Re: High Street chain collapse sweepstake
I recently visited an Extra service station and it was very nice but, that logo is definitely designed to look as similar to McDonald’s isn’t it? (It had a Burger King). https://extraservices.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Extra_SkeltonLake_July2020-96-2.jpg Do we have an official thread on motor...

Re: Yet another Morrisons thread
A local McColls has a " Morrisons Daily coming soon" poster in its window. Which begs the questions 1 - is this the end of the Safeway brand... again 2 - the shop in question is a large, modern, decent ceilinged, well lit branch. But McColls have some right run down dumps, would Morrisons ...

Re: The Tesco & other non-Morrisons supermarket thread
I’ve been meaning to comment on the new M&S self-service checkouts for a few months, as wherever I’ve encountered them I’ve found them to be terrible. I only had two items but they didn't seem the quickest. The new zebra undocking tablets on the tesco scan as you shop is a massive improvement o...

Re: The Tesco & other non-Morrisons supermarket thread
So in addition to Tesco moving to Nixdorf hardware for their newer tills, I noticed M&S have replaced a load of NCR fastlane machines with DN units but with a different (presumably DX?) software on them.
What have NCR done wrong to deserve all this?

Re: The Co-op Thread
As a result of the takeover Costcutter also moved from using Nisa's own 'Heritage' label (which they had recently swapped to from P&H's 'Independent' label) to Co-op too. It was a rather rapid improvement in quality. The speed of the Jacks replacement of Euroshopper and Happy shopper brands is ...

Re: The Tesco & other non-Morrisons supermarket thread
What a great site. Would love to see a long read on the Calais store (or stores plural judging by this map ) which I remember reading about as a kid in one of their mags but never knew anything more about it. Vaguely remember seeing that Tesco had one as well, don't know if any other chains did? We...

Re: How was Your Christmas Day?
I find christmas came out of nowhere this year. I think the general panic around energy prices etc just removed everyone's sense of fun.
Like how Boris ruined Christmas for the previous three years...

Re: Shops with excessive tannoy announcements
Headsets appear to be the way now at B&Q. There used to be walkie talkies (locally bought) / departmental dect phones (central) in my day but they were always broken and therefore the tannoy got used instead. I've never heard a tannoy at B&Q for ages. Which is good bc the music is once again...
