Been using aldi in the last year as well as Tesco even with 10% discount aldi do have a few lines cheaper ,and what is disturbing is just how much busier it has become .

A new low for 2018.

Log- repackaging. It's calling branding. They could reduce the box size and charge the same price. Remember because of pompus Brexit fools, the pound falling has put up pricing of imported products by 20%.

I suspect Tescos will make their stores more aligned to Waitrose.Then cheaper looking stuff, Jack's.I've shopped at Tescos, Sainsbury's etc but also have done my main shop at Lidl, Aldo for 15 years. What these two shops offer, also, Lidl is basic food which is enough. To suggest Tescos is cheaper is a lie. I was shopping at Lidl before the deluded middle-class , I'm middle class, thought an apple at Tescos was special and not the same as Lidl. The bottom line is this, if you want to budget temptations are limited in these small stores. People want to cut back, simple.

@buywell - Who would have thought it?
Nadeem Walayat would.
He thinks TSCO is a zero. Too much debt in the business.


On my chart the next week is critical.

200p again ... who would have thought it ?

[coffeeinsider] 22/11/2018 18:57

Completely agree !

I strongly dislike how Tesco are repackaging products in posher looking packaging with the same product then putting up the price by 15% to 20%. This is a real con job by Tesco's management.

Every little helps.

[philanderer] 22/11/2018 17:24

This is all getting very disappointing :-(

My friend who has been a committed Lidl shopper for the last few years has now come back to Tesco, she spends around £80 a week and says that Tesco is proving to be a better place to shop for both variety and price.

Just back from the local Tesco having spent between us just short of £100.

I've noticed how Tesco's have significantly raised their prices this year. My shop at the beginning of the year was around £34.50, buying exactly the same products, often with less amount in them this same shop now in the same Tesco is £40.20.

I have just been into my local Tesco. I noticed that they have repackaged there own brand of Bran Flakes into packaging that looks more posher and up market than their old packaging. I am disgusted to see that they have also increased the price by around 20%.

Tesco teams up with WWF to halve environmental impact of food shop

[philanderer] 16/11/2018 10:00

Agree vaneric , I'm still holding everything. Some of my best decisions have been to do nothing ;-)

[vaneric1] 16/11/2018 08:55

Just people running for cover philander, they'll be back.

[philanderer] 15/11/2018 17:13

My lot have been kicked in the b*ll*x today :-S

Yes, I think a lot of staff await payday and have no savings, so don't get beyond thinking about what to spend their money on when they get it.

'UK retail sales hit by mild autumn'

There was never any childcare available when I was at that age, we had to depend on relatives and neighbours.

As for SAYE that didn't exist either, saving was done by going to the bank and putting a few bob a week in a savings account and later whilst on National Service having it deducted directly from pay and put in the POSB (Post office savings bank)

By doing that I was able to have enough tucked away for a deposit on my first house aged 21.

I am severely peeved as I was in a previous SAYE at 150p and was obligated to get my contributions back due to taking a year off due to becoming a single parent.
Still, they gave me school hours now which fits in nicely.
Xmas is a pain as theres no childcare available.

When I use to buy Boots vitimum tablets there only use to be one label on the bottle, now there is a second plastic label on top of this original label giving unnecessary information that one does not need.

From my local surpoermaret I buy my carrots lose, years ago my mum would put them in paper bags that easily composted, now there are only plastic bags available to put lose fruit and veg in.

That's because the customers demand it Logan, they object to granny squeezing their unwrapped bread and veggies and wanted their purchases to last more than a couple of days before going off.
