I was feeling all warm and fuzzy towards Tesco having received more than usual Clubcard vouchers...BGE tie up from elec and gas.
So off I happily tootle to Tesco last night.
My mood began to go downhill when the woman in front of me returning a trolley as I was picking one up...couldn't get her euro out...and asked me for mine and I could take her trolley. I pointed that solution would only leave me with her problem....couldn't get it through to her.
Did my shopping but very quickly as the piped music was dire. I can best describe it as a strangled cat and high pitched wails set to instrumental discordant screeches.
At the checkout I asked if this was standard. The cashier said it was and many customers have complained about it. He said he had to learn to tune it out. I asked what the point was and he said it was to encourage shorter browsing. But surely that means I spend less...
Any warm fuzzy feelings now gone..
