Shops & supermarkets under lockdown!

[Spitfire58]

Our home delivery arrived from Fran y Chemi this afternoon. An excellent selection of fruit and veg.

Looks like nice fresh fruit & veggies Stephen but if you actually work it out do you think it is good value. Not saying it’s not, just 20 quid seems a lot for that amount. But granted, hard to tell from a pic I suppose

We're happy with what we got and it was delivered

I had to go to the Medical Centre this morning so decided to go to Mercadonna while I was out when I passed heading to Fran Y Chem at around 10:45 there were two Guardia at the entrance, when I came back around 20 minutes later they had gone, so no issue getting entry however as I was leaving they were back again, checking where everyone was coming from??

Dino Express in Cotillo (in the Cotillo Beach Hotel building) is closing today. All the stock (and hopefully the lovely staff) is being moved to the Superdino on the road from El Roque (first building on the right as you enter El Cotillo).

CALETA: HiperDino EXPRESS, WHITE CENTRE

This store is now closed. The only Dino remaining open is the one on the main street opposite Caleta Gardens.


CALETA: HiperDino EXPRESS, MAIN STREET

Was in this afternoon. Busier than I would prefer giving that it is now the only Dino open in the lower part of the town. (I don't know if the one up the hill is still open, but between the adjacent tourist accommodation staying open to house the island's remaining holidaymakers and all the residential accommodation in the upper part of the hill, I'm guessing yes?) Decent stock of most things, running a little low on fresh salad, etc, but generally well stocked. No newspapers or magazines of any kind, though. Gloves optional at the door. No wipedown procedure instituted. Some people not respecting the distancing at all— I know you can forget sometimes, but a woman came right over on top of me at one point and I had to just give up and back away until she left. (I wasn't being slow or hogging an area at all, I had just gotten there and lifted one thing.)

Very disappointed that the White Centre Dino has closed as there were a lot of specific items available there which aren't available at this store that we will now have to try to carry back through the scrub from Mercadona (assuming we're allowed to get there).

The one in Monte Castillo was open this morning, but not at all busy.

I was in that Dino on wednesday (25/3).  The Brit shop opposite was also open; both were uncrowded

Anyone know Spar in Atlantico's opening hours for tomorrow?

[Emmi Smith]

According to Google it opens at 9.00 .  Doesn't give a closing time though.

Thanks, folks! Will report back on the situation if I make it there this week.
