BRITISH WOMEN ‘SEAL THE DEAL’ WITH A LEAP IN PROPOSAL PURCHASES

Today is the day when women propose to their boyfriends and OCADO has reported a change in deliveries this week as love-struck women prepare for more than just a traditional proposal. The online grocer has seen today’s deliveries of romantic, sometimes risqué, goods soar as British women hope to woo their men into wedded bliss.

If all goes well, it’s sure to be a night to remember, following the increase in sales of:


– Massage oil – sales up 133 per cent

– Candles – sales up 32 per cent

Proving that the way to a man’s heart is, of course, through his stomach, it seems that loved-up ladies are also hoping to bake their way to the alter…


– Pink icing – sales up 200 per cent

– Heart-shaped cookie cutters – sales up 127 per cent

– Cake sparkles – sales up 33 per cent

– Italian Red Wine – sales up 5 per cent

Ocado is making life easier for those planning proposals by celebrating with a range of special leap year offers. The emporium of food has discounted many aphrodisiacal ingredients, in addition to a selection of traditional grocery essentials, by a fitting 29 per cent.
