Tesco Value Shaving Foam 26p & Tesco Value Mouth Wash 40p
Both items were very good value for money
Tesco has announce after 20 years it is to bin its value brand. I have often found some of this range very good. like the two above.
I can't say I will be sorry to see some of the food range go. I once tried a pack of the most disgust mini cake rolls. I think they contained a substance called jam the sponge looked uncooked and tasted of nothing.
As for meals I did try a few and often feared what I was consuming particularly after the recall of one the range for the sauce scare.
I cant fault the tinned Rice Pudding at 13p a can I must stock up before it goes.
I never tried the Curry Sauce at 3p a can!
The baked beans were fine if you drained of some of the water before cooking.
When the shower gel first became available at the Oakham store is cost 10p
then rose to 20p and most annoyingly it recently went up to 30p
There were value ranges in some supermarkets long before Tesco
Fine Fare traded until 1986
I can also remember as a child my mother buying a
value range from Kwik Save, White Boxes one product
I remember was the frozen beef burger well it said beff on the box
we used to save the gallons of fat that drained off to make fat balls
for the birds!
Tesco PLC News Release
Tesco launches ‘Everyday Value’ brand to replace Value
Tesco is launching a new range of brightly-packaged
and brilliantly-priced food under a new brand: ‘Everyday Value’. The
range will replace Tesco Value and follows extensive research with
customers to understand what they want to see from a value brand today.
David Wood, Tesco UK Marketing Director said; “Tesco was the first
supermarket to launch a Value range back in 1993, the blue-and-white
striped brand giving customers a down-to-earth option. Almost 20 years
on and an affordable quality range is more relevant than ever, but
customer needs have changed.
“We have listened closely to what our customers want and Everyday
Value will provide products that taste better, look better and are
healthier – still at the same great price.”
Tesco is focusing on three areas with the launch of Everyday Value:
Quality - improving the quality of its Everyday Value
products, at no extra cost for the customer. Tesco Everyday Value
products will contain no MSG, no hydrogenated fats, no artificial
flavours or colours, and no genetically modified ingredients. Other
quality improvements include 100 per cent fish fillet in Everyday Value
fish fingers, tea bags and instant coffee re-blended to improve the
flavour and orange and lemon squash with 10 per cent more fruit juice.
Healthier options: The new range caters for customers who want healthier options – and also supports British produce.
Everyday Value mince will have a lower fat content than the old Value
version, Everyday Value tinned fruit will come in fruit juice instead of
syrup as the new fruit harvest comes in from June, while tinned peas,
beetroot and carrots will be 100 per cent British. British flour will be
used to make bakery products such as pancakes, crumpets and scones.
Packaging improvements: To help customers spot the new range
on the shelves, Everyday Value packaging is more colourful and softer
than the blue-and-white of the old Value range. We have also
improved the way it functions, including biscuits in easy-open packets,
grated cheese in re-sealable bags and fruit juice in easy-pour cartons.
David Wood continues: “We apply the same standards to our Everyday
Value products as we do to all our Tesco food. Customer trials of the
Everyday Value range have been very positive. Customers tell us they
like the new name and the new packaging.”
