Tesco Express has sat on Mount Pleasant for a couple of years and up to now, it has done really good business in terms of attracting all the students, just by daily observation. This small yet convenient store is the ideal place for passers by who are looking to buy basic items such as snacks, magazines and drinks. However, prices are a touch higher than your main Tesco Metro in the city centre. This does make sense considering it is an Express version, so it is almost like an emergency shop in some cases. It saves time but it doesn’t save money, although the difference is only talking pennies! This Tesco Express is open till as late as 11pm, so it is a great option for people who live nearby.
