101 reasons to boycott Tescos

101 Uses For is popular and let's hope it stays that way. Our second book is presently called 101 tips for self sufficiency; we will certainly dip into this section for ideas. So post away and let's try and get at least one thread up to 101.

That is quite a lot more expensive than France (doing a bit of currency conversion here on XE com) - we pay about 80c for one litre of fresh milk, which is AUS$1.33 which x2 = $2.66!

However there are rather a lot of cows in France and somewhat less surface area than Australia to transport said milk around!
