Having been unemployed since January I really do take note of the prices. For me Tesco is my most local and as it's out of town compared to the asda and Aldi it is the one I use most. Plus, not wanting to start a race row here, but the Boston asda is, I would say, 70% foreigners. They shop like they drive, incredibly arrogantly and are quite happy to bump you out of the way.
But it's getting ridiculous how they are doubling their prices seemingly overnight.
How can they justify their cheapest squash is now 52p a small (double strength) bottle. This was 23p only a few months ago. Same goes for their cheap baby wipes, 26p jumped to 65p.
And that double strength squash thing is something that's wound me up. They are using less ingredients, less packaging, less transportation costs, less space needed on the shelves so more product able to be sold, plus I bet they sell more as most of us have spent years putting a given amount into a glass and it's not something you just change when your on auto pilot, but have they reduced their prices, have they balls! If anything they've gone up!!!!
But I like millions of others will just roll over and take it, and go deaf when the 6 o'clock news announces a quarterly profit increase into he billions!
