Hermes is to rebrand as Evri

"It is a statement of intent of our commitment to leading the way in creating responsible delivery experiences for ‘Evri one’, ‘Evri where’."

More info (including a picture of a van).

Morrisons is a bit different in this regard I suppose - if it's not Savers branded, it's a brand that's named after one of their sites or a company they've bought out (and the packaging is otherwise identical). Ah, yes. I don't live that close to a Morrisons so forgot about them and the Saver range...

You'll probably be aware that Asda's Smart Price range got some publicity lately as it was fully restored to stores following a reversal of an earlier decision to withdraw some of the range (and increase prices of some products). Wandering round a non-Asda shop earlier, I did wonder whether any of t...

So the NX/Stagecoach merger (takeover) is confirmed as going ahead . I lied. Well, maybe. The Competition & Markets Authority still wanted to look into it, and in the meantime another offer came in so Stagecoach has provisionally agreed a sale to DWS Infrastructure. More info . NX look like the...

Sainsbury's are closing the majority of their Cafe's - some to be run by external companies such as Carluccio's or Starbucks. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-60574697 I noticed there's a new range of Carluccio's pizzas and expensive ready meals in the chilled aisle at a larger store near me. Wo...

It is a treat, but full credit to woah who picked up on this image set further up!

Asda filling stations built in the 90s doubled up on those huts, set them further back and made them drive thrus: https://www.google.com/maps/@52.9672304,-1.1717061,3a,75y,44.37h,84.24t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s-qbg_0ZhdE4ksQAW2vYDJA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656 This is interesting.

Whilst we're on this topic, lol @ the Nectar app telling you to carry around a Nectar card to use at pay-at-pump instead of taking out your mobile phone...

that store is oddly large in general. was it formerly a sava centre perhaps? do you need to be a costco member to use their petrol station? The entire infrastructure around straiton and its retail parks is horrendous. You probably already know there has been a Sainsbury's (and a former Homebase - w...

Sainsburys at Straiton in Edinburgh (next to ikea) has finally had its disaster of a canopy replaced, yet still makes you go into the shop to pay Have always wondered why they felt this store needed 16 fuel pumps.
