Yes my parcels are up 150%, used to average around 60 per day and now its in the region of 150-160 per day, totally unmanageable and therefore I leave between 2-6 loops a day in.
CUT OFF!!!

A lady said to me the other day she was "getting the Christmas shopping in early". Maybe it has begun :shock:
