Outrageously, sainsburys have halved the bag size of the king Edwards potatoes, but they are still claiming they are 2kg. And they are still the same price.


They are no way near 2kg, one bag use to overfill my saucepan, now the bag I brought on Thursday doesn't even fill half the pot. It's outrageous they are now false advertising.

you can buy them in Nunhead. You need a better local high street. Nunhead has an excellent independent supermarket, Ayers bakery, Sopers fish, a proper greengrocer, a proper butcher, a post office, a chemist/hardware shop, a bike repair shop and a great coffee shop. Why go anywhere else?

Get a veg box, seasonal and fresh. The one I get has different potato types in the general box and they always taste amazing. I hardly ever buy veg from Sainsbury?s. I like their organic meat and some things in the vegan range for my partner are really good. The veg isn?t that great, with the exception of tomatoes and herbs.

Herne Hill Market on a Sunday is great - pity one caan't have something in ED.


Veg box local greens in Herne Hill then there is Abel and Cole and Riverford - latter use not to be as flexible and if all else fails, or not your bag, peckham and Brixton Markets.


We really are spoilt for choice..

The usual sanctimonious rubbish. Most people use the supermarket sometimes. Try carrying a whole weeks shopping for a family of four down Nunhead Lane!


The key is to use a mix of local shops/markets when you can on the weekends (especially meat, fish, bakery and speciality shops) and supermarket (or delivery) for the bulk.

Seriously there's loads of conversations online about weights getting less and prices remaining the same - but not many about weights being mislabelled - wonder if they've reduced to 1.2 Kg and mislabelled. Note: All Sainsbury's stuff says you can return if not satisfied.

    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
    • I love the fact that virtually everyone held their hands out when furlough payments were made yet can't equate massive debt with massive cash payments to keep the economy ticking over.   
    • The problem with delivery people nowadays is that they are on such a restrictive schedule that they literally have to just try to deliver and run, otherwise they are penalised. I understand the frustration though.   And good luck making any kind of complaint to Evri. I once sold a laptop on ebay, took it to the Evri pick-up, where it was processed and it then went 'missing' between their pick-up place and the hub. Went through a long, long process where they offered me a desultory amount in compensation and I had to take them to small claims court before they came up with a fair offer the day before we were due to be in court. Long story short, Evri are shite.   Go to look at this forum for the number of people who have issues: https://nationalconsumerservice.co.uk/forum/183-postal-and-delivery-services/
    • I haven't had a rude EVRI delivery but last week I had an unexpected delivery at 10.42 pm. He didn't ring the bell or knock on the door (or rattle the letter flap) but just took a photo and put the box down.  If it hadnt been for the door camera giving us a beep we would never have known there was a parcel ready to sit there all night.
