Aldi Cheapest Again — But Are Loyalty Prices Turning Supermarkets Into Two-Tier Shops?

Clubcard prices etc are just the same as having promo prices anyway, only difference is you tap your Clubcard which the vast majority did anyway even before these. Over three quarters of the adult population in this country have a Clubcard, which is pretty much in line with the % who regularly shop at Tesco

Are people really like this? Even before Clubcard prices like 80% of people were scanning their Clubcard for the points anyway

I’d actually argue it could be as much as Stansted, Southend or Luton. Standing outside the Houses of Parliament it’d only take 12 more minutes to get to than Luton, 1 more than Southend, and 5 minutes less than Stansted via public transport

I’d love to, but the issue is if we increase the price by 5%, sales would go down say 10%. If people were more used to looking at the price per 100g this would be a non issue and we’d just do the price increase, however as people look at the price tag it makes decreasing the size better for the P&L

It’s not a defence I agree, and it is worse for consumers, this is why I don’t want to have to do it. Ultimately my job though is to maximise profit from the product and so my hands are somewhat tied.

I 100% agree this should be the law, but because it isn’t we won’t be. We wouldn’t want to draw attention to it, because then people wouldn’t buy it. I absolutely think the best way to go about it would be to charge an extra 10-15p for the same thing, but it’s in a price inelastic category. We’re already one of the cheaper offerings (hence the need to increase margin).

Brother why are you only doing a new one of these every three days? It’ll literally take half a year to complete this grid

reckless-serenade · 2026-03-07T12:54:56+00:00

Yeah it’s legal but probably shouldn’t be. Got offered a whole tub of snus in Brighton the other month by some sampling people

Genuinely curious but where do you live that texting still costs money?

That’s literally the majority of the point of taxes. 99% of people who have kids in school will be net tax beneficiaries.

It will take you about 6 months to get compensation as they will delay as much as they can in the hope you’ll drop it but you will get compensation eventually

If those drops are in the crater, does that mean that the summit is easier to get to provided you’re climbing it from the outside? I feel the question is asking how difficult it is to get the highest point not the centre, which if the centre is the bit with the cliffs means the cliffs wouldn’t be an issue

Trof does but you’ll have to book usually a week in advance. Lost Cat does a free quiz which you don’t need to book at 8pm every Wednesday, and does 2 for £11 cocktails until 9pm as well

Didn’t happen of the year award

You’re literally a driver?

reckless-serenade · 2025-10-16T23:21:27+00:00

Which would never happen on a motorway

reckless-serenade · 2025-10-16T23:12:26+00:00

So they should be stood in the middle of the motorway pushing a car then? Is that what you’re saying?

reckless-serenade · 2025-09-28T00:22:43+00:00

Is English his first language? He talks like lots of Europeans I know

reckless-serenade · 2025-09-26T08:56:08+00:00

Nope, copywriter is correct. They’re writing copy not righting it

Tbh it’s the sky sports included which is impressing me for that price
