they were planning on taking more than a quarter. more like a half but beggars cant be choosers can they.

if only shoppers can get to the shelves rather than clambering over staff that are stood about talking.

the place is very dangerouse with all that cardboard on the floor.somebody may slip and hurt themselves.

what a palaver matron

Their basket likewise

Was at ASDA today and the customer in front of me was using her Tesco 'Spend £30 get £10 off" vouchers on her shopping. When I asked about it, apparently whatever offers or deals Tesco have on, Asda will match it.

So anyone who got those vouchers through their door, you can spend them at Asda if you want.

Thats Blyth for ya

Speaking of meat, Tesco was selling chickens off for 31p yesterday, and mince meat for about the same! They were still in date by a day. I remember when Somerfield was there, they had a habit of selling funny coloured meat and I wouldnt care it was still twice the price of the butchers. Greedy !*!@# .

They`re all greedy...all they are concerned about is making money...what does it matter that they`re giving folk food poisoning? As long as they`re tills are "chinging"

Both Netto and Tesco were shut at 5pm on Christmas Eve. Much to the chagrin of this mid-50s UK Grime fan, all hepped up to buy tangerines and Advocaat.

Well they can go and ruddy well tickle in future. The jolly old Spar will be getting my bidness.

Oh my!

For the last few months the green shirts in Walmart have been asking our postcode. I guessed it was something to do with trying to stop the development. I thought they sounded scared.

Last week I did my final shop at Kingston Park... ugh, those big city folk in their 4x4s and the Burberry-clad urchins. I couldn't wait until I my own nirvana came to fruition.

Saturday. My clubcard vouchers came! 'Spend £40 and get £8 off'! Totally get telt!

Monday. I drive up and down the street, gazing at the happy shoppers, giddy with anticipation for Mr Vic finishing work so that we too can join in with this new fangled palace of joy.

Monday evening. It is Somerfield, but with aisles too narrow. And full of people who mustn't have found their way to Netto to buy soap in the great supermarket depression. Not a bruschettini, sun-blushed tomato nor French goats cheese in sight. The girl on the checkout asks me what my aubergine is. Then tells me she knows my courgette is a fruit, but is uncertain what kind it is either.

We escape down the ramp to an unlit and glass-strewn car park, happy in the knowledge that Bedlington has no intention embrace modernity whatsoever.

For flip's sake; it's a supermarket, selling cheap goods to the masses. Get an allotment.
