A comeback is one thing, but the Tesco takeover is overwhelming now
people are making jokes about tesco taking over the world
How did they suddenly get so big !! ?
In the mid-1960s Tesco started building supermarkets.
The one in Aigburth Road is still going strong.
All the out-of-date (and small) former Irwins were disposed of.
Admittedly, they have now have branched out into smaller "convenience" stores, and Tesco do seem to be everywhere.

The public seem to prefer Tesco.
Ironically, their original slogan of "Pile it High. Sell it Cheap" doesn't seem to apply these days.
