Sad to say I was a bit underwhelmed. I was looking forward to a transformed store in a similar way to what M&S did but it is pretty much as it was before in terms of layout. I expected them to sort out the slightly annoying pinchpoint where you queue for the tills and self-serve. They have boosted fresh produce a bit with a reduction in the ready meals that use to be on the left hand side (as you enter).
After I left it occurred to me that I hadn't confirmed if the meal deal section was still there - it didn't appear to be still in the aisle by the entrance although I walked by quickly. That accounted for about half my visits to the store so, if it is gone, that will be a real blow. |
