Ghostrider Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 ^ You taking the pee..... Well, at least you didn't say "wide range of easy to find quality stuff at great prices" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marooned in Maywick Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 Tesco, great when it's not busy, with a wide range of easy to find stuff at great prices with plenty of parking close by ...easy to find...? You been in lately? They've gone and shifted a whole bunch of stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hector's House Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 To be fair, that's the first move they've made since the extension was put up (afaik). When I lived south my local Sainsbury's used to move stuff seemingly on a monthly basis. Got to say the Tesco rearrangement doesn't seem very logical as they've had to split up some stuff that you'd expect to be in the same aisle. No doubt there's a method to their madness Oh yes, Christmas is a-comin' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marooned in Maywick Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 And to be doubly fair, I was just having a gentle nudge at the timing of Big Mouth's comment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malcolm Posted October 13, 2012 Report Share Posted October 13, 2012 Sadly the Co-Op lost my vote this week thanks to a ignorant member of staff. I said "Good afternoon" he grunted, I said "bit quiet in here today" his grunt was barely audible, I asked "Have you got any canvas bags" by this time I thought I had gone deaf (but I recognised his gorrilla like attempt at pointing me in the direction of said bags). As I was paying another customer came to the counter only to be rather rudely told "Closed". Civility costs nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hector's House Posted October 13, 2012 Report Share Posted October 13, 2012 ^ Ignorant, or maybe shy & uncomfortable dealing with people? Bit of an odd reaction from you Malcolm, not giving the benefit of the doubt. Sure, maybe not the exchange you'd expect at the checkout, but I'm always happier with efficiency over false chumminess (ever been to an Asda?)

ariel Posted October 13, 2012 Report Share Posted October 13, 2012 I think you'll find this thread is called 'excellent service' - I'm sure you will find numerous other ones for moaning and slagging off staff. Customer service in the Co-op can be an adventure, but it's more fun than the ruthless efficiency of Tesco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fusion Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Bought a new TV from Geordie Robertsons yesterday, had it delivered and installed today, couldn't be happier with all aspects of the sale, delivery and set up! CHEERS Yes i've heard lots of good service from them - when your buying.Not so good if you have equipment that you didnt buy from them but as they are the dealer you ask for help. The old shetland service if you didnt buy it from us, then sausage aff! This is silly on their part as getting help from a shop is part of the whole 'service to the comunity you serve'. Do they or any shop think you will return to actualy buy anything new after that reception?Bit like shooting theirselves in the foot. sorry to go off topic a wee bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speccy Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 I sure hope GRs don't feel responsible for folk who didn't buy things from them, what is it with folk who expect something for nothing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
