In Ireland, Tesco’s is perceived as being reasonably good value, but certainly not really cheap like Lidl or Aldi. I find that actually the one in my home town is quite expensive – it depends on what you’re looking for, their alcohol is competitively priced, and the food i certainly cheaper than another Enlgish export, Marks & Spencer, which is regarded as more upmarket. Most stores would be along the lines of the ‘superstore’ described above, although there are now some Express stores (bad value!) and some larger ones with petrol stations.

Not sure why you’d say Tesco isn’t a working class store ? It certainly is in it’s home country of England – although of course I can’t comment on how it is perceived in other countries. It’s on the same level as ASDA (now a subsiduary of WalMart) and just below Sainsbruys. These are the 3 supermarket leaders in the UK.
