Tesco Jumble sale!!

I swear I am never going to Tesco in Caister on a sunny afternoon in the summer holidays AGAIN.
It was full of people aimlessly strolling along, the shelves were a mess with empty boxes everywhere and could I buy a box of eggs?? very nearly failed as most of the boxes were smashed!
Do people not have respect for the staff who have to clean up or realise that if they destroy produce then Tesco will put prices up to counteract the loss on produce they need to throw out.
I think I'll go first thing or last thing at night in future. It really was like visiting a jumble sale.

During the 6 weeks holiday I point blank refuse to step inside any supermarket regardless of what I may need. Kids running around and screaming whilst all the parents stand in the middle of the aisles having a mothers meeting..........there really is nothing worse. Shop online and save the hassle.Everyones opinion is the most important.....no wonder nothing is ever agreed on.0

... or go early in the morning or late at night.
When I have to do a shop at the weekend (due to working commitments), I go on a Sunday and get there at 9.30am. You are allowed to "browse" (i.e. do your shopping) for half an hour before the tills open at 10.00. So by the time the tills open, my shopping is chosen and I am ready to check out and go! I find this time ideal as the store is nicely stocked up ready for the day ahead and there are only a handful of customers there - bliss0 -
Going early isn't too bad, but don't go late at night, sainsburys atleast run this huge scam where they don't replenish the shelves with basics bread of an evening to get you to buy the expensive stuff. Its a huge money making scam so don't be conned.....you've been warned LMAO :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Everyones opinion is the most important.....no wonder nothing is ever agreed on.0

Not just tesco but other supermarkets as well, it was annoying the way random things would be left on the shelves like frozen chips on tolet roll aisle. Either put the kids on some super strength elastic so they cant get far or maybe the supermarkets could have like an enclosed for the kiddys to be kept in whilst the parent does the shop.
But dont leave your kids in the car like this woman.0 -

dont feel pressured to buy a more expensive loaf, either ask if theres any out in the warehouse or just leave it till the followng day but dont start a thread on here about it.0 -
