It's practically in Camberwell is where it is. Hmmmm, how it's arranged wrong? Good question, all I know is that I can find what I want in other Sainsburys and in this one I am there for an extra half an our on average looking for things that should be in obvious places.

Um, is there something wrong with your legs? It's next to ED station


Ah, you said you'd just moved to Dulwich (no 'East'). Do you mean the Village? If so, don't worry, you'll soon get fit walking over to all the pubs and restaurants on Lordship lane, then Sainsbuy's won't seem so far.

"Khan's International department Store" on Rye Lane in Peckham (cheaper than Sainsbury) - Indian sub-continent, some middle eastern and african cooking ingredients, cheap fruit/veg, plasticware, cheap kitchen utensils and loads of other stuff. And it's not a 'department store' in the conventional sense, it sells loads of different 'stuff', all on one floor.


Wing Tai Chinese supermarket at Camberwell (opposite McDonalds) or Peckham (near Morrisons). For Thai / Chinese / Indo-Chinese ingredients.


The posts above tell you where to get ordinary groceries closer to home, but here's where you can go to get your foreign gear.

It is in walking distance. About five minutes walk, to be precise.

I am by Woodwarde Road. @Jeremy - it was a neighbour who told me about Somerfield - they said it was on Lordship Lane along with several other posters here. I fail to see how this makes me a WUM!!! But thank you for your kind input.


East Dulwich station is quite a walk - is there really nothing bigger closer? How big is the new Waitrose? Do they do other things to groceries?


I have just moved from Collier's Wood - they have a big Sainsbury's there which does TV's, DVD players, clothes etc as well as the groceries :(

OK, you're not a WUM. Do you really stay clear of Google in case of a nuclear strike?

      Vet recommendation

      By NewWave · Posted

      I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.

      Be careful in local shops

      By bonaome · Posted

      In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.

      Bitey Fox.

      By SophieA · Posted

      There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can.
