Hard to get hold of the guardian - no sensible retailer stocks product that doesn't sell

[bountyhunter] 23/12/2020 20:11

I was thinking of the Guardian although its only improvement over the Mail is larger pages! ;-)

[konradpuss] 23/12/2020 19:34

The Daily Mail comes to mind!

[bountyhunter] 23/12/2020 19:12

That's about the only thing some newspapers are good for!

So it in the 1970s ...when the media floated a potential sugar shortage due to failed crops in the West Indies. Those with warehouses full of sugar made a quick buck. Sensible marketing ploy 'possible shortages' ...if you want to 'clear the shelves'. ....The sheep won't need any encouragement to BUY , BUY , BUY!!! Astute move on the part of Tesco.

i dont understand this toilet roll thing ,when i was a kid money was always tight strips of newspaper was always a option as food came 1st.

[geckotheglorious] 23/12/2020 07:57

Imagine if there are food shortages....
What is the point of all that toilet paper????

No problem with stock all shelves are full at my local Tesco and they are matching Aldi and Lidl on vegetable prices..never enough tills open at Aldi and Lidl..only fools queue to spend money..

..
Tesco tells shoppers they can only make three purchases of eggs, rice, soap and toilet roll amid fears that food shortages will run until after Christmas

Tesco limits purchases of toilet roll, eggs, rice, soap and handwash

[bountyhunter] 21/12/2020 15:25

UK grocery chains could benefit if Lidl & Aldi supply chains are disproportionately affected by Covid & Brexit?

[bountyhunter] 21/12/2020 15:18

Didn't know that, learn something every day 🙂

Of course they did mess up in the US if I remember correctly, 'fresh and easy' wasn't it?

Just checked, yes memory ok ;-)



MRW also worth a look?

[wendsworth] 21/12/2020 15:12

bounthunter and CWA1 : I concur ...with all the comments! Could well prove to be the 2021 'recovery share'.

[bountyhunter] 21/12/2020 14:59

I'll ignore that lol ☺️
This is a buy and hold buffet style share in my view.
Diversity in high quality high yielding shares with a consistent growth and dividend track record to avoid the devaluation of cash is the way to go now imho. May need to hold a while through volatile markets but the yield should underpin.

[cwa1] 21/12/2020 14:59

Fools seldom differ though :-)

[bountyhunter] 21/12/2020 14:57

Great minds think alike! 😀

[wendsworth] 21/12/2020 14:57

bounthunter and CWA1 : Same here must be catching !

[cwa1] 21/12/2020 14:44

Strangely enough, so have I

[bountyhunter] 21/12/2020 14:38

I can't find a more defensive share out there given the current circumstances. Topped up.

[wendsworth] 21/12/2020 12:04

van and konrad : Sensible question and reasoned response. share price quite resilient despite today's general market falls. Points to fundamental value in the company ?
