This "super" Tesco is one of the better ones-- it's massive, tidy and for the most part, very well stocked (aside from Sundays where everything is pretty much picked through and gone from the Saturday craziness. So if you are looking to do a full shop, forget it).
I'm still getting used to the grocery superstore milieu in the UK, but thus far I'm firmly in the Tesco camp. They have better deals, a better selection (well, the bigger ones like the Burnley location does anyway), and a healthy book aisle. Truly one stop shopping, Tesco is a discovery waiting to happen.
One criticism of this location in particular is that they keep moving things-- it may not seem like a huge deal, but when you're used to finding your, oh, minced turkey in one place and then all of the sudden it's not there anymore, it's a little off-putting. Also, they stop carrying things every so often. Not just run out of it-- just completely stop selling it, without warning or notification. Like Method hand soap and Tom's toothpaste.
Who's with me to join the campaign for consistent products at Tesco? (Or at least to get them to keep carrying the stuff they used to sell?).
In any case-- yay, Tesco! read more
