My point exactly, multi billion company should, IMO, speculate to accumulate. Dropping prices to a reasonable level would mean they are going to be cheaper than most, thus increasing their customer base. Or am I missing something obvious here?

Don’t get me wrong here, I understand that things are getting more expensive, but this lot have to be extracting urine. They hike up prices by about 20-25% at a time. But what really rips ma knitting is this Clubcard thing. I’m not believing for one minute that they are taking a loss on the Clubcard prices, then they give you points which is paramount to free cash to use in their shops. Why not just lower the prices for everything and everyone can save a few quid, instead of this nonsense? If they lowered their prices, they’d surely get more customers which = more £’s for them? Not just Tesco, it's all of the big supermarkets. Yes there is cost of living / inflation issue, but it's a very competitive battle for market share and profits, essentially prices rising to ensure profits continue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is actually pretty straightforward when you realise the solution but it's designed to throw you off.

I went to Greggs last week, and Scott had asked for a sausage roll. They didn't have any fresh in the display so I bought one of their 4-packs. Came home, opened the pack and said to Scott that he could take one from here. he took the 4-pack and scoffed them all in less than 10 minutes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, it was like watching a snake dislocate its jaw and eat a mouse. Never seen anything like it. And he's so skinny, too.
