I have an issue with these b*st*rds. a serious issue. an issue that drives me to the edge of despair. My issue is onions.
A year ago, at my local Tesco 'convenience' store, i used to be able to buy single onions at a cost of about 15 or 20 pence. Then suddenly, without warning, they decided that they wasn't selling single onions anymore, they're selling them in packs of 3 at a cost of ?1.04p - 50 pence worth of onions at more than twice their value.
After my initial anger, i had learned to live with it with the exception of minor rants about it every now and again whether my audience wanted to hear it or not.
However, just the other day, after my weekly shop as Asda, it dawned on me that i had forgotten to buy my much needed onions and so i had little choice but to go to Tesco and pay their disgusting rapist price.
Imagine my horror when I arrived to discover the price was now ?1.14!!!
The evil, robbing b*st*rds!!!
To cap it all off, on this day I also wanted to buy some tomato puree - a simple and, i would imagine, a fairly popular food item, used by just about everybody. Tesco charge a little more than Asda or Morrisons might but the price is acceptable and in no way makes me angry. However, there was no tomato puree shelved. Upon asking a Tesco goon, i was told that they are no longer stocking it. "I dunno" was the reply to my flabberghasted "WHY?"
This all may seem very trivial to some or all of you but it makes me angry and, were it not for the law, i would have taken my retribution by now rather than stewing in my fury and disgust at Tesco.
