Hi,
I know I said I wouldn't write in a while.
But I'm a bit upset now.
I've just been to Tesco Liverpool One again.
And again, only Poppy bags and sandwich-bags.
I noticed other customers also being annoyed.
How can you have shop-managers like this?
If I'm allowed to say my honest opinion.
Regards,
Erik Ribsskog

I hope this will be better now then, and I'll just wait and look for a
while, and see if there's any improvement.
Thank you very much again for your reply!
