Default Is Uber Bleeding to Death?

A smaller range of products *can* be a good thing, provided it is very
well selected, which by and large it is.


Their product range is extremely unpredictable. Only yesterday I went
in to buy something they've had for sale for a few months, and they've
obviously churned their stock in that [soft drinks] aisle from "Summer"
to "Autumn" and it's no longer available.

They also never stock quite a few really basic things (sour cream is
something I think is on that list, and yet they sell lots of 'other'
Tex-Mex stuff).


I almost didn't find frozen Yorkshire puddings there yesterday, but they
do have two types (neither of them the home-bake variety).
