An Asda customer was left baffled when she found her brand new microwave in her bin after the delivery driver dumped it there.
Joanne Simpson bought the kitchen appliance from Asda and was puzzled when she received an email saying it had been delivered.
She couldn't find it and even went to her neighbours to see if it had been collected.
Joanne finally found it while she was tossing out her garden waste and spotted it covered in the grass inside.
She says she is now drying the new appliance off after being in the bin and hopes it will work.
Joanne, from Sunderland, Tyne and Wear, today said: "I thought it was ridiculous as Asda said it would be delivered as I knew I was home.
"It was delivered a day earlier when no one was home."
She says she went to her neighbours, who always take her parcels for her, to find out if they had the new microwave.
Joanne claims she emailed Asda to find out where her delivery was but says the emails kept bouncing back.
She added: "The microwave currently is drying out in the garage. Once I open it and test if everything works I will contact Asda."
Asda has been approached for comment.
It comes as a Sainsbury's customer was also left baffled when they cancelled his order, blocked his account then refunded him to an account he could not access.
In June Lee Sanders, 52, bought some shopping for around £50 from Sainsbury's online as a click and collect order, using a gift card and credit card.
But when he went into the Battery Park branch of Sainsbury's in Birmingham to pick it up he found that the order had been cancelled.
Not only this, but the supermarket barred his account.
They then refunded the order - but put the money back in the barred account he was locked out of.
After The Mirror intervened, Sainsbury's unblocked his account.
A Sainsbury’s spokesperson said, “Mr Sander’s account was suspended due to processes we have in place to protect our customers from fraud. We’re sorry for the inconvenience this may have caused and his account is now active."
