I AM really sad to hear that the Co-op at Midanbury is closing on Saturday.
It upsets me when giant superstores appear to railroad their way into shopping areas where similar shops exist and those shops then lose custom and go out of business.
I’ve tried to make a stand by not using Sainsbury’s in Portswood, nor the Tesco at Midanbury since they opened, but it doesn’t stop shops such as the Co-op going out of business.
The Co-op closes, but shopping along the road at Tesco is not for me thanks.
