    Or more to the point, are YOU, as you've just used the word you have such an objection to?! :eek:

    Do you not think if every retailer etc had their name censored out, it might make threads like those talking about special offers etc a bit hard for people to work out? "£5 off X-Y-Z product at S********" would leave people unsure whether they should be heading for Sainsbury or Superdrug! Or are you purely a Tesco-basher?
