QUOTE (scott @ Jun 30 2009, 10:13 AM) Tesco need to take some responsibility here, i for one would be more than happy to use a £1 to secure a trolley. This would ensure that the customers would return them. Agreed. You don't get this problem at Sainsbury's.

QUOTE (scott @ Jun 30 2009, 10:13 AM) Is it just me or are tesco customers mostly idiots? Surely you know the answer to that question when you walk round the store. I avoid the place like the plague now because of the type of person it attracts.

How true this opinion is becoming. I was in there last evening and there were blokes in there walking around with no shirts on. The staff seemed to think it is Ok for some sweaty oaf to be wandering around offending the more respectful of us. I am seriously thinking of giving Tesco the breaze and shopping elswhere

This demonstrates that standards will drop to the lowest level unless checked. I think that people are becoming scared to confront these people because they know that they will get no support from others around them and the law won't punish them when (not if now) they get assaulted.

I shop at Tesco (amongst the others) and find it filled with chavs now. I go early mornings on a Saturday so i miss them. I will admit im an offender to one of your points! I leave my trolley on the walkway after unlaoding my shopping and putting my son in the car. TBH i cant be bothered to walk back to the trolley park car - so yes my little man is my prince and i am lazy Also I am helping other mothers who park up and dont have to carry there little one down to the trolley park. Its ready and waiting when they park up My advice is dont shop there, drive your car down to Sainsburys, or complain to Tesco.

I have complained countless times, they are not interested in 1 person complaining. once a certain subject hits a threshold of complaints, they start to take notice. Amie, i am dissapointed in you.... You are not helping other "mothers" (dads do the shopping too ;-) ) you are creating a pain in the preverbial!! take your trolley back to where you got it from!! And before you say "it was right in front of my car" it shouldn't have been there in the first place!!!!!!!

I know dads shop too, i see plenty of nice ones up there I know its wrong but i cant help it, after shopping i just want to get home and if im right at the end of the mother and baby its just too much of a long walk back!! Its only Tescos i do it at!

QUOTE (scott @ Jun 30 2009, 10:49 AM) Could you walk 1/4 mile with at least a weeks shopping with two under 2's? Well you could take the trolley home.
