    she digged into him about 4 times about it.... i would have demanded the manager... because good god she was just mean.
    Just to point out, but we only have the word of this fellow who wrote the post. Frankly, based on the tone of the article and some of the turns of phrase he uses, I am not terribly inclined to believe him. In my own opinion, I think he's at the very least exaggerating the number of times he was upbraided by the cashier.

    I'm not saying it isn't possible, or that it hasn't happened before. I just think this person's version of events are suspect.

      *raises hand* I'm an ex-tesco employee.

      Tesco's "green" policy is bullc**p. They do use a *lot* of recycled and recyclable packaging these days, damaged food is sent to the staff canteen rather than thrown out and many stores are switching to boidegradable bags, but it's still c**p.

      However, that cashier should, to use an old WWII phrase be "cashiered" asap. that was completely uncalled for and *definitely* not tesco policy.

      That warrnats a complaint to the manager.

      (P.S. Other supermarkets such as ASDA, aka wal-mart and sainsburys have jumped on the same "Re-use your bags and get loyalty points and save the planet" bandwagon)

        Bastards!

        Bloody Tesco's. They're the UK equivalent of the US Walmart.
        well thats wrong for a "bloody" start, ASDA is the UK equivalent of Walmart

        ive only lived here for 20 odd days and even I know that!

        and personally ive found Tescos pretty darn good at the whole green thing, british produced food EVERYWHERE

          Okay. stepping up as a Tesco worker here.

          Yeah we're doing the whole bring in you're own bags deal, but so is every major supermarkets are too. And a few other stores so having a go at the store for that = suck.

          BUT, the major suck in that most definantly comes from the cashier, we're just meant to ask if they have any bags and if not had over some (boidegradable)store ones (though I'm pretty sure we're going to get rid of them soon). That's it. No eco rants on killing the planet. Nada.

          I know that the whole 'green bags save the enviroment' speel is a load of bull so I don't put too fine a point on it.

          So yeah, the customer was sucky but the chasier had it coming.
