I didn't realise Tesco were responsible for the choices people make about their shopping.

I don't think that 20p choc bars from Tesco are really going to change people's behaviour or eating habits. If you're a chocoholic, you're gonna pay any price to get your fix!
Personally, I think that 20p is too much to pay for a Mars bar...they're horrid and I wouldn't eat them if they were giving them away. If they were flogging the Lindt chocolate for 20p, I might reconsider!

better advertising than tesco could have ever imagined.
i imagine they'll be flying off the shelves that bit quicker thanks to the 'totally irresponsible' daily heil.helpful tips
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)0 -
Now that article didn't make me think "gosh Tesco are evil and endangering the health of society"
It made me think "blimey, must get there this month and stock up."Little miracle born April 2012, 33 weeks gestation and a little toughie!0 -
guess where I shall be stopping off on my way to work tomorrow...0

What's the news in this?
Quite often stores cut the price of multi-pack choc bars AND there can be 50% free at the same time.
What a load of old cobblers from the Mail.0 -
Why is everone acting suprised? It is the "If there's no real news we'll just make some up" Daily Mail!
Not unsurprisingly the "Health Experts" is only one person, "National Obesity forum spokesperson, Tam Fry" Completely unbiased then.
