Really? I don't think this is right. Whilst I try to avoid supermarkets at all costs maybe I'm no expert on pricing, but shopping around elsewhere these days tells me that better and usually less dear produce is to be found anywhere but supermarkets. There are local stalls on different days in a variety of accessible locations selling high quality stock whether loose fruit and veg - especially seasonal - condiments, dried goods, organic everything, and good butchers with outdoor slow-reared organic meat (ie. proper meat) all at good prices. The wine on LSL is also far better than Sainsburys' slop. Truly excellent bread to be loved as well. With a little dedication you can shop better products with better prices by market and high street shopping (at least you can in most of London). Also, you get to actually talk to real human people. And you can't get a deal with a supermarket robot that's taken the last checkout lady's job. Supermarkets are bloody awful: carparks, bad food and soulless. Full of machines and zombies.
