  • why anyone would want to go to a supermarket on boxingday is just beyond me! I find it odd that they come to my resturant after they have spent a fourtune on food and gourged to death on it on christmas :confused: day

    I know - Its crazy, not content with filling their trollies on Christmas Eve it would seem people are desperate for more, My 2 local Tesco stores had people queuing this morning to get in!:confused: :eek: (I hope it wasn't all you R+R'ers:rotfl: :cool: )

    every little helps in my opinion if tescos concentrate on more and more non food items i can see them opening up more and more on boxing day
    tescos do like to capture the market and will have to compete with other stores sales so next year could be 40-50 maybe all

    the 'thanks button' is necessary IMO, but I don't see the need for the individual 'thanks counter' as it leads to petty squabbles and people taking umbrage because you thanked so and so and not me.. etc etc..

    I hate the train of thought on here (MSE) that you can only 'trust' someone because of their post count or number of thanks! - I'd rather look at what has been posted and then make a judgement.

    Can't get to Tesco until tomorrow, will be slim pickings on the bargain front by then I reckon :rolleyes:

    Ironically that was such an insightful post that you will get a lot of "Thanks" for it :)
    Can I help?

    Clearly - Im sure it will help towards their Christmas trading figures though.

    TE because your staff have a day off on their normal working day do tescos still pay them?

    Do you mean because Christmas Day and Boxing Day fell on a Monday and Tuesday this year?? If so then staff get paid for those days.

    I guess so - And apprentley you can never have too many half price Tea Towels!:confused: , In reality though as you stated they will need to open their 'Extra' stores on Boxing Day as recent data shows that Tesco are due to overtake Debenhams and M&S to become the UKs Number.1 'Non-Food' retailer.
