FRIDGES at an Oxfordshire branch of Tesco have failed for the second time in as many months.
According to a post from a shopper on a residents' Facebook page today, the supermarket in Faringdon is unable to sell chilled produce.
The same problem happened at the same store at the end of June, and it is thought that the hot weather could have contributed to the malfunction.

Supermarkets generally remove stock from the shelves if fridges and freezers dip above a certain temperature, due to health and safety reasons.
A Tesco spokesperson said: "I can confirm that we’re having issues with our refrigerated units in Faringdon and we’re working hard to get these fixed."
