Tesco are opening a new budget range to compete with Lid and Aldi [in the UK]. They’re calling it Jack’s – not sure it’s the best name? Do you think they’ll bring it to Ireland?
Anyone?

cheap and cheerful like lidl, or cheap and nasty like tesco usually does?
Branding connected to Jack Monroe (A girl called Jack), or just coincidence?
Oh right! Maybe.
“Setting up Jack’s – said to be named after Jack Cohen, who founded a grocer in 1919 that later became Tesco… ”
From the link to the BBC news item provided. :rolleyes:
The thing is , Tesco in the UK is already one of the cheaper supermarkets , a British person shopping in Ireland would be forgiven for thinking Tesco is run by Marks & Spenser’s , its way more expensive here…
Going to the Jacks? I can see them rebranding.
Not sure why but I really hate Tesco. They always seem so depressing and negative.
Depressing, negative, badly-maintained and terrible value for money.
Tesco Express are probably the most miserable buildings you can set foot in in Ireland.
Everyone feels better after a visit to the Jacks in fairness, lets not be hasty, this could be a copywriter’s dream
So I could use the line “I got all this poo from the Jacks down the road”
Jack Sh**
Shop at Jack’s …for your down town brown !
I remember when that Clearwater was the old abandoned Janelle factory, you took your life in your hands taking the shortcut through there.
