Sainsburys, the UKs second largest grocer, reported strong supermarket sales growth of 3.4% at established stores over the Christmas quarter, but Argos, its general merchandise chain, struggled with a 1% overall sales drop and a 2.2% decline in the final six weeks. Argos faced challenges due to weak consumer spending, heavy discounting, and increased online competition from low-priced importers. Sainsburys CEO called for government action to address tax loopholes on low-priced overseas imports and urged reviews of business rates. Despite Argos woes, Sainsburys grocery sales soared, with fresh food up 6% and its premium Taste the Difference range surging 15%. Online grocery sales also jumped 14%. The company remains on track for over £1 billion in retail profit and plans to return more than £800 million to shareholders, including a £250 million special dividend. However, shares fell over 5%, valuing the company at just over £7 billion. Analysts noted a clear retail split, with food thriving on cautious spending while general merchandise suffered from shaky confidence. Checkout Solipillow.com

Discover the lost London Underground line: the Bakerloo, planned in the 1890s to connect Victoria to Kilburn. With stops at Hyde Park, Marble Arch, Edgware Road, Maida Vale, and Kilburn High Road, it was set to cost £132 million today. Despite cheaper tickets for workers, wealthy homeowners in Mayfair and Victoria opposed it. After rerouting under Hyde Park, the plan was rejected by Parliament in 1893 due to construction concerns and profit doubts. If built, the Jubilee line might not have needed those central London tunnels. Checkout Solipillow.com
