Now if they only made 1% profit, that would mean that there turn-over would be £330 BILLION!

Which would mean that their turn-over was greater than the GDP of Sweden!

Which clearly it isn't!
Fair point

Good job you know how to use a calculator! Same with my butcher, no halal. Wouldn't use it if it did.

Why do you need to have groceries delivered? I understand if people are disabled using this service but why else?

I often go to Lidle and Aldi just to nosy in the baskets. I have zillions of things I don't need, I even have one completely unidentified object, but it's shiny chrome and looked interesting innit..

My local one also has a large semi empty car park. lil dog Muppet likes going there coz everyone pets him when they leave the shop.. He's a real poser innit.. lol..

I usually do my weekly shopping at Sainsbury's coz I have a friend who works there. And I am very cheap to feed coz I don't eat much anyway.

Reportedly not much good for serious welding but still great value. Especially if you wait until they are reduced. I watched a guy in the queue (in Aldi) buy one for £25. He said, 'I'm not sure what I want it for, but for this price I'll think of something.'
