Welke twee van de onderstaande vrouwen vinden supermarkten te machtig?
Schrijf twee nummers op.
They shouldn’t sell clothes | No fair deal | ||
“Supermarkets are
getting far too
greedy and taking
vital business
away from smaller
shops. I’d never
buy clothes from
them. I’ve heard
one chain is to
sell Levi’s at cutdown prices - which
isn’t fair on smaller jeans shops.” Alison Ferguson, 26, trainee accountant, Middlesbrough |
“There are so many big
stores opening
up round us and all the
things they offer make
it impossible for little
stores to stay in
business. I do use
supermarkets for their
convenience and late
opening hours, but it’s sad for small shops.” Liz Hughes, 41, teacher, Manchester | ||
Great service! | Supermarkets are much cheaper | ||
“Everybody
wants to buy
cheaper and
supermarkets
provide lots of
services under
the one roof.
I think the
enormous
hypermarkets
you see abroad are absolutely
wonderful… you can furnish your
house and buy all your food and
clothes in the same place.” Lotta Lykke, 22, au pair, East Finchley, London |
“Some food producers
charge ridiculous
prices, so if the
supermarkets can
make their own for
much less, why not?
A well-known brand
of, say, baked beans
can cost 34p, while
an in-store brand
can be as low as 9p.” Samantha Larkin, 26, conveyancing assistant, Croydon, Surrey |
