The store I work in has gone through them all, apart from the latest coral-style.

It's the summer dip when traditionally the number of orders for home shopping falls for a few weeks as the main holidays get underway.

Re: The Tesco & Other non-Morrisons Supermarket Thread

Metros have three subdivisions - I was only reading about this in the internal newspaper yesterday. IIRC they're Classic, High Street and Community. Tooley and Kensington are considered 'classic'.
