    And that can only be a good thing.

    On the other hand, they probably have many more import things to moan about, but since this is the shopping board, shopping related moans are all the are allowed to mention.

    Anyone who looks at a moan, on topic and in the right place, then thinks that must be the only thing the poster has to moan about, must be short on something.

    Don't forget, you are in here reading it, so obviously you don't have anything else to do.

    Well if my local netto is anything to go by I am glad they are going to be taken over as perhaps then there health and safety policy will improve.

    Not sure about other stores but ours is dirty, stock on the floor, just the other day an assistant dropped some plastic milk bottles on the floor which fell of the trolley ok that happens but he never picked it up straight away but left it there on the floor for a good half hour while he did another job.

    I have also noticed they never rotate there stock as there is loads of out of date stock on the shelf's.

    Ok they are cheap but there is no excuse at all for a dirty store and correct handling of stock.

    I will never go there again until the store has been refurbished into an asda.


    well i cant imagine asda keeping the same h&s standards as were present when it was a netto store
  • The Netto near me has changed into a UGO !
    Wish it could have been an ASDA

    Our Netto re-opened today as a Morrisons. Local paper had a coupon in to save 20% during first week.

    Considering every netto store is being closed for two weeks for a refit and going by the video's includes decorating and new floors I do not think that is the case.

    The netto near me has many broken floor tiles just think of the germs that breeds.

    Next time you go into a netto's have a good around you will be surprised at the mess.

    Visited the new UGO store (ex Netto) and it was empty of people. The prices are nowhere near as cheap even though it has all the similarities of Netto. People round here not fooled by it. I don't think it will last long.

    You have had 1 hostile response out of about 15 replies and you class that as no one being nice to you?
