The thing that stands out is the reference to grams, ounces, pounds, kilos and litres - all mixed up in the same ad. Love it - what makes the UK different but as for Tesco, they were VERY low class in those days and not much has changed!
It's never mentioned how Tescos rebranded themselves dramatically at the end of the 70s/early 80s - up till then they were extremely downmarket - like Lidl or Aldi but even more basic - the places used to smell too and any posh people wouldn't be seen dead anywhere near one.
A classic advert from the 1970s when Tesco used to pile em high and sell em cheap under the management of the founder Jack Cohen.These days Tesco has lost its way, Ironically Tesco has now turned into another Sainsburys whom they unsurped to become the No1 supermarket in the UK. They have become lazy, poor quality and the fresh fruit/veg produce are total pants. what goes up, can come down..as Tesco's found out this christmas with poor sales compared to other supermarkets of a similar stature!
@lndac02 People are beginning to realize that they are a big con and turning away in droves. They put up prices abd then have a big 'Slam Down' leaving the prices still higher than they used to be! Lost 15% of their share value recently I believe.
These were the days. Bring back the gold standard and then prices would start falling dramatically until the Bank buys thousands of imperial pounds (eh-hem 480's of kilograms) of gold.
I love shopping at Tesco! And I really love reading the miserable buggers who hate the company with a passion: dont like'em, dont shop theren but remember millions of us CHOOSE to shop with them or Asda or Sainsbury's this isnt East Germany with the state-run stores! :D
Do not be fooled by stores like Tesco or Asda saying they have fantastic price reductions...yes they will reduce certain items, but they stick it onto other items and hope you won't notice.
What does tesco stand for;No money left in circulation in my city all money taken out. Staff working for food reward.Tescos now plan to take on local tradesmens work, Boilers, Windows, Roofing. Your all idiots shopping with this money taking machine. No money left in local circulation in any area of the UK. You've all dug yourselves in to a local recession. By not trading locally. There building another money drain in my city. Wise up you stupid pricks.Look at whos taking all the money from u

@WaterMachine1 just a laugh but i remember last year in the recession...a cucumber @ tesco went from 79p to £1.29. how dya work that one out? lol. but true and i switched to asda's till tesco's prices dropped again.
Tesco may be one of the biggest supermarkets, but if you're launching a campaign against them, surely it's only logical to campaign against the rest as well, who are also moving to bring as many "High Street" goods and services into their stores as possible.
But bear in mind that supermarkets offer everything under one roof, on a single level, with free parking immediately adjacent, so appeal particularly to the less mobile, who don't have to pay to park then walk 10 minutes to reach the shops.
Tesco have never been merely about making profit'. If that were the case there would only be a few of them per town, not 30, since they're profit revenues are exceeding £60b.
They already have adverts ready for the RFID microchip implants in supermarkets - do a search for the IBM clip.
It's just a matter of time, the tesco "club card" was the first step (these things are always done gradually)
@missjacko1 up until the early 1980s there was a half pence coin in circulation. It was removed from circulation as it was seen as valueless and it cost far more to mint the coin than it's face value (the same reason as to why the 1p and 2p coins are no longer solid copper). After it's removal some shops simply rounded the prices up to the nearest 1p.
@madabbafan Ahh thank you, is a very strange part of the currancy and it does seem logical to round it off to the nearest penny. Took me ages to learn the UK currancy when I visit, seeing this half pence would have baffled me completely.
@missjacko1 think yourself lucky, up until the early 70s our curency was even worse as it wasn't decimal. Then there were 20 shillings to the pound, 12 pence to the shilling, two ha'pennies to the penny and (until 1960) two farthings to the ha'penny. Not to mention the crown (five shillings), half crown etc.
@madabbafan Good lord Im glad its not like that any more I dont do numbers and those sound difficult, my blonde brain couldent cope. Thanks for the additional info.
fucking hell. if the prices was really that low today, i'd always shop at tesco for my daily penguin snacks ;) 19 and a half pence :P that's fucking good ;)
"From this to, 'unexpected item in the bagging area'."
hehe, yep... let's fast forward another 5 to 10 years when they completely crash the £ to replace with global RFID microchip implants which will contain every detail of your life.
*PLEASE swipe your right hand over the barcode reader to pay for your groceries!* "...sorry, our database shows you did not work enough over-time this week to pay for your items."
Notice the bottle of "Quosh" - LMAO, I'd forgotten all about that. Nowadays, it's gotta be at least "not from concentrate" if not "freshly squeezed". What did we used to let enter our digestive system.........
Nobody seen it coming until it was too late, they have practically taken over the country, causing millions of businesses to close over the years, now they put smaller shops into the high streets to squeeze the last drop of remaining little shops to close, once this is done, they will charge more and more, all supermarkets have the same idea in mind though, not just tesco, try to support smaller shops, it is important as these giants are sucking the life from towns and your childrens future!
I think you'll find we still (just about!) have free-speech :)
So i'll continue to spread the TRUTH as much as I like.
It IS interesting how hostile you are towards my comment though -maybe you are a shelf staker at tesco(?) and it's hurt your ego to hear someone say something negative about this fundamentally evil company.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@SteveFusionX TRUTH?! You're a conspiracy theorist. There is no truth nor cold hard evidence that backs up any of the drivel you're spurting out of your paranoid mouth. As for the mini-village, who cares?! Good luck to them. Business is business, it's ruthless and once you have a solid base built up like Tesco does, nothing can stop them. Live with it. Why are you not moaning about the monopoly of the oil industry, or ASDA/Wal-Mart?! Sainsbury's are doing well for themselves too nowadays...
Calm down, little-fella! (very interesting how violently you continue to defend this company!!)
Nothing i've said has anything to do with conspiracy theories. It's all factual.
Tesco have created more power and money for themselves than government (which SHOULD be concerning to anyone even half-awake!) and they ARE planning to create "tesco towns".
This is not something I have dreamed up - the sources are easily verifiable.
What I have a problem with is a company buying out ALL competition - so that the consumer is left with no choices and increasing prices.
In a worst case scenario everything WILL be owned by Tesco - at this stage they would become a dictator.
Already in the past 10 years we've had less and less consumer choices - independant record shops gone, opticians closing (Due to tesco "free eyetests") these are just a few examples.
@SteveFusionX It's scary stuff what they are doing, they look for every loophole too to evade taxes and choke suppliers on prices, eventually once they have sucked the life out of the economy, who is going to buy their products? maybe their workers will, please don't get me started, hope you had a great new year.
@SteveFusionX I can well believe it. Tescos in Hastings has just opened a superstore and are going to ship in workers from europe and provide them with housing etc. While locals that work there are being given less and less hours. Someone told me they only recognise one bank holiday at christmas and you don`t get paid any extra to work over bank holidays.
@SteveFusionX I think that you will find people on a low income such as the working class family actually appreciate the Low prices offered by Tesco, people have to eat and if you can get low prices in places like Tesco then thats one less financial stress!
However If your a middle class "Guardian" reading intellectual then chances are you can afford to shop in the more expensive 'politically correct' supermarkets!
Im on a low income and NO I will NOT boycott Tescos!
@SteveFusionX - Does that mean Tesco intend to employ the working population so they can pay the bills and do the shopping or will Tesco be catering the everyone's needs for free. Anyway this can only happen if the general public allow it, they don't have to go to Tesco for anything but groceries.
@SteveFusionX - You highlight some good points. One cannot help but feel there is a Government sponsored (but unwritten) agenda going on here. In the near future G.P. surgeries will be opening in supermarkets. I am in favour of anything that makes it easier to get an appointment with a G.P. (nigh on impossible with my chap). However it will make it easier for those who seek to control us and / or the supermarkets to facilitate the R.F.I.D implants for the masses.
this was before tesco became an evil, New World Order corporation.
Be careful of this company people, they are creating a slave population... heard of "UFID" chips?? If you havent, you need to do some research. Tesco have been putting them in the products you buy.
@SteveFusionX Actually Mr No Hoper I work with in a store and i think you look for the word replenishment team are what remerchandise the fixtures. so stop being a small minded twat all your life.
Bearing in mind the value of money back then, some of those prices actually seem astronomical to me! That bottle of pop 14.5p! That's about how much a value bottle costs today.
A hard week grafting down t'pit just for a litre of orangeade!
what happened if you brought something for 12 and half pence and you gave them 13 pence in penny's cause thatss all you had on you, and they didnt have any half pences in the till to give you your half pence change?
Ah, the good old half penny! I'm 41, so I remember them well! Happy days - you could buy loads of 1/2p sweets; Blackjacks, Fruit Salads etc. Not to mention Bazooka bubblegum, Space Dust and the like. *eyes must over*. No wonder us English have crap teeth after chomping all those 1/2p sweets as kids!
@K9MARK1 There was a minimum wage - but it wasn't called that. Retail workers had their wages set by "The Wages Council" which was established in 1909 - and abolished in 1986. The mimimum wage was re-established in 1999

