It pays them to give it away Fangorn, waste disposal is an expensive cost on any business, they can't just take it to the local tip.

Agreed Phil
Local supermarkets should also be helping the Homeless where there is a large concentration of the latter.

Eg Watford for example
Local Sainsburys - not sure what they do with their left over/damaged food

Anything that cuts waste has to be a good thing :-)

They're all going down that route now Phil, Morrisons are running a tv ad campaign for their 'wonky' farm products on the pretence that it's for the farmer's benefit.
"We buy ALL the crop."

😊 👍



Budget supermarket Lidl is selling 5kg boxes of damaged fruit and vegetables for £1.50 at selected stores.

Part of an ongoing trial called “Too Good to Waste”, the boxes will be available for a limited time across 122 stores, with anything unsold being donated to charity.

Each one will contain a selection of imperfect or slightly damaged fruit and veg, packed by Lidl

Tesco to allow Clubcard customers to download vouchers whenever they want

If the planners have any sense they'll insist that the school and homes come first, these deals have in the past fallen through once the shop is up and running.

Lidl is planning to lead the development of more than 3,000 homes and a primary school in the discount supermarket’s latest tactic to secure planning permission for a flurry of new stores around London.

Evening hazl, no problem at all having a new thread. I did well on CTEC and hopefully it will climb back up again .

Yes TSCO is my best one for 2018 :-)

HI PHIL
I notice you started the thread for CTEC have just bought in and wondered if you would mind if we started a new thread?
I think the original header might put people off!
I'm hoping somebody else will offer as my charts don't often work!

Shore Cap reiterating 'buy'

Kantar Worldpanel showed Sainsbury's market share dipped by 0.4 percentage point to 16% in the 12 weeks to July 15, while Tesco's fell to 27.6% from 27.9%. Morrisons' market share was steady at 10.5%, and Ocado's edged up to 1.2% from 1.1%. 

"Football fever" bolstered by hot weather in the UK boosted supermarket sales by 3.6%, Kantar said, the fastest rate of growth so far this year.

Be interesting telling the wife that I
am just popping up to Jack's.

[ignoble] 24/7/2018 07:44

I like the name
Jack's ....different

[philanderer] 24/7/2018 00:04

Tesco is hiring staff for a new chain of discount stores called Jack's as it seeks to face down budget rivals Aldi and Lidl.

It looks set to open between 30 and 60 shops by changing existing stores or reopening closed ones.

The supermarket has now started recruiting for the project – sparking speculation that the first Jack's could open this autumn.

The chain has listed a series of job adverts with a closing date of August 10. They do not reveal much detail but make it clear that employees would not be working in a normal Tesco supermarket

I notice that on a lot of products Tesco pretty much match Lidl/Aldi, but I would think a near copy of their stores would see considerable savings on operating costs, especially if they copy the employment model. If they make it work I could see the model being rolled out across a lot more existing smaller Tesco stores. You have to wonder, what took them so long?
