Fabulous Ideas For Tesco

Dear Mister Manager,

I am looking for employment. I am 28 years old and live nearby your big Tesco shop.

My name is Bradley Pearce and I have no job at the moment. I have not worked since I left school a few years ago.

Some people might be put off by this but you should think this is a plus point as I am still fresh and eager to learn!

I would be a great advantage to your shop, I have lots of ideas for you. I come into your shop every week with Mum and help her with the shopping. You might have noticed me, I always wear an orange anorak. Mum bought it for me years ago and I like to wear it whenever I go shopping. In fact, one day when I was in your shop someone mistook me for someone famous and asked me if I had any cheap flights. I think they must have thought I was a pilot or something.

My ideas are really simple and I can't think why no one has ever done them before.

I have counted that you have 13 aisles in your big shop. Why not have all foods in alphabetical order? Aisle one would be for any food that starts with A or B, aisle two would be foods that start with C and D. Simple isn't it.

So if someone wants to buy cornflakes for example they know straightaway that its going to be in aisle two, because cornflakes start with a C!

If someone wants Sugar then they know its in aisle ten, brilliant idea isn't it.

We could go one step further, each aisle could also be colour coded. So cornfalkes would be in the yellow section of aisle two.

Also I have an idea for the checkouts. I notice that the ladies and men on the tills get a bit humpy sometimes. I think they should all be in fancy dress that would really cheer them up. Then, people would queue up at the checkout that they like the most. My favourite would be spiderman, he's my hero. If there was a checkout where the lady or man was wearing a spiderman outfit, me and Mum would always go to them!

I read in a newspaper once that eating fresh fish is really good for you, but your Tesco shop only sells dead ones! So, how about this, all fish would be in giant tanks swimming around and if people want to buy them they have to catch their own. Everyone gets a fishing rod when they enter the shop. I'd really like this as I would do the fishing while Mum does the rest of the shopping.

Also you do a lot of "buy one get one free" things. Why not have "buy two get two free". Its crazy that no one has thought of this yet.

These are just a few ideas, I've got loads more.

If you want me to come into the shop and see you about all this that would be great. Me and Mum will be in on Friday about half past two. You'll spot me straightaway cos i'll have on my orange anorak and my rupert bear trousers.

Thank You

Bradley
