TESCO!!!!

Westward Ho! Leahy's Tesco Heads To The U.S.

Go west young man. It's been a long time coming, but the chief executive of Britain's biggest supermarket has finally put rumors to rest that Tesco is heading, saddles blazing, into U.S. territory. CEO Terry Leahy announced that the new terrain would be filled with wealthy go-getters who thrive on convenience, a place where arch rival Wal-Mart Stores is said to be comparatively underrepresented. It is of course, the west coast. Leahy said that starting next year, Tesco would be opening a chain of convenience stores in the area, similar to its Express chain in the U.K.

It's an English thing, I guess.

It would be like having somebody celebrate a new Wal-Mart opening in their town... it's kind of ironic... err.... umm...

I thought I was "over the top" enough to sell it as a gag. Sorry. :o

Well they just couldn't let the 7-Eleven behemoth go unchecked I guess.

Tesco Express, always good in a country where nothing opens until 9 am. Concept might not work so well here.
