Crazy Prices (occasionally Super Crazy Prices) was a supermarket chain operating in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland formerly owned by Associated British Foods. When Associated British Foods sold its Irish operation in the late 1990s to Tesco, the stores were rebranded to Tesco (in Northern Ireland) and Tesco Ireland (in the Republic).
Crazy Prices were noted for concentration on price reductions at the expense of presentation, including the Yellow Pack brand and presenting goods to shoppers still in warehouse packaging. They were among the first supermarkets in Ireland to regularly offer late-night opening - further detailed in the Tesco Ireland article.
Famous quotes containing the words crazy and/or prices:
“It’s almost impossible to deal with a crazy man, except that he does have religious beliefs, and the world of Islam will be damaged if a fanatic like him should commit murder in the name of religion against 60 innocent people.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
“On the breasts of a barmaid in Sale
Were tattooed the prices of ale;
And on her behind
For the sake of the blind
Was the same information in Braille.”
