.....they practically invented the whole concept of the Value range back in 1993, .....

I worked for Tesco at that time and remember clearly that Tesco copied Kwik Saves "No Frills" range. The Value range was just a response to a threat from one sector of the market. What Tesco is good at is acting very quicky to percieved business threats. Kwik save indroduced the No Frills range in 1993 a few months later, in the same year, Tesco had responded with the Value Range.

The shelves were restocked again when I went first thing today - They seem to have loads but are only putting it out 12 or 20 at a time in my local one.

Didn;t buy any more though - I cant fit any more in my utility room - lol

Hope this helps someone

are you that shocked? its what tescos etc will do, now what washing powder will u buy? the next one up which is tescos only it costs more, as soon as supermarkets can raise the prices they will, its a long term goal as all little business' are being put out of business they gain a larger strangle hold on the population and we only have our self to blame

My dad had a village shop 30 odd years ago and always said that the supermarkets wouldn't stop until they had a monopoly through killing off all the small businesses and could then charge what they like and sell exactly what they like, taking away any choice. To an extent that has happened - it is very difficult to find many different brands like there used to be around - it is gradually becoming the supermarkets own label only!!
