It is usually open 24 hours.
I was followed by a tesco bus today so they must be open.

If it's open 24 hours why are there locks on the doors?

A friend of mine works there and apparently one of the guys in the warehouse is under investigation on the terrorism act, and they may need to close to store to perform a thorough search of the premises.

Ah well, Abbeydale Road....say no more, it's a well known al Qaeda hotspot! :hihi:

"It looked like any nondescript flat in any busy British shopping street. At morning rush hour last week hundreds of cars passed underneath its dirty windows on their way to and from Sheffield city centre. Complete with sagging roof and grimy stairway, the flat was above a DIY shop and near a bus stop.

When special Branch officers raided the flat in Abbeydale Road, Sheffield, last year, what they found was chilling. Among the piles of extremist Islamic documents was a stash of chemicals. It was triacetone triperoxide (TATP) - an explosive favoured by suicide bombers. It is also the material that British shoebomber Richard Reid used as a detonating agent. The flat was Maroni's and the implication was clear: terrorists had been living in the heart of Sheffield."

Well I have just been round and made a purchase so yes it is open at the moment, although that may answer why there were police hanging round on Wednesday night both at abbeydale road tesco and also tesco on Berkley prestinct.
