I'm not sure. I'm hope it'll be a good thing but I don't know why they have to have a whole new supermarket. Why not just run the Jacks products next to the standard Tesco ones?

Don't like the name or branding. Like most people, I just use the closest place to me. I'm not driving 5 miles to save 61p.

Because that will undermine the Tesco brand

Just means they now sell us even cheaper shit.

Makes you wonder why they don’t just drop their prices in their main stores and save the overheads.

P.s. we don’t shop at Tesco

I could understand that if they weren't planning on opening some stores next to existing Tesco stores.

I like Lidl and Aldi because the quality is actually good in most products. I especially love the cheeses and meats. If Jacks can provide a comparable quality and not the crap they push as their budget range then it may be a serious competitor.

Depends how much value to think your time is worth. I'm not fucking around worrying if I could buy some sausages 20p cheaper in Tesco. Frankly I'd pay not to go to a shop like Lidl and be around the walking dead.

If Jack's stock is good and most important the shops are small and close then I may use it, find working my way through the superstore tiresome.

I suspect that a lot of Tesco express stores will switch over to the new brand then it will be parted from Tesco and sold as an established nstional chain.

Tesco tried introducing a budget range within their stores and it didn't work.

Jacks will be a direct competitor for the likes of Aldi and Lidl.

They will use it in the same way as you would a "loss leader" then when the competition has been eradicated, close it and take the market share.

Because when you buy 20kg of steak and 20kg of chicken at a time, one does not do it at Waitrose.

"Frankly I'd pay not to go to a shop like Lidl and be around the walking dead. "

You've misunderstood the real appeal of Lidl, which isn't simply the low prices, it's the sense of chaos and wonder one feels as a customer. The ever-changing wtf items like arc welders next to golf umbrellas next to pistachio macaroons next to frikadellen and knock-off Peperami. That's before you even get to the exclusively forrin never seen that before stuff that if it didn't have a picture on the front you wouldn't know whether to peel it roast it or leave it in the toilet pan overnight

I went to one when I was about 13 and I just remember it because deathly quiet. For some strange reason there was a rumour that the checkout operators earned like £2 an hour more then other supermarkets because they had to memorize some shit and the highest paying graduate job on offer when I graduated was trainee regional manager, £40k a year + car in 2008. Weird place.

I went for a job in Aldi when it first started being a thing over here. Staff were expected to know the cost of all items and the tills didn't tell you how much change to give of the customer paid with cash. The interview consisted of a lot of metal arithmetic questions. Also stock taking was done by coining the layers and multiplying by the number of units on a layer plus any extra.

Think it's a bit different now but it's probably the hardest interview I've done in my lifetime lol

When I worked in shops in the school and college holidays no till told you how much change to give. I know they do now but it's really simple to give change accurately.

Knowing the price of every item in the shop must have been a nearly impossible task though.

When I did bar work in the seventies to pay for my vodka and cigarettes while at college we had to know the price of all the drinks and keep a running total in our head while serving the round. There wasn't the quantity of products that Aldi would have had though.

I do think the human mind's capacity is underestimated nowadays.

The new jacks store is situated in a building that was built by Tesco’s then moth balled due to costs etc.

They have let half the building to pound stretcher and opening jacks in the other half.

It’s situated within a 1 mile of a current Aldi that was a co-op.

Anyway. I will report back. I plan to pop in to have a nose in the next few days.

It’s going to be a big gamble for Tesco. They could loose a lot of Tesco customers who migrate to jacks creating less profit for Tesco as margins will be way lower. They have invested a lot into the jacks own label which basically is Tesco oen label rebranded. Whether the current Lidl , Aldi customers migrate is to be seen. The stores look good and the branding creates a sense of homeness but the people I feel sorry for are the small local convenience stores who will be hurt the most

"Guarantee it fails big time, why would you buy poor quality at Aldi prices."

I have no idea what the quality will be like, but I find a lot of Lidl quality to be very poor, things like so called free range eggs with fragile shells which is down to poor diet for the chickens, possibly because they are not free in a field, and duck breast that is 90% fat. Some products are good, but a lot are poor quality or not as cheap as the main stores.

As mentioned above cottage pie with 10% beef etc. Pizza with artificial cheese and other marketing tricks to sell inferior product in good packaging.

I am lucky enough not to care about cost, but do like time, so small supermarkets with limited choice suit me but the quality is dropping which doesn't.