However If your a middle class "Guardian" reading intellectual then chances are you can afford to shop in the more expensive 'politically correct' supermarkets!
Im on a low income and NO I will NOT boycott Tescos!

You've completely missed the point and fallen straight into their hands.
This has been in plan for a long time.
You are only thinking short-term, YES people need to eat and any price reduction seems like your beloved tesco really cares about you, right?
Tell me what happens when they have bought out every other retailer and they have the entire monopoly?
You think their prices will always be low??
Research globalism/NWO.

also.. you may think I was joking about the RFID chips (I made a spelling mistake before re that!)
But you can search and find official adverts they've already got ready for when it happens.
The club-cards will be replaced with human implants. And people will BEG to have them done (because it will mean 50% off groceries!!)
This so-called "recession" is all by design.
If people keep buying at pro-NWO companies like tesco they will only have themselves to blame.

@SteveFusionX - Does that mean Tesco intend to employ the working population so they can pay the bills and do the shopping or will Tesco be catering the everyone's needs for free. Anyway this can only happen if the general public allow it, they don't have to go to Tesco for anything but groceries.

@Steve10578
absolutely.
Tesco are not just a groceries anymore. They are destroying opticians, taking over banks and have planning permission to build in every town now.
People love tesco because it's cheap. They don't see the danger of ONE company controlling the monopoly.

@SteveFusionX - You highlight some good points. One cannot help but feel there is a Government sponsored (but unwritten) agenda going on here. In the near future G.P. surgeries will be opening in supermarkets. I am in favour of anything that makes it easier to get an appointment with a G.P. (nigh on impossible with my chap). However it will make it easier for those who seek to control us and / or the supermarkets to facilitate the R.F.I.D implants for the masses.

The prices in this advert seem cheap today but this was 1977!
And workers weren't paid the wages they are now!
There was no minimum wage for example.
I was watching a programme from the 70's and it said a night watchman
earned about £30 a week! I was born in the 70's and i can remember a lot
of sweets were bigger than they are now-as MICKTHEMERC mentions.
K9MARK1 1 year ago 2
@K9MARK1 There was a minimum wage - but it wasn't called that. Retail workers had their wages set by "The Wages Council" which was established in 1909 - and abolished in 1986. The mimimum wage was re-established in 1999
