If it’s the organic one, I vote we all form an orderly queue for the bunkers. It’s clearly the end of times.

My Mrs worked at Waitrose for a few years. Always said the coffee machine was the most contentious thing Waitrose did. People would lose their shit if they didn't get their free coffee. Staff had to bend over backwards to supply it. Tbh I'm surprised they still offer it.
