Paul H Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 A LOT of people I am talking to (people who are generaly 'in the know') are convinced that there are some dealings going on between the Steam Packet and Tescos with a view to the supermarket giants buying the shipping company. Information anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Information anyone? Apparently its a cheaper option than trying to buy out Island Taxis. The last time my wife used my cash card to go shopping I thought WE were trying to buy out TESCO'S! And for the record, Island Taxis is NOT for sale. Sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although an excellent concept, I'm sure the company would argue that The demographics of the island don't justify such an option... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cret Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 I dread to think what analogy could be drawn to how they barely have common stuff on the shelves half the time, especially the 'special offers' in the beer section which seem to be special by way of being invisible.
