Is the way of dealing with the myriad problems of home delivery really quite simple?
If retailers allowed shoppers to choose their delivery firm, economic logic would suggest (if delivery charges were flat) then the business should flow to the firm most acceptable to customers receiving parcels...
Might this be the answer to the frustration of missed, missing & damaged deliveries?

I think you're (both) right, costs is likely to be an issue with also the ability to run for free counting for some of that new exercise... that said the gym I attend is both low cost (and has a very easy cancellation policy) but of course you'd have to investigate in the first place to find that out....

The regulars at the gym I go to twice a week have noticed no real new year resolution driven surge of new members this year... and we wondered why?
Our best guess was the impact of weight-loss drugs; giving people a different route rather than gym training, to pushing weight loss as a news year commitment.
Not sure if that accounts for all of the absence(s) but it is very noticeable this year compared to others.
