Re: The Tesco & Other non-Morrisons Supermarket Thread

So I work about right next to Tesco Tooley Street which is a concept store (which basically means they refurbish it in some way every three months). The latest additions are a "Harris and Hoole" coffee shop, which utilises some of the previously dead space on the upper level, and a "...

Re: Yet another Morrisons thread

Is there a Morrisons anywhere in the country where they still have the revolutionary swivelling banana hanging cage in use ? Morrisons Stevenston still does. Never once seen a member of staff behind the cage mind you. They appear to be anticipating a lorry load of bruised bananas, judging by the nu...

Re: The Tesco & Other non-Morrisons Supermarket Thread

Just for fun, in case anyone doesn't remember it (it had a very brief lifespan), the original Clubcard logo (acknowledgement: Logopedia ): http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110824183926/logopedia/images/thumb/8/80/Tesco_Clubcard_1995.png/300px-Tesco_Clubcard_1995.png It lives on though- thank...

Re: The Tesco & Other non-Morrisons Supermarket Thread

I always find the Morrisons toilets notably good...

On another note, I've not been a to Co-Operative yet that has a public toilet..

I've written a blog on them - not about toilets but nevertheless - http://ukretailers.blogspot.co.uk/2012/ ... -food.html

Re: Yet another Morrisons thread

New blog on Morrisons, happily the POS has changed but it's basically a rip off of Sainsbury's.

Re: The Tesco & Other non-Morrisons Supermarket Thread

A lot of talk about the big plans for Tesco, I visited one of their concept stores in london and also reviewed their wider plans... Will it work? Remains to be seen..

Ugh, Kwik Save anybody? I hope this is some kind of mistake.
I understand the response wasn't favourable from the higher up management..
