    Isn't flouride added to the water in USA?
  • Some parts or the US and the Midlands are fluoridated. I believe Southampon will be. It makes you sound like the Prince of Darkness apparently. Helps you spelt correctly too.

    It was a very weak attempt at irony.

    As quite a savvy shopper, I stopped using Tescos.

    I found that most products were more expensive than other retailers, however the offers tended to be better.

    The choice is yours, if you buy the offers you are getting a good deal. If you dont, your paying for others to get the good deals.

    Your house was made of rice?

    I think in your particular case you have sufficient legal grounds to sue the surveyor.

    There are actually people who build houses out of rice husks. See http://www.greenhomebuilding.com/weblog/2004/12/amazing-rice-hulls.htm for example.

    I have Tesco, Morrisons, Somerfield, and Aldi in my area. Oh and Farm Foods. So for milk and frozen foods it's Farm Foods, and everything else it's Morrisons.

    When I returned to England 11 years ago I shopped at Tesco and somehow everything seemed more expensive when I got to the check-out than I'd thought it would be. That idea has never left me, and when I joined MSE I discovered why (and why people happily 'R &R'd). I hate Tesco and that didn't diminish when I heard that they (allegedly) weren't paying UK tax as their headquarters was overseas.

    There is also the small question mark over "Dame" Shirley Porter, the self-exiled heiress to the Tesco fortune, and mastermind of the Westminster City Council freemasonic illuminati gerrymandering vote-fraud swindle.

    More reasons to shop at Morrisons..
  • So you bought a product at Tesco for a price you were happy with at the time. Why are you upset at a cheaper price elsewhere - weren't you happy with the deal you got?

    You seem to have a poor grasp of how the market works. If the product sells for £3.59 then the stock in the pound shop is obviously clearance. Tesco don't mark things up 300%, and manufacturers don't offer fabulous 75% off prices on a permanent basis to pound retailers to annoy Tesco. If its in there for £1 its being cleared.
