e.g. some flour, but they are marked as such and we’ve checked them and they are still good. Any left over stock will go to One Can Trust, our local food bank.
Louise and I would like to thank you for your custom, it was both fun and kept us sane during the COVID-19 lockdowns. At 'peak business' we had 70 suppliers on the books and 2500 customers so it wasn't all bad.
We're committed to the shop software license for a year so Barney's may still be around for a while with non perishable goods in 'hobby mode'. We’ll be emailing you soon with details about our new venture, a community project, but that is not directly food related so please hit the un-subscribe if it’s not relevant.
Kind regards,
David & Louise.
