28.3.11 Tesco

It's all very well being the biggest retailer in the country, but with that status comes a responsibility to service customers' needs, customers who have been encouraged to rely on Tesco.  So, when a massive Tesco store on a Saturday has a sign that says "Natural Set Yoghurt - 49p" alongside which is a comparison price, "Aldi 49p", it's rather disappointing to find the shelf fucking empty.  Trying to get across a message that basically says "Aldi (the cheap shop) is selling this for 49p, and look at us - we are selling at the same low price, so stick with us, don't bother shopping at Aldi" rather backfires when there's fuck all available.  I wished I had gone to Aldi because they probably had more than an empty promise on offer.

Stoneground Organic Brown Bread - nothing on the shelf.

I wanted some Pomegranate Juice; not much to ask, really.  However, much too much to ask of Tesco.  Every fucking juice available except pomegranate! 

"Every Little Helps" should be replaced with:

"Very Little Helps"
