A right mix of housing within walking distance. There is an incredible mixture of housing within walking distance of Waitrose. Thats definitely reflected in the people who shop there. I guess it is cheaper to suck up Waitrose’s prices than it is to drive/bus to Tesco. I like Waitrose stuff, but I don’t shop there often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in the understanding of the conspiracy theorists, Nowt to stop people going in or out of the area seeing it's on the inner ring road and between two main roads coming into the city.

"Shoppers revolt" my arse. What they mean to say is one grumbling pensioner goes crying about it to The Times and a handful of the Twitterati make some comments about it on the internet. To top it off, the Daily Fail then creates a completely separate story reporting about the story from some bloke commenting to The Times. Part of me really would love to sit one of their editorial meetings just to see how they possibly manage to create so much excrement to fill their websites and print 'news'papers everyday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECCOnoob Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 (edited) Oh and just to top it off, the impact of those scathing reviews on the Waitrose website can't have been that severe because the product in question is still scoring an average of 3 and 1/2 stars Edited August 26 by ECCOnoob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we lived in Sheffield (Crookesmoor / Commonside) we tended to use it one week out of 4 and mainly used Morrisons, Hillsborough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's no excuse I've only been in the one on Kensington High Street, not been in another except Wilmslow one (we are nearly all descended from peasants, what does it matter) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
