Since a big Waitrose opened locally, the demographic of the Tesco has plummeted, and the range they stock has changed to fit. Sorry, but I don't eat frozen chip-topped-curries. I prefer food. Comparing like-for-like, and quality-for-quality, Waitrose is not vastly different on price to Tesco. The nearest there is to a problem comes in the fact that your trolley mysteriously fills with lots of scrummy stuff you really don't need, but just can't help yourself buying.

Yes, I noticed they do curry pies too. Our Tesco doesn't seem to bad, customer or staff wise. Its nowhere near as pleasant as a shop though. >Comparing like-for-like, and quality-for-quality, Waitrose is not vastly >different on price to Tesco. Its sometimes hard to know for sure on quality, but quite a few things are cheaper in Tesco by as much as 1/3, although Waitrose has had to compete more in the recession. Fizzy bottled water and some other things where quality isnt much of an issue, are a lot cheaper. The Tesco Finest range is often hard to tell apart from Waitrose. >The nearest there is to a problem comes in >the fact that your trolley mysteriously fills with lots of scrummy stuff >you really don't need, but just can't help yourself buying. This is true, its even worst if you go to John Lewis food hall or Selfridges. -- Mike. .. . Gone beyond the ultimate driving machine.

I could drop my broadband bill to �6 a month from the �20 it is now but I wouldn't get the same usage. -- Conor I'm not prejudiced. I hate everyone equally. |
