Just been for the weekly shop... Since when Did asda start selling switches/sockets and twin and earth??!

 

[steptoe]

yep, have saw it in their larger stores for a while now,

maybe if it does well they will start selling solder and gas fittings too! :|

Not at the one by us ....but give it time.

Boilers and consumer units next then as "every little helps"

 

[Evans Electric]

Followed by "Own Brand" consumer units .

Sometimes I think they should just butt out and give others a chance .

Tesco :-

All grocery

Meat

clothing

Hardware

electrical goods

Computers

Broadband

cars

Opticians

TV

Radio

Mobile phones

Petrol

But you gotta give some credit to the poor jewish immigrant who started with a fruit and veg cart in a market and when asked what the secret is said " Buy wholesale , sell retail , theres no secret"

I can't wait to see a Tesco Value consumer unit.

I wonder if you will get any club points for putting it right after the happy shopper installs it

 

[Sharpend]

Next you'll be able to notify through your clubcard, and for so many points you may get a free notification. Whatever next?

I think you'll find that ASDA is taking on the Walmart strategy, sell everything make each shop a one stop shop.

you do know you can get about 5x times the value if you cash them in for different things rather than simply tesco.

You might need that. How's the Landrover doing?

I've not used it much. Too busy flippin working, and when I'm not working, I'm sailing my boat.

But we are taking it to a local Classic car rally this weekend.

It still needs some fettling. Mainly the brakes are still not quite right. Working okay but the latest thing is I've found the master cylinder is leaking a bit.

And the project for when I get some time is to take the truck cab off and fit the full hard top that I've bought, but that needs painting first.

yeh i know that lol,

its just easier using them in tesco, as iv got neices and nephews all wanting things like moshi monsters, club penguin, lightening mcqueen and Rock Star Hight stuff its just as easy to get it all from tesco lol
