Church burning in cork? (2 Viewers)

Right, this is how it goes in terms of class analysis

Aldi> Lidl> Tescos> Dunnes Stores> Super Value> Superquinn> Marks and Spencers> Health Store> Temple Bar market> Donnybrook Fair

Yeah? Left anything out?

i think tescos should be higher than super valu, it depends on the tescos, though. tescos phibsboro is pretty low in the chain but tesco merrion is only a step below marks and spencers; i also think 'organic produce outlet' should be substituted for 'health store', and you're right, donnybrook fair is fabulous. it must be the only shop anywhere where you can get dutch gold and marinated artichokes in one stop.
"ya, five bottles of dom perignon and 10 dutch please, my good man. and lash a few of those biscotti on my tab while you're at it."

amazing. even within a simple supermarket-based class structure we have disagreement. is there no hope for the human race.

Yeah but you have to include own brand prices, I also forgot dumpster diving/skipping, that's somewhere between 'organic produce outlet' and temple bar market

Me and my parents just had a huge row out in the street with my neighbours whose kids are constantly looking through our windows (skylight window tonight!) that must be worth some class points.

Patrick Bateman: I'm on a diet.
Jean: What? You're kidding, right? You look great... so fit... and thin.
Patrick Bateman: Well, you can always look thinner.
Jean: Then maybe we shouldn't go out to dinner. I wouldn't want you to lose your willpower.
Patrick Bateman: That's okay. I'm not very good at controlling it anyway.

Tescos is higher then Dunnes ffs

What I'd like to know is, where does The Bounty Store on Camden Street fit into all of this? I'm sure that some of the stuff on sale there was skipped out of the back of Dunnes in Rathmines.
