Certainly for Tesco it does, as when you don't stock something it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy that it won't sell!
I would also take Tesco to task on pricing on the stuff they do sell. One day London Pride is €1.99, the next it's €2.49. That's a 25% jack. To customers that screams GOUGE!

I don't buy LP there any more as a result... I can get it on the 6 for €12 in Superquinn. But you're absolutely right.

What was the thread title again? Maybe the discount period has lapsed. Now you're hooked on going to Tesco for your tipple. A textbook Tesco marketing ploy.

If anyone's looking for some bargain basement English bitter, Drinkstore are currently selling short dated Greenking IPA for €1 a can. It's not bad IMO.
