in Old style MoneySaving
Is it my imagination, or my area, or are tesc0 phasing out LOADS of value products?
Just off the top of my head, I can no longer get value versions of
mint sauce
apple sauce
mustard
lemon squash
lemon curd
mouthwash
...and I keep seeing more stuff disappearing. On my 'favourites' list it says ''tesc0 no longer sells this product.''

Or is it just a tesc0 online phenomena?

    Mine seems to be the same. I did read a few weeks back that they were cutting down on the amount of lines they carry but I thought that was branded stuff not value. I guess they're not making enough profit from the value stuff.

    Seems like a lot of the everyday value stuff is being withdrawn.
