Tesco
Quote from: journeys
It is a business ripe for a corporate Raid by a sovereign wealth fund.
Yeah, but,...... I have to pay off my barclaycard, at the end of the month,.... so it`ll have to wait...
I hope they sell our local store (laughingly called a "superstore", it's an ex-co-op so it's tiny!!) to someone else, like Sainsburys, I miss shopping at Sainsburys, their donuts are nicer... 
That said I was reading the local free rag and their plans to build an obnoxious store over in Stanley (akin to the one in Gateshead apparently, went to that one in December and good god it's huge!!) have been shelved, Stanley's half dead as it is, with all the buildings being burnt down and shops being vandalised on a daily basis, bring in the giant business killer known as tesco and that's it, the whole area is killed...
It's about time tesco's reign was curbed, there's too many tesco stores as it is, from the little local things to the huge metropolis buildings, all pushing smaller shops out of business by massively undercutting prices, not to mention treating their suppliers like dirt, there's small countries out there who think tesco is a country and they want to go to war with them because of the way they're taking advantage of the people, it's not exactly a business model that comforts me...

For some people, cash is king, sell high, buy low, and never give a monkies about what it's doing to real people who are doing the hard wok that generates the cash...
