Did you know that Safeway was so called because it was the only (or one of the first) stores to have automatic doors. Presumably it was safer to walk through when carrying heavy shopping. Interesting fact!

Interesting fact! Or even that they were the first grocer not to offer credit to it's customers thus being the safe way for families to shop without getting into debt

Iceland (the store) may well have to revert to Bejams! Iceland (the country) has taken out legal proceedings against the store for their rights to use that name even though they started using it in the 70's.

Eve if the supermarket lose - they won't - all they would have to do is put a small hyphen after 'Ice' and hey presto!

Too many implications on crockery, pastries etc. The other point is that they actually use the spelling Island, not Iceland. Or are we going to go after the French for creme anglaise and they us for french mustard?
Optimistic as ever |
