Over the Road Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Ventured out to Tesco in Central Retail Park, Falkirk tonight. We are completely out of food. I had to have at tin of leek and potato soup for breakfast. Anyway there was no bread, not a crumb. Tesco in Perth were apparently re-stocking some bread tonight with tomorrows stock as it was delivered early!! WTF is wrong with people?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny you should say that i had a panic buy of 48 cans of Carlsberg for £20 today,However on the downside i had a hospital appointment cancelled today which means i can't go back to work next week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd be just as well buying that than bread, maybe not the milk, but it won't keep long. If you were going buy some at least buy something that has some nutritional value. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got enough soup to last me a month! ....and have you noticed how all the staff congregate for a chat by the fire exit in the Tesco Extra section - lazy gits.

Michael W Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 I haven't managed out the house since Sunday, and I've pretty much no prospect of getting out tomorrow either, other than to nip down to the shop. It's depressing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were going buy some at least buy something that has some nutritional value. Cravendale milk in the cardboard cartons keeps for a week once opened, and before you open it the best before date is usually a fair bit away. I bought two cartons today and they best before date is the 21st of December. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right fair enough, but I'm talking about the regulation cartons, or bottles or whatever the fuck they're called. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cravendale is my wifes milk of choice for that very reason,We bought 2 x 4 litre cartons for £2 and gave 1 carton to the kids for their flat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ad Lib Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 If there's one thing I've learned from being a student, it's that bread can be frozen and can last as many days as tins of beans you have. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually buy the reduced bread for about 30p then freeze it, excellent value. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
