Iceland to Marks & Spencers

[Chocolate]

Does anyone know why Iceland may be turning into Marks & Sparks on Lordship Lane?

[saleem]

Er, because M&S have made the landlord a better offer, perhaps? I'd be glad to see the back of Iceland. It's a blot an otherwise pleasant highstreet.

Well I think it will be a shame as you can get a lot of bargains in Iceland, why pay double for the same thing just because of the name of the shop.

[saleem]

You can get a lot of bargains on Rye Lane, too. And when you buy fresh ingredients you're encouragedto cook. Iceland sells predominantly poor quality food like microwave meals and oven chips. Their mince looks more like cattle pellets than beef.

yes they sell a lot of microwave meals but we have Co-operative up the road where you can buy more fresh produce but I was referring to toiletries, cereals, tinned food, etc, all these are sometimes more than double in other stores.

I disagree, we need more threads like this one, please
