Just been to Sainsbury's taken a dump at their toilets best of all supermarkets.

What I have seen of shop pickers in the supermarkets they just take the first item off the shelf, not even looking to see if the item is alright or has a good date on it.

I wish to add that I had this experience at my local Tesco,where I do the bulk of my shopping.

[imperial3] 10/8/2019 11:05

That may suit many people,but not me.I like to look at my fresh fruit and vegetables before I buy,as some have relatively short shelf lives.I do not want to see the first stages of them going off with tell tale marks.Examples are broccoli,cauliflower and strawberries.Time and time again,I have seen these on display when they should have been removed.With yoghurts and milk,for instance,I want to see the latest sell by dates.These are just a few that spring to mind.I for one,to not wish to rely on a stock picker for my shopping.Do you really think they are going to be fastidious,when they have so many orders to get through?! There is nothing that can beat one's own selection.No thanks,on line is not for me.

For example, when I buy clothes I like to feel what the material feels like. Shoes I like to try on and as for the little ones, I like to make sure their feet are properly measured and then to have properly fitted shoes.

I only buy a very few things on-line such as USBs, Flash Drives or Cameras etc every thing else I go into a bricks and mortar retail shop to buy.

When I hear about UK city centres failing this very much rings a bell "Thanks to various councils we have no parking in Dalton to encourage new shops to open. The Co op is a very nice shop with friendly staff. Thank goodness it is there. Some people do not have cars to travel."

My local city centre is so desperate to move cars to the park and ride which is a good 2 miles out side of the city centre that the council has closed 50% of the inner city parking spaces. For the parking spaces that are left costs over £5 to park for 4 hours.

I for one, in the wet with bags of shopping do not want want to walk down to the bus station, then take a 2 miles bus ride with all my shopping, then another walk around a huge car park looking for my car.

Because I live at the other end to where the park and ride is I either have to drive 6 miles to get there when it was just a 2 miles drive into the city centre or pay £12 return on the local bus for the family after a half mile walk to the bus stop with by bags in the wet.

My local city centre use to have small car parks dotted all round the city centre, which have been closed and sold off to build on.

If Private Equity made a bid, they would load Sainsbury's up with massive amount of debt, sell and lease back any free holds Sainsbury's may have then re-list on the stock market.

[muffinhead] 09/8/2019 13:57

TA target 161p for this duff old banger

[muffinhead] 09/8/2019 13:42

Private equity should make a bid and break the company up

Looks like a double bottom is now starting to play, if so, could get a decent run up

[ny boy] 07/8/2019 08:39

Support for a possible double bottom, June low 185.3p

Will keep a close eye, need a lower entry, see if the market allows me an opportunity or not

Who was it who posted when the share price rose to 208, how wrong my prediction was.

[tim 3] 06/8/2019 22:15

Then back up?

[loganair] 06/8/2019 22:14

I am still holding to my 150p low for the share price.

It is becoming like a trend, more veggies and plastic ban, taxes on the use of plastic products … Etc

Now, it is Sainsbury’s turn to introduce their new policy concerning the use of plastic in its stores. As a trial, the chain in Oxfordshire and Lincoln stores is giving its customers two choices, either they bring their own containers or they pay 30p for a reusable bag made from recyclable materials.

The chain is very optimistic about the action and expecting the elimination of the use of plastic in its stores by September.

In case this trial gives positive results the chain is expected to apply the initiative on its other stores around the kingdom.


I understand that the supermarkets are not doing this to be 'Green' rather then it saves them money on rapping the veg in plastic.

IMO one should consider todays market actions in many weaker performing stocks V the 100 point drop we have seen in the FTSE 100 following a circa 250 point drop in the US DJIA late yesterday.


Consider then


What kind of falls in such stocks can be expected if the DJIA sheds over 500 points in a couple of days

Followed by another 750 points in the following week

Then 1000 points in the week after that ?


RISK management it's called

OIL dropping lower now can do this IMO
