difficulties) to take a job within their local community. As for the price
of Special K (as quoted by one correspondent) the price in Tesco
today is £2.88, so I imagine it was a special offer price quoted by
Martin Willis and that's in a Tesco Extra store I wouldn't expect
Tesco Express stores (with their smaller product range and higher
distribution costs) to match the pricing in the larger superstores.

Dear Editor
Phillippa in Olney (March issue) is not the only customer to dislike
`piped music' in supermarkets. I too shop at Olney Market for
exactly the reasons she gives but I am now also able to shop at the
Olney Co-op without the constant distraction of piped music.
I could have chosen not to shop at all at the Olney Co-op but, as I
have been a lifetime supporter of the Co-operative movement, I did
not want to tranfer totally to Sainsbury's, Tesco or Waitrose who do
not have `piped music' during the day. After speaking to other
customers in the Olney Co-op over a few weeks, I found that they
too disliked the constant music although none of us objected to
hearing the adverts, info on special offers, etc., broadcast over the
PA system. The fact that other customers felt as I did gave me the
courage to take it further. I was put in touch with Mark Rogers the
Operations Manager responsible for the Olney Co-op who could not
have been more courteous and helpful. I now have permission to
speak to the staff at the Olney Co-op, who were similarly courteous
and helpful, and to have no music whilst I shop. What a difference it
makes! In this technologically expert, computer facilitated, day and
age there is no reason why systems cannot be set up to screen out
the music but leave the ads and announcements in.
Other Olney Co-op customers who feel as I do might also wish to
contact Mark Rogers if they wish to shop peacefully. The Olney store
has his postal address and his email address.
