Tesco to Expand Diamond
             Boutique
Supermarket giant Tesco is to double the size and availability of its Diamond Boutique lingerie range in response to "booming" sales. 
The expansion of Diamond Boutique will come in January 2010, with Tesco Clothing CEO Terry Green pledging to offer more designs, more sizes and 
increased availability across the UK. 
The aggressive move reflects Tesco's ambition to win a bigger slice of the UK lingerie sector, currently dominated by Marks & Spencer with a 26% market share. 
The third collection of Diamond Boutique, created by Michelle Mone of MJM International, was launched September 28, featuring eight new designs in materials including silk, satin and lace. 
Mone, creator of the Ultimo bra, said of the planned expansion: "This is really fantastic news and testament to the fact that, despite the current climate, consumers are responding really well to value-for-money brands like Diamond Boutique. 
"There's been a huge explosion in the sale of lingerie on the high street as people tighten their purse strings." 
Tesco boasts that Diamond Boutique offers a combination of sophisticated designs and supermarket prices, claiming that a luxury silk bra normally retailing at GBP40 (US$64) costs only GBP14.

All in the Perspective 
Two mothers met for coffee. “Well Ruthie, how are the kids?” 
“To tell you the truth, my son has married a real tramp!” says Ruth. “She doesn’t get out of bed until 11. She’s out all day spending his money on Heaven knows what, and when he gets home, exhausted, does she have a nice hot dinner for him? Ha! She makes him take her out to dinner at an expensive restaurant.” 
“Oh! What a shame. And how about your daughter?” 
“Ah! Now there’s a lucky girl. She has married a saint. He brings her breakfast in bed, he gives her enough money to buy whatever she needs, and in the evening he always takes her out to dinner at a nice restaurant.”
