We are all doomed no amount reduced plastic will save us.We must stop eating meat stop driving cars stop flying on holiday's. Turn off all lights and give all our money to charity.And even then that won't be enough.I feel sorry for the children.

Call me old school but I'm far more interested in the quality of the product than the bloody packaging it comes in.........

Plus black plastic can only be recycled to black plastic.

I note that they have done away with the black trays for their ready meals, they are still using PET but it's now a pinky colour, that's one of the complaints the council recyclers had, they said the black stuff couldn't be picked out by the recycling equipment so had to go in the landfill.

Your post is a bit vague albert which Thatcher's cider? Gold is at £9.00 at Tesco at the moment. Haze is £9.50

[albert3591] 22/1/2020 12:56

£9.75 in Morrison’s at the moment.

[albert3591] 22/1/2020 12:55

Thatchers haze cider £8 at its lowest before Xmas £13 now,they will drop the price in the future and call it a reduction.The bounders.

[vaneric1] 18/1/2020 13:56

Nothing really, I saw there was a chance of the price dropping and sold, actually at the top for once, then bought back in using the difference to add to my holding when it dropped by 4p,it's holding now at what I paid but looking forward to it rising again in the coming months.

Vaneric what was the catalyst that made you get back in recently?
I have been in a while as you likely know.

I do a fair bit in property although its all cheap stuff but yield good. I tend to mostly use etfs from around the world to heavily deal with property.

Been trading only, a few years now. No interest in investing for the long term again until next big recession. apart from metals

Compared to sector drops of 2019, the divergence in the flows to date is truly savage compared to january's of the past few years etc

I think a lot more selling has to come.

Of course need to see weight of sector technical orders of the next few days

However if you would like a statistic - and its subjective, the deepest sector sell off in recent history was mid 2018, around 28%

Obviously the sector itself has recovered in that time, 22% of that
But wow - the money leaving the sector approaching December high is phenomenal compared to last 3 years, at tesco high of 2019

Truly worth monitoring for bulls as much as bears. I think if the sector drops below 6185 next week or week after - its really time for bulls to book out of tesco

Gonna save capital and also the time cost - maybe a 20% saving in months even

[sentimentrules] 18/1/2020 10:09

Is on breakeven now though - general retail sector has pulled back to volume 200 and stalled, so risk off at this point - see how goes there in tesco. Big point for the sector compared to june/july 2109

[sentimentrules] 18/1/2020 10:00

Doesnt really matter though does it? Short tesco and in profit . Ultimately its all that matters regardless. Bottom line

[vaneric1] 18/1/2020 09:50

Well that's the most posts I've seen on here for a long time and the most amateur economist tosh.

You seem to be a cross between Corbyn style "The state should own and run everything." Communism and Alice in Wonderland.

I rarely use supermarkets at all now. Did a lot of research into local farms or farms that distribute nationally . Organic farms.

I get nearly all food from them direct and it works out at around supermarket prices. They just make more because no chain involved and foods do not go through all the processes

Honestly lads.. you will feel ten times better after a month, doing it this way. Worth researching the farm direct suppliers. I used to have a sinus allergy they could never figure out. It went and never came back after 6 weeks of food from those sources so whatever it was, was occurring in the middle of farm to supermarket chain somewhere

At least the BOE hasn't been as bad as the others with the Fed and ECB printing money as through there is no tomorrow with the granddaddy of them all being the BOJ who has bought up something like 40% of the Japanese stock market to no avail.


As for which supermarket is the cheapest on their weekly shop is nothing more then mindless rubbish. At my local supermarket when the cereal I buy goes on offer I buy 6 months supply and when the toilet paper went on offer I bought a full years supply as I do for my washing softener making sure I have enough to keep me going until they go on offer again. Once my wife's tampons went on offer, I've only seen it happen the once so I bought every single packet that was on the shelves, nearly 4 years supply.

Therefore many items I only buy when on offer and do not buy on a weekly basis. And many items I do buy on a weekly basis I only do so when they are on offer which makes for a good variety of different and varied meals. About the only thing I ever pay full price for is milk as it is about the only item I buy every week.

I have calculated that I save a good £600 plus per year / £6,000 plus in 10 years by the way I shop and takes no effort at all.
