Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
The success of a small Tesco shop in Haringey.
When Tesco applied to take over an old stale shop in a local parade of shops, lots of local Lefties, Liberals and Greens opposed their arrival into the community. They complained Tesco was too capitalist and too close to the Conservative Party.
Years later, my two photos show how successful this small store is thanks to demand from happy customers and the installation of a cash point.
Two large trucks arrive each day. This busy branch of Tesco has created lots of jobs with ethnic minorities winning most of the posts.
Though I don't like the slogan on their truck "Getting pickles to Cheddar".
It's too cheesy for me.

Actually whilst we are promoting grocery shops. I would really like to plug LIDL finsbury park. My all time favourite shop. Excellent prices, quick efficient queuing. Social distancing made easy, NHS get let in. In and out 10-15mins max
I would have liked to post a picture of it as well, but unfortunately I didnt think to stop to take one when I was last there. In too much of a rush, to get home and eat my yummy food
Lol

Personally, I like how I can collect my sustainable fish from Soleshare at Harringay Local Store. And possibly pop some beer in my shopping basket as well, and some of that elusive bread flour that has been so hard to get hold of during lockdown.
