Tesco

[Bjornebye]

Fucking repulsive shop.

[stringvest]

it's not a pleasant place to shop, in any sense really. 

[VladimirIlyich]

Scarily like the Thatcher 'Pension Scheme' scandals all over again.

Where do you shop, Stringy?

[Bjornebye]

I shop at Waitrose and Lidl. For the big shops like anyway. I generally get my meat from one of 2 butchers in Southsea. Buckwells or Bransbury Road. I get my hair cut at the Green Mango and I buy johnnies from the bogs in Drift bar. If it's a snack i'm after i'll make a quick one out of whatever the bitch has bought and left in the fridge. I fuck cats. Fuck you.

Shop? Tccchhhh.

Only time I ever used tesco was when I used to, ahem "borrow" bacon and sausages from them when I was in college and forgetting to return them. Never used them since and I hope they fold quicker than a fat bloke getting a kick in the nads. Fucking the staff over, typical of all big corporations. Fuck them.

Morrison's is where it's at. The most pleasant to walk around of the big stores and an exceptional hot meat counter, exceptional.

 

Tesco does some excellent world beers though it has to be said.

Is that the Morrisons where George Osbourne gave a speech to staff at the distribution centre at the last election and got a round of applause off the cunts.

I remember when I visited my cousin in Scotland. He did he shopping for his African Take Away shop from local farmers and producers. However for his home he did all his shopping to Lidl. What a fantastic shop, good prices, great selection and delicious biscuits.

 

He said they wouldn't let us inside Waitrose or Morrison's, those shops he said are for rich, white, males, only. So I don't know how those shops look like inside. Are they nice, like M&S?

[Dr Nowt]

Has your cousin suffered a serious head trauma?

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Morrisons is good. What's Aldi like? I hear nothing but good things.

[Bjornebye]

Nighcat just turn it in.

[Dr Nowt]

I need to start having a proper look round Aldi and LIDL.  Can't justify doing much shopping in M&S or Waitrose, much as I love their food.

 

I'm fortunate to live at the quiet end of an extremely cosmopolitan high street, as tosserish as I know that sounds but it genuinely is, so we get to try lots of little Turkish bakeries, Asian supermarkets and Arabic convenience stores for fresh fruit, veg and sundry other supplies, and a few months ago made the conscious decision to try and fuck the big supermarkets off entirely.

 

Ease, familiarity and sometimes just access to a particular thing you like or need you can't locate quickly elsewhere does mean it's not yet a total ban, but it's been a major reduction.

Why are you saying that? He is a nice guy. If you ever find yourself in Edinburgh go (with an armour) to Leith, he is in Great Junction Street. He's got good chicken dishes and African bread. 

 

Oh, I think my cousin collected vouchers from Tesco. I can't remember what it was for, some cutlery or luggage. I think he liked Tesco, but found them a bit expensive for his budget. So he was doing almost all his shopping at Lidl.

 

The story about Waitrose/Morrison's is true. He is said they are all white there, mostly Torries. They wouldn't let him in, unless he was escorted during his shopping.  

[ZonkoVille77]

Nightcat is Fucking ace.

As long as these fake yesmen capitalists get fucked big time it's all good. I hope that they've shat their pants already, along with their potato head owner.

 

And Waitrose is more co-op than most others as far as I know, so maybe the best of the lot. At least employees get a share of the profits.

African Flavour Lounge?

Same happened to me. Although I was drunk and naked from the waist down.

Purely in response to "He said they wouldn't let us inside Waitrose or Morrison's, those shops he said are for rich, white, males, only".

 

There's certainly a growing tendency towards store security following you around and very obviously letting you know they're watching in all the supermarkets, but I get that just because I look like a tramp and my skin is more grey than white.

 

I'll look him up next time I'm in Edinburgh and get some photos of us pissing on a picture of David Cameron together for you, if you like.

Aldi is shite, just the latest in a long list of stuff to become tredndy because everyone else says they does it, the 50 shades of gray of retail made mainstream by the middle class chattering housewife brigade.

 

It's only good for suasage products because the Germans have strict laws on how much meat is in it, that's it unless you drink Scotch called Glen Arse.

 

People used to get stabbed in my day if their parents shopped at Aldi, and rightly so.

[Hooch]

Was just thinking about Netto before - As a kid if you shopped there the abuse received could be brutal.

 

My Nan and Grandad shopped there. They were oblivious to the bad name it got but also exempt cos' they were old.

One day around 1995 after a shopping trip, I was there with my cousins, they dared me for a joke to cut the top out of a netto bag and wear it. We sellotaped "Fowler 9" on to the back. This was a play on the famous "Netto kit" at the time.

 

So I did and wore it out in the street, all day. Even played footy in it in front of the other kids.

Good times (soz' for the f**tball reference).

Ian Ayre shops in Waitrose for food, and Kwik Save for players.

African Flavour Lounge?

You googled it too?
