Superdrug

No bag full

From Mr P. J. Thomas, MRPharmS

Martin Crisp (PJ, 21 October, p484) expressed surprise at Kyle Brown’s reaction to the Superdrug “bag” (PJ, 14 October, p450). My experience was equally surprising. When I presented my paper bag at the local Superdrug branch I was met with blank looks and a long delay. A telephone call was made and I was told the offer to fill the bag with “supergoodies” was, in fact, a misprint or a typing error. I returned home with an empty bag. Perhaps I might have fared better if I had wanted a career with the company.

MARTIN CRISP, head of pharmacy, Superdrug Stores Plc, responds:

I would like to apologise sincerely to Mr Thomas and any other pharmacist who experienced this misunderstanding. It is great to hear that people are as interested in our products as they are our job opportunities. As I mentioned in my previous letter we will take on board all the feedback received.
