Tesco Extra submits plans for new facilities for shoppers to enjoy
A SALISBURY Tesco will have new facilities for shoppers to enjoy, so long as plans are approved by the council. Tesco put in an application to Wiltshire Council for its Tesco Extra superstore on Bourne Way on Tuesday, July 29. According to the county council's planning portal, the plan is for new "click and collect parking". As well as the new parking, the canopy above it will be "finished in Red RAL 3020, with galvanised steel posts for support and 14 new bollards."

Parents are racing to a major store to snap up back to school essentials – & they bag a mega haul for under £10
WHETHER your kid is heading to primary or secondary school in the next few weeks, sending the children back to the classroom isn't cheap. According to a report by financial provider Shepherds Friendly, the total cost for school uniform across your child's education can hit nearly £5,000 - while after school clubs, holiday childcare and school meals bump the cost up further. 2 2 This means millions of cash-strapped Brit parents are on the lookout for affordable ways to slash the expenses wherever possible - and now, one savvy shopper has come to the rescue with a purse-friendly buy. According to Samantha Scott, a major UK superstore has slashed the price of all the necessary back to school essentials - and you can bag a mega haul of stationery for under a tenner. So, if your little one keeps losing their pens, pencils and other school must-haves, you may wish to plan a trip to the nearest Tesco pronto. During her visit at the popular retailer, the lucky shopper got her hands on a huge variety of stationery, including pencils with eraser tips, pastel ballpoint pens, sharpies and more. Showing off the incredible haul on Facebook, Samantha said: ''Stationery all reduced in Tesco. In the post, Samantha - one of the 2.6million members of the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group - revealed she had also purchased cut-price finger paint set, Tipp-Ex, several sticky tapes and neon sticky notes. Other wallet-friendly bargains in the epic sale also included glue sticks and colourful highlighters. In total, the Tesco customer had bagged more than 30 different items for the bargain deal of less than £10. According to Samantha, fellow shoppers can find the jaw-dropping price reductions in the general aisle - and not near the back to school shelves. Amazing Back-to-School Deals You Can't Miss! She went on in the comments: ''Some items were on the original shelfs with yellow stickers the rest were just marked down on the shelf.'' Uploaded less than 24 hours ago, the post has already taken the internet by storm, winning Samantha a whopping 1.3k likes. Keen to snap up the goodies, more than 300 members of the page flooded to comments, where many tagged their friends and family. I've only ever bought one jumper and a shirt Janine McDonald uses swaps and local community resources to find school uniform for her two daughters – now 13 and 15. They're both in different schools, with different uniform, but Janine, who is a single mum, has limited the expense by swapping and finding donated items to fit both girls. She says: 'At both schools, they have a pre-loved uniform section, so you can go in and either swap something or buy it for just literally a couple of pounds.' In Manchester where Janine lives there are Gateway centres which are a 'one-stop-shop' for a wide range of council and community services. She added: 'The local gateway hubs hold a uniform Donation Point so you can just drop off any uniform there, and then anybody is free just to come and have a look and take anything that they need. 'I find they last absolutely fine, so I don't need to buy new. "I reckon that has saved me a couple of hundred pounds for each child.' Janine, who has taken her recycling expertise and turned it into a decluttering business Clear the Clutter Now, says that setting up or joining a community WhatsApp group is another way to get cheap uniform. The mum explains: 'In the streets around where I live at the end of the school year, we'll put on there, whatever age trousers we've got from whichever school, and then people just give them to each other.' She recommends that parents, as well as looking for free uniform, take school uniform lists with a pinch of salt. 'You get the uniform list, and sometimes it recommends, five pairs of trousers, or X number of this, X number of that,' she says. 'Realistically, you don't need that many. "You can always buy one to start with and top up if needed.' One cried after realising they had paid the full price: ''We shopped to soon.'' ''Love a bargain,'' someone else chimed in. ''Cost me 35 pound for my kids,'' a mum had seen the post too late.

To tip or not to tip: That is David Sedaris' question
My friend Dawn has two cats. and I went with her one afternoon to buy a bag of litter. This was in Minnesota, at a superstore that sold front doors and Halloween decorations and pet supplies, everything, under one roof. I'm guessing the bag of litter we got weighed a good 40 pounds. It was really heavy, and I thought that if the only way you could get it home was to carry it in your arms, you'd probably put your cats to sleep after they'd gone through the first bag. The next morning I left Dawn's house and flew to North Dakota. While in the Minneapolis airport I went for breakfast at one of those places where you order from a screen. Then you enter all your credit card information, and the machine asks if you want to tip 15%, 20%, or 22%. For what? I thought. I mean, I sat myself. I ordered myself. I'm paying myself. Someone would bring me the plate of eggs, but it would be relatively light – it's nothing compared to the bag of litter I (or, OK, Dawn) had carried across a frozen parking lot the previous afternoon. And the thing is, if you don't hit the 22% option, you feel like a cheapskate. Here you are, about to fly on a plane. Can you afford the extra 60 cents? Of course you can. I just feel that a portion of my tip should go toward me for all the work I've already done. Then the person brings you your food and you see that she's an immigrant, and you think of how your grandparents were immigrants as well. Mine shined shoes while people shouted. "Learn to speak English, why don't you?" Years later they opened a newsstand that sold Playboys, and when people told them they were going to hell, they still didn't understand them because they never really learned English. They were so lazy that way, my grandparents. Send them to the store for cat litter and they'd have likely brought home a sack of bird seed. And so, I felt better about my 22% tip. The woman earned it just for going through security. But wait, I thought, as I walked away: I went through security as well! It was too late to take back my extra 60 cents, though, and so I went to my gate, and flew first class to North Dakota. Me, a grandchild of immigrants! For more info: Story produced by Amy Wall.
