but who says they'll keep the petrol station open - they might decide to shut it and have the petrol station at the tesco

I think the petrol sales are independent of Tescos at the Metro store that's why you dont collect clubcard points for buying fuel there

What we really need is a good book shop, a good computer shop and a good toy shop there is nothing like this in town
and there are plenty of closed shops in town that need filling before we have another supermarket

What we really need is any good shop!!!!we went to blackburn yesterday to the jewellers near the old cinema, Valhal, is got a massive sale on as its shutting down after 32 years due to the council not renewing the lease, a lot of the shops round there are shut and it looks terrible, all down to rent rises and non renewal of leases,so it looks like blackburn council are gonna ruin the town like hyndburn council have ruined accy.

Tesco Express will not close because of the petrol which is independent from the shop,Esso own the site and it will not be closing.
Besides the shop itself makes around 45-50000 pounds a week and employs around 25 people so it wouldnt make sense to close it.
It is a busy shop and the forecourt is always packed,me and my fiance know this because we have worked there ever since it opened and it has continued to grow steadily since.
And before people think no wonder we are all for the new tesco we are not looking for a transfer and are happy where we are!

We go to B/BURN Iceland. They have loads more stuff, better bargains and its a hell of a lot easier to park the car, than carry bags and bags up the arndale car park.

Tesco has a larger organic range so gets my order more often than not.

i find tesco quite expensive - although i must say some things do seem to be better quality ( or is it that they add more flavourings lol)
maybe its because i dont shop there often so i dont know what the bargains are
