    I had never noticed it before that the little tesco stores price their stock at a a higher price than the big supermarket stores, i went into buy a box of special k cereal last night on my home at the little tesco on my estate and paid £3.11 for a box that i would pay £2.99 for in a bigger main store!

    I think it disgusting that they sting you on price for using their stores becuase they happen to be more conveniant than going to a larger store!

    Rahhhh!

    and while you're moaning they charge different prices in different parts of the country, too.

    In other words they charge what the market will stand...

    i'm going to one day come up with an elaborate plan to bring tesco down from the inside.

    get myself on a career break from work and get myself a job at tesco. once i'm in, i'll stack the shelves really slowly, so that they wont be able to sell much of their most popular stock because it'll all be in the warehouse.

    i'll bring tescos to it's knees, no matter how long it takes me

    it's spelt d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y
    there - 'in or at that place'
    their - 'owned by them'
    they're - 'they are'
    it's bought not brought (i just bought my chicken a suit from that new shop for £6.34)

    Our local convenience store has to risk a £60 parking ticket for its lorry to deliver (or park miles away).
    That's going to be priced in, as well as higher city staffing costs, higher rents etc etc
