The chippy and butcher are OK and two Co Ops is just plain greed. Bargain bin always good in the one near DIY shop. Nippy chippy in Potter for us connoisseurs though.

Seems there’s a ‘National’ Co-op and also regional variations (East of England). It still seems odd that they would complete against each other though. I’ve also noticed that Co-op branded products are increasingly visible in other local stores in villages that don’t have a Co-op, like Roy’s and Thrower’s. That’s encouraging anyway.

Chelsea14Ian Posted April 30, 2023 Author Share Posted April 30, 2023 Yes the Co-op is not the cheapest. However very handy for us.Two minute walk and stays open late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawsOrca Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Looks very good well done, Slight shame people won't see without knowing it's there (Or is there a map?) hopefully the bunting will drawer people there though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea14Ian Posted April 30, 2023 Author Share Posted April 30, 2023 Yes there is a map,available in the village. Quite a lot of people went past taking photos etc.Not sure how many Scarecrows. We went past number 40.All good fun and as if the village has woke after winter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea14Ian Posted May 1, 2023 Author Share Posted May 1, 2023 Went back up to the Village. Sadly only one photo. Had a problem with my mobility scooter.Overcast today with a little rain. Doesn't appear to be as many people today. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
