Wholesale supermarkets near SE22?

[Minitoots]

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!

thanks Woodland, that's very helpful.

Sounds like Costco would be well worth a visit?
