The worse thing about Tesco is, in the half price special offer fridge, they ALWAYS slip something in there that is NOT half price.

3 times ive had to sign a receipt and get a refund. Look out , I wonder how many customers DONT check their receipts

Asda is mental.

An 18 bag Walker crisps cost £3.26 or something like that....but but 2 bags and it's £3..odd!

A tin of Napolina tomatoes cost 99p but 3 cans for £1.

Mental.

I'd never heard of them. I had to Google.

Was it worth the Google?

Oh aye.

Aren't Ocado part of Waitrose?

I hate Tescos. But they're like the Devil - always there to tempt me with their 24 hour opening times and their bakery section.

Our Asda is open 24 hrs a day. Their bakery is shit though apart from their baguettes.

And Krispy Kreme doughnuts

my eldest likes the pizzas there, i noticed the prices is 43p each or 3 for £1.30

i know it's only 1p more, but still it's marked as some sort of offer and people are stupid enough to look at that and think...ohhhh. (my OH being one of them till i pointed it out to him that 3x43 = 129...and that my son doesn't eat 3 in a week anyway lol)

I use Waitrose out of convenience & preference.

Both Tesco & Asda are far too chock-a-block 24/7. And I've had my car keyed more times that I care to remember in Tesco's.

At least I get a better quality scratch now.

It has to be said, I try and use my leedle local shops but the Uber-Tescos a few miles away does have an enormo-selection of organic stuff for pompous twats like me.

Plus it happens to be slap bang in the middle of where all our asylum seekers are put by the council. You get the most amazing stuff from all round the world in there cause of that. Recherché fresh herbs and spices that are you just cant get anywhere else. Funny.

I thought Asylum Seekers ended up in Scotland these days? Blimey. My Tescos has a Polish section now, which is nice if you like cheap tinned meat, cherry faux Jaffa Cakes, and bottled vegetable pieces. The Sainsburys in Belgrave Gate in Leicester has all sorts of fresh Indian herbs and spices.

I was in Grantham yesterday and there was a sign saying "You can speak Polish here" on the window of Gnat West. Knowing Gnat West, it probably means you won't get thrown out but the staff will just say: "Eh?", "Sorry?", or "SPEAK ENGLISH PLEASE". On a Saturday.

Me?

Last time I actually went into tesco and not online I bought 2 reduced price air freshener refills, both reduced to £2.42. When I got to till she asked for £6.96 and said one was not reduced, I got the runner to go and check and she came back and said it was their mistake and they should have taken the sign down but I now had 2 choices. I could cancel that transaction and then pay again and they would let both go through at the reduced price, or, pay the full price for one and reduced price for the other and then, because it was their mistake, I would be due double the price refunded. I ended up with the 2 air fresheners free and £3.60 something cash back

Just call me Gretchen

Supermarkets are weird.

I wandered into our local Asda the other day where they were selling a case of San Miguel for a fiver. People were carting trolley loads about

By the time my hubby got home from work and we got to the shop they were all gone. Helpfully one of the greedy staff had put one aside for them under a spare checkout which I found and bought

tescos are part of the church of scientology
they are trying to take over the free world
sometimes the mini-marts pop up overnight-no human hands (not even the polish builders) could build a small supermarket that quick
*beware*

You'd think that iTunes would be smarter

Or at Lidl.

Asda is way better than Tesco .
