We have a Tesco's over our garden wall. They do some good things, like not quibbling when you take stuff back that is defective or mouldy, they just refund your money. They also have, as a company in the past, done a lot do deflate unreasonably expensive goods such as jeans, books, CDs. I know you can argue that a good proportion of jeans in Tescos are made in sweatshops and you are right, but so are all the expensive designer clothes as well.
On the minus side they are not content with having a large supermarket right in the middle of a residential area only 5 mins walk from the high street, they now want to enlarge the store, treble the parking and frankly wreck this end of Wells in the name of making a little more money.
Tesco, if you read this, those dirty great sotres like the one you are planning for Princes road are generally called out of town for a reason. Principally that the infrastructure in the town is not designed to handle them. There are at least 2 large sites less than half a mile away that are on the edge of Wells so go build your store there
