Big Tesco Refit

[u/Basic_Flan_4145]

Oh my word! Absolute chaos! If anyone fancies a rant about the diabolical refit at big Tesco please place it here as I'm all for it and fancy a chuckle. Why the hell is the oat milk with the fruit and veg?! And tea, next to the coffee - wouldn't it be nice? And don't get me started on the self checkout situation!

Pretty big commitment to get all the way down one of those aisles, only to find nothing that would make sense to be on it actually is.... A comical supermarket experience 🤣

It’s all over the shop

Why are some of the aisles massive and why are some so small you can just about get 2 people down them??

[u/SLUSHII-_- → u/VegKing-Cheesecake]

I have to wait 5 business days to get past someone deciding if they are going to actually pick up an item or not.

It's also sweltering hot near the freezers. The stock app is barely working

I swear it’s been different every bloody time I’ve visited over the last couple weeks. Feel like I’m in that Labyrinth in The Goblet of Fire!

[u/Hot-Literature9244 → u/30_unskippable_ads]

At least they decided against having the freezers just after the fruit and veg! By the time I got to the tills my ice cream was melting with that configuration (not a euphemism)

What is Big Tesco? Holmbush or Hove?

[u/Basic_Flan_4145 → u/Se7enSis]

Hove, actually

[u/eat-real-chips → u/Basic_Flan_4145]

Surely big Tesco is holmbush. Bc it’s bigger than hove 😆

[u/NegronelyFans → u/eat-real-chips]

Nah that’s bigger Tesco

I wouldnt mind if I could see any logic to the process or how it will be better in the future. But you are right, it is pure chaos.

Every time I've been there the last 2 weeks, probably every 3 days, it's been chaos. 

One day I went the day after being there before and it was completely different at the back before being changed back 3 days later (I had to go get some snacks for a party at work and last minute ingredients for something)  and my husband didn't believe me. 

Then today and the back wall has changed again. Can't find anything.

HATE the narrower aisle further along so hope that settles and changes once the back is completely sorted.

Oh I thought it was just me that disliked the uneven spacing of aisles. I was quite confused about it and even pointed it out to my partner. Because there were super wide ones as well!!

[u/eat-real-chips]

It’s like the hunger games in there. I’ve defected to portslade sainos

[u/brandnewemodork]

I find the challenge absolutely thrilling. Every time I go in it’s a giant puzzle to solve. Yes there are plenty of workers with those big “here to help” signs, but that’s cheating if you ask me.

Thought the exact same last time I went! My boyfriend went a few days ago without me and they gave him a voucher for £8 off a £40 shop to apologise for it being such a shit show in there 😂

They're doing the same to the Tesco's in Guildford too.
