Aldi and Lidl all the way now.

The BBC is the big one. Their coverage, like many oulets, is selective and the referendum coverage has highlighted how inconsistent/bias etc it is - the very things they pride themselves in NOT being.

Shopped in Aldi for the last 3-4 years apart from odd bits in morrisons....at least £25 a week cheaper which is nearly £1500 a year

after this last week i certainly winna be shopping in asda or tesco again regardless of price

I do most my shopping in the local Kebab shop and the Chinese and they tell me they're no bothered what way the vote goes as long as they get paid in some sort of currency whether it's £terling, €uro or ¥en 

I thought Tesco came out and said it won't affect their pricing. John Lewis/Waitrose and Asda came out against for sure. Not sure about Sainsbury's or Morrisons.

Tesco bank are they backed by RBS is it? Got to love these letters employees get, do feel sorry for them being put in that position. Basically telling them we will have to move in the event of a Yes vote, but not admitting that the whole operation doesn't need to move. Many won't see or understand the ins and outs.

Just as well we live in a democracy that does not survive on fear and intimidation...
 

I know somebody who works for Thomas Cook the travel agent. They issued staff with letters, instructing them to vote No.

As far as the BBC are concerned, and their TV licence, they can birl on it. Direct Debit dually cancelled this morning.

I am all for the boycott and making these companies pay financially.

My only concern would be what if it effects local jobs ?It would be the wee guy stacking shelfs at his local ASDA who needs his job the most who would be laid aff,NOT the fatcat bosses who are the real enemy.

I will be boycotting these companies but i am a bit conflicted in doing so as i hope i'm not complicit in making anyone lose their job.

While I agree helping out your local shops, in this current climate you need to shop for value IMHO. Eg:

At my local shop a 2ltr jug of milk Is £1.79. Three 3 litre jugs of milk at farmfoods Is £5.

My local shop £1.69 for a bottle of Pepsi max. £1 at farmfoods.

My local shop 80p for a mars bar. 3 for £1.

My local shop 1 pack of 6 bacon £2.29. Three 18 packs of bacon for £6 at farmfoods.

You get the jist. While I like my shopkeeper, I only buy papers In there (excluding the evening Tele).

Farmfoods aren't on the list Rodge.

BBC are top of my hitlist too.

The Scottish Press including papers like the Daily Record are also an utter disgrace,however,as they are owned by the English based 'Labour supporting' Mirror group,perhaps we shouldn't be surprised at all at their total bias.

ASDA throwing their tuppence worth in was to me quite unforgiveable too.They know that it's the poorest in Scottish society who shop with them and they supposedly pride themselves on being the cheapest with their slogan 'every little helps'.To prey on people's financial insecurities like that was fucking apalling.

I wouldnae turn doon a teacake or wafer if offered either.

Fucked if i'm ever buying yin again though.

Unionist cunts.
