Use of The Term
Advertisers and retailers have used the name and image of a tuck shop many times to promote products or to promote a nostalgic sense of familiarity. Some shops have simply called themselves "The Tuck Shop". For example, on Holywell Street in Oxford, there is "The Tuck Shop," and, further down the road, there is "The Alternative Tuck Shop" (see photo).
