Wholesale supermarkets near SE22?


Minitoots

Recommended Posts

A group of about 20 of us are hiring a house for a long weekend and are trying to work out how to bulk buy food / drink in advance to cook fairly basic meals - can anyone recommend any wholesale supermarkets fairly near to SE22 where we can save a bit of money?

It isn't a bulk supermarket, but Aldi is considerably cheaper than every other supermarket . The one on old kent road it pretty accessible by bus and there is also one near catford that is good. Just as an e.g a massive pack of chicken thighs (great roasted - for a cheap meal have a look at nigella's indian chicken thigh potato recipe) are ?1.80.

Their supersix fruit and veg offers are good. They also have a red wine called Duoro that is ?5 a bottle, won an award and is tasty!

also - on booze. Sainsburys sometimes do an offer where you buy 6 bottles of wine and get 25% off - not sure if that is on yet, but might be worth checking out - they also deliver, so you could have the booze delivered directly to the place you are hiring - we always do this when we go away as a big group!

    • Has Helen Hayes replied? If there was ever a reason for an MP to get involved surely this is it? How is it that a bunch of profiteering wide boys were handed TJ on a plate? I am surprised this has not hit the press big time.
    • I have never been able to get an appointment.  Even getting repeat prescriptions is a battle.  They are the very worst GP practise I have ever been with.  You can not book an appointment in advance.  It is terrible I need to change to another practice.  Does anyone recommend another GP practise please.  It is very stressful trying to get through on the phone and the apps are even worse.

But I am not surprised.   Plus they quote themselves as booking advance appointments. Which is a total untruthful statement.  
    • Once again I received a negative experience with Tessa Jowell GP Practice. On Friday 22nd March 2024. I needed an appointment. at 8:00am, I consulted the evergreen website, to book an appointment, and I also started a telephone call at the exact time - 8:00am. While on hold, I repeatedly tried to arrange an appointment online as the surgery encourages its patience to book an appointment through this method., On each occassion, I am seeing a message informing me the evergreen service is closed. I do not understand why its closed, and why i am unable to book an appointment. Its 8am, and I am expecting this service to be ready for use. I finally abandoned trying to secure a GP appointment, and remain on the telephone line, waiting patiently for someone to answer my telephone call. Despite my telephone call starting at approximately 8:00am, the telephone call is disappointingly not answered until 8:44am, almost 45 minutes, which is totally unacceptable. This is not an acceptable level of service, especially for patience whom are ill, and waiting for an appointment. My experience goes from bad to worse, when i am advised there are no appointments for the day to offer me, and I am advised to call back after the weekend. If I have telephoned on the exact time the surgery opens, how can there not be an appointment? This surgery is not fit for purpose, and there are clear signs, this surgery is not fulfilling its contract. I am not happy, as each time I have contact with this organization, there appears to be a problem.  
    • Hi all,  I just want to ask you all to be vigilant when buying any items.  I recently went to buy an item.  I won't say exactly what it was because I do not want to embarrass the seller.  Anyway as I was carrying it to our car I noticed a red Beatle thing on it.  As we looked at the item it was covered in orange red bugs.  Hiding in corners and eggs etc.  It was a very unpleasant experience and has put me off anything ATM.  I obviously returned the item and got my cash back.  But it was awful and  scary as I could have ended up with a infestation.  later I googled bed bugs and this confirmed what we thought they were.   So please look carefully at any item you purchase and do your research.
