Probably a good thing that I waited until most of the renovation was completed as I was going to…read morerate this Tesco a lot lower. However, the renovation is great! It always seems really busy, even later at night so clearly the size and the renovation were much needed. This Tesco has a Giraffe attached to it as well as a cafe upstairs. So if it takes you all day to get through this massive store, you have some options for lunch/dinner. This really is a one-stop shop: kitchen supplies, office supplies, toys, clothes (upstairs), toiletries, and of course food. They have a lovely selection of bakery items, the new deli and meat counters look great. I also really like their foreign foods section. At a lot of stores you get a shelf or two with just a couple of items, but here you get large sections with a large selection of items. Of course the American section caught my (and Mr. Snarky's) eye and while some of the items I have never bought in the states and am a bit disappointed that that is what is being exported to other countries around the world, there are a number of items that I am excited about. In fact, I plan to make Mr. Snarky a Thanksgiving meal and there are a number of items in the section that will make that possible! There is just loads and loads of selection and chances are, if you cannot find it elsewhere, come here. I will say that it does sometimes get quite crowded with lots of customers plus the carts the staff use to stock shelves, making it a little more difficult to navigate the store. And check out is a bit chaotic, but if you have a Tesco Club Card, they do have a 'Scan As You Go' option so you don't have to wait in the queue. They also have a few cash machines and there is a petrol station as well. While I enjoy farmers markets, this Tesco does appeal to my American supermarket side!

Tesco have quite a few stores in Swindon, including smaller ones that only stock a limited range…read moreand one in the town centre. This one is however the biggest Tesco is Swindon. it stocks a large range of food and also a large range of clothes, including Florence and Fred. They also have a good selection of DVD's, games, electrical items such as cameras and TV's. There is an escalator to go up to the first floor, that you can even take your trolley on. I like Tesco because you can get clubcard points there, to use of days out vouchers. There is a big car park, with plenty of space and in the carpark are recycling facilites for bottles, cans etc.

Great to pop into on your way to somewhere else, or to grab a bottle of wine for a party. They have some really cheap wine that tastes okay, and some surprisingly better quality stuff. Probably not worth going to for a big shop, and the bigger stores do have some better deals, but it's in a useful location. I just hope it didn't take over some nice little independent corner shop or grocers.
