Corona Virus Treatment

It is, but we will make the best of it - nothing else for it.

Stay safe @Freddy

 

I haven't shopped with Tesco for decades after finding out that I could buy the same items much cheaper elsewhere. A friend of mine used to buy from Tesco's until seeing a "special" buy of a 6 pack of tins of Beans touted at a special price. When he compared the price of separately sold same brand cans of beans he found it was cheaper to buy the individual cans!! When he contacted the Manager the guy admitted the special buy was more expensive but said it was not his fault but the marketing. It made me chuckle to see that Tesco have been proudly saying that they've brought some of their items prices down to being comparable to Aldi's........which was, to me, shooting themselves in the foot by admitting they were selling items at higher prices....but great advertising for Aldi's.

 

Well, it doesn't take long for negative supposition, speculation, and rumour spreading does it??

 

Well, they unfortunately come under the "non essential" title, pete, but I strongly disagree with that. I don't know if some of the local Plant Nurseries will reopen after another month of lockdown as it could finish them off.

Did you buy a Christmas Tree???

 

£300 for a Tree, pete, that will probably be chopped up and binned after Christmas???? There are times when prices, and people, are just insane. We always had a giant Artificial Tree which look realistic and we used time and again with all the things you hang on them to remind you of previous Christmases.
