The ? shops on Rye Lane are great for tins of pulses and other basics, like olive oil, tea bags, instant coffee etc.

In the CoOp, search for the non-CoOp versions of chick peas etc because they are about 30p/tin cheaper.

Sainsbury's and Tesco have good-value cut flowers (as does CoOp, if you can get beyond the day-glo daisies).

I am frequently shocked at the prices for vegetables and fruit in Sainsbury's compared to Lidl stores. I shop around when I can.

Most supermarkets offer 'price checks' of various sorts, which are mostly smoke and mirrors, since they miss so much stuff under the guise of "no equivalent product". I had an online delivery yesterday where the price check seemed suggest that no other supermarket sells a kilo bag of carrots.

Even so, Sainsbury's used to do their price match against a range of supermarkets. They recently changed this to check against ASDA only. That probably tells you all you need to know about their competitiveness.

another vote for Forest Hill supermarket - I have been shopping in there for over ten years and the veg is good quality and really reasonable. If you've got a spare pound the ginger thin biscuits are delicious too!

I found the veg stall at the hornimans farmer's market quite good. Good stuff, and always feels quite a bit cheaper than the supermarket.
