Tesco Share Discussion Threads

I agree Smartypants. Solid set of results, ahead of market expectations, muted response from City. Suspect they are still fretting over the fact we've stopped by sofa's.....

[smartypants] 16/6/2017 08:26

Wait.....
There is some good news
The darling of the market, Morrisons is doing well today
Perhaps due to not paying the boss for such a poor performance?

[smartypants] 16/6/2017 08:11

Ha Ha
For a moment there the share price was almost as high as yeterday
Well thats all the good news for today
Back to the doom and gloom (induced) decline
The only things left to see here today are
How big the red number will be by the end of the day
And how many despites thee will be in the reporting of it?
Despite beating, despite growth, despite....etc etc..

Not a lot of interest on show here?

"Tesco romped off to a strong start to its new financial year, with the grocer delivering first quarter UK sales ahead of City expectations.

UK like-for-like food sales up 2.7% and UK total LFL sales up 2.3%, versus a consensus forecast of 1.9%, saw group LFL sales increase 1.0%."

No news good news ??????

local councils allowing lidl aldi to build anywhere just to fill the space
not thinking of the damage being done just like the burnt down tower
profit comes first second and third ,

they pay very little tax in the uk all profits go back to german

the uk public then moan about services ,

[ignoble] 15/6/2017 17:25

Aldi and Lidl showing the way
Just can't see what the big boys can do about them
The Big Boys have location on their side but Aldi will gradually open more stores to compete in more locations.
Just my opinion ....even my local Waitrose is losing it's edge. Noticeable fall in staffing levels and the like

Tesco is testing a new app that gives customers free delivery, instantly, with no minimum spend - and we can tell you how to get it.

The app, called Tesco Now, allows customers to order up to 20 items, with free delivery within 60 minutes, and is currently available in London's Zones 1 and 2.

Your order, made via a phone app, is passed on to a courier who personally visits a store, buys your items, and then delivers them by bicycle.

The weirdest online delivery subsitutions

Right now, the service is free, although the website indicates that by the time it launches officially it will cost "£5.99 delivery within 60 minutes... or £4.99 if two hours is fast enough for you".

Tesco Now has been under wraps for two years, but came to light when bargain hunter Tom Church of LatestDeals.co.uk spotted a Quiqup bicycle courier delivering Tesco carrier bags, who explained to him how it works.

More than half face online shopping and delivery nightmares

Tom says that when he tried the service, he ordered a single bottle of beer - and it arrived still cold.

"I asked my flatmate what they thought of the app. The first thing he asked was 'do they have paracetamol?'," says Tom.


"He had a stinking headache and would have paid any price to get his hands on some there and then. I can see many examples of this where Tesco Now would be useful."

Other members of LatestDeals.co.uk said they relished the idea of 'fakeaways': ordering their favourite meals from Tesco and enjoying them as a takeaway.

The 17 supermarket shopping rules to save you money in 2017

So how do you get the app?

While Tesco Now hasn't yet been officially released, you can get a trial version of the app if you follow these steps:

First, you need to install a special app on your phone that developers use to test their apps. For Android, you should install HockeyApp; for Apple iOS, download TestFlight.

Second, you should send an email to [e-mail]" with either "I'd like Tesco Now for Android" or "I'd like Tesco Now for iOS" in the subject line. This is an automated service, so you must use those specific words.

You will then receive an automated email response within 48 hours with a unique link to download Tesco Now through HockeyApp or TestFlight.

"This is a major move for Tesco. It plonks them right in the middle of the battle for instant delivery. They're taking on Amazon Fresh and even the likes of Deliveroo, a company recently valued at over £1 billion," says Tom.

"CEO Dave Lewis is a marketing man, and I can understand why he'd want to test this. Fast delivery is a major sell for consumers."
