Don’t believe the hype on Hgv wages, I’ve been driving for them for 10years and we are progressively being left behind and being offered continually less than inflation every year. Bosses here want to pay less and get more that’s why they want Europeans back cuz they’ll do it for less due to cost of living generally less for them so can send English capital abroad instead of keeping it within our uk economy!
I think Uncle dougass is referring to whats not in his trousers rather than missing product on the shelves.
What effect will shortages in supply and HGV driver wage increases have on the results? My view is, it's too early for the wage increase to take much effect but the shortages could do some damage although panic buying often means an increase in revenue and the slowest moving, even the specialist food items get sold. So revenue may improve?
Uncle Doug, why don’t you try going veggie for once, there are millions of starving people in the world without a Tesco at the bottom of their road who probably won’t get a meal today! By the sound of things you could probably do with missing a meal for once in your life!
Yes, 4th attempt at this 260 level since 2018 high at 267 will it crack it this time?
Uncle Doug….go veggie for a change and stop moaning, think of all the starving people in the world that don’t have a Tesco at the end of the road and won’t have a meal at all some days. You could probably do with missing a meal or two?
…nice to see you again.
All the majors have supply issues. TSCO have probably the best supply chain. The start of the pandemic was an example of well the company did in comparison to the others.
Empty shelves again this evening - no meat this time.
After the 15/19 consolidation you'd hope it would be at least 4.05p!
So last year it was 3.2p ( so maybe 3.7p this year )
Ex dividend was 15 October
Dividend payment was 27th November so if you go by them metrics and dates you will not be far off people
Interim results are out 6th October, they will announce in that the interim dividend which could well be 4p.Also when the shares will go ex dividend which will be around 25th October, payment is usually mid December
so is the next one in october?
A dividend that is paid quarterly or at half year in addition to the main dividend at the end of the financial year. It's usually, but not always, smaller than the main dividend paid after the company's financial year has ended.
im new to this what is an interim dividend
October not far away, interim dividend time! I’d be content with 4p per share - any views?
Going upmarket then Doug at Lidls lol. Says it all really
I’ll give it a go
Maybe try for crocodile soup and Labrador duck eggs.
My local store has totally run out of alligator soup and dodo eggs, it’s shocking!
I have had no problem in getting fruit and veg - in fact no problems at all with my orders.

Don’t worry about the fruit and veg, just eat chips, there’s plenty in the frozen section….:-)
Went to do a big shop yesterday but so many empty shelves in fruit and veg aisles. Ended up doing a small shop and got the rest at Lidl next door. I do think the clubcard prices is a very good scheme though.
Rick, in order to lessen the frustration and the plague god, forbid if you kept your receipts then the next time you visited the TESCO store and you brought them with your card maybe request a refund as a valid club cardmember and explained the circumstances. It's happened to me a few times in the past after purchasing fuel but they were more than happy to add the points back onto the card.
IMO DYOR GL
I think you already have the answer but just to confirm when William hill was subject to their takeover there were a couple of employees on the wmh board part way through their share save scheme and they were allowed to buy the shares at the agreed offer price for the value of the fu d’s they had so far saved.
From memory the explanation went along the lines of the shares are issued and earmarked to employee share save scheme at the start of the scheme even though they are not available to savers to purchase until the required 3 or 5 year saving period has been completed. So if the company is subject to a takeover during the scheme period the share save shares (issued and held by the company on behalf of employee savers) need to be purchased by the bidder alongside all the other shares. The company therefore allow savers to buy the proportion of shares they have saved for so far and the remainder are cancelled prior to the takeover.
