May Contain Nuts Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Kinell no waitrose didn't realise, thought they were everywhere Every time a shop closes at Kingsway I'm hoping that a Waitrose will pop up. Every time I'm let down. B&Q went. Massive, great opportunity. They turn it into an Argos and TK Maxx Comet went. Big shop, great opportunity. They split it in 2 and use one half of it as a bloomin' hobbycraft store, the other half's still empty. They build a new unit nearer the roundabout, big enough I'd guess for a small Waitrose... they put yet another flippin' Greggs there and a Costa Coffee, because there aren't enough of them already. froggg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May Contain Nuts Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 It was sort of on the agenda a few years ago by the looks of a Derby Telegraph article, but nothing has come of it http://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/Waitrose-targets-city-new-job-boosting-store/story-12738342-detail/story.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddie Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 A staple for any beer head... Yeah, Tescos had an offer on of the 75cl bottles of Leffe at £2 each at Christmas so I picked a dozen up - you know, just for a rainy day. I am soooooo looking forward to the other stuff though. It's expensive compared to what I'd pay in Belgium, of course, but cheaper than going over to Leicester to pick up a couple of bottles of this and a couple of bottles of that at a fiver apiece. It worked out at just over £120 for the two cases, so around £2-60p a bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May Contain Nuts Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Co-op stores have a lot of local (ish) beers (as you might imagine) that I've been getting through a bit this last week, though I've not really found much that's been particularly great tbh, the Hobsons ones (shropshire) are nice enough. The lack of information on some bottles is shocking, I'd rather have some information about the actual beer than a story about the brewery printed on every bottle.
