Vote for Favourite Supermarket

[ChavWivaLawDegree]

LIDL is my all time favourite and my least favourite is a toss up between Tesco & Asda cos they are bloodsucking destroyers of community, farming and society in general, plus their food is crap.

I use Waitrose at Canary Wharf. It's blooming marvellous.

[Ladygooner]

I like Auchan best (just can't find any in England)

Auchan was the best french supermarket for filling your car with wine better than Leclerc anytime.

Best value supermarket for me is Asda old kent rd

Most expensive waitrose

Auchan in Calais - great French stuff and cheap and a bloody great Sainsbos winery sharing the car park. The Bricolage is good too - knocks spots of B&Q.

Have to say, having shopped in all (well most) of the above local supermarkets, on account of having to carefully watch my budget and purse, I have discovered the following:-

1. While people think Lidls is quite cheap, (some stuff is) a lot of their things are quite highly priced, every day things like milk at 1.30 for four pints etc. and quite a few necessary household items are as expensive as Asda and even Sainsburys on occasion, I was quite surprised. Nettos is in fact cheaper by far for buying tinned things like beans at 9p-10p a tin whereas Lidls charge 25p a tin for their bully bargain beans, Nettos in fact taste better too.

2. Morrisons is cheapest for buying fruit and veg and getting value for money there.

3. Asda is great when you have to buy cheap school/ordinary clothes for the kids, but they also have quite a few items of food that are really cheap too. Also Iceland have a great buy one get one free thing going on, good to go shopping with a mate and split the food this way and the costs!

4. I wish I could afford to food shop in M&S! lol! when I win the lottery! Have to say I do the bulk of my shopping at Morrisons but when I'm really skint go to Nettos. Meat shopping done in my local bully bargain butchers where you can get 15lbs chicken legs/breast for something like ?2.99, pork/lamb chops, etc. at very reasonable prices and way cheaper than any of the supermarkets.

After a month without my car, schlepping up and down LL feeing very worthy buying stuff from different shops I finally got said vehicle and went to Sainsurys today.

Terrible crowds, too busy car park, shocking prices, no bloody aubergines.

Loved it, met two EDFers, had a Starbies skinny Latte, bought all my shopping in one go, no sore hands or shoulder, bloody loved it.

[ChavWivaLawDegree]

My car got chewed by rats just before Xmas - ?1200 worth of damage from the skinny tailed little feckers. Insurance coughed thankfully.

[citizenED]

Wasn't this in the current bun, "Rats Eat Man's Motor"?

[Brendan]

?1200 worth of damage?!? Was it one of these guys?

I here you are never more than 30 000km away from one in London.

[citizenED]

Although there are some at Battersea Children's Zoo, Brendan. Maybe they escaped.

Back on thread: sainsburies is my nearest supermarket large enough to do the weekly shop - and therefore it's my favourite one.

[Brendan]

Well spottedd that man. Anyway large rodents munching merrily on Michael's motor aside;

I don?t really associate the words ?favorite? and ?Supermarket? with each other.

?Necessary? I think is a better adjective.

[SeanMacGabhann]

:)-D Brendan - but as the thread is polling specifically I've kept schtum on the whole subject

[Michael Palaeologus]

It was your average Ratus Ratus, although Capybara's (or some other larg exotic rodent) are living wild somewhere in the UK - East Anglia?
