If I am not mistaken, those FMCG brands within Iceland are identical to
those within my more upmarket shopping experience at Tesco. So as long
as I don't have to cross the threshold and join the great unwashed in
the Iceland store then what the hell do I care. This is a service that I
can see the benefit of, and my current intermediary is not offering it
to me, and the stuff is probably cheaper too. No brainer.

(For those who are ironically challenged, please use your imagination
with the second sentence of this post, before responding.)
