Maybe a lot of people can only afford cheap. Not everybody can afford to shop at Harrod's

When you say "Cheap" how do you mean ? do you mean, yes they're cheap & good value for money ? or do you mean, cheap as in cheap & nasty ?

just curious as to your perspective is all, wouldn't want to be getting off on the wrong foot now would we ! (whether that foot is wearing Jimmy Choo's or Timpson, we can talk about that later

)

i honestly hope they build the biggest and best tesco they have built for years, accrington really needs a boost be it a second rate supermarket, look at the arndale,
accringtons nuts have really been squeezed by the recession people have not got the money now to be picky

Few photos from today, sun was in the way, so bit light, sorry.

Now confirmed that Tesco will continue to build the new site so you can keep taking photos

I was being told yesterday that this isn't going to be a Tesco but a new Train Station, it also appears that there are no Tesco signs outside this site, I got this from a friend who stopped to have a look yesterday

The Tesco site is on the old college and council buildings site. The new train station is being built on the train stations former car park.

Tell your friend to look at the HI-Viz jackets of some of the workmen, they will find the word Tesco on them
