Tesco Extreme

I can't help but notice how the Tesco money-machine has marketed new breeds of super-convenient consumer pits. We have Tesco Express, Tesco Extra, Tesco Metro, Regular Tesco. When are we due Tesco Lite? Tesco Extra Cold? Tesco With Lime? Tesco Mach III Turbo?

How about Tesco Inferno, where the aisles are filled with flashing lights and pumping disco tunes? Or Tesco Extreme, where you have two minutes to get in and out before the staff chase you out with paintball guns?

Meaningless marketing hype. Gotta love it.
