Happy Face 29 Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 I'm a Tesco man personally - the Tesco Extra off the Coast Road is a regular haunt. I bought a shredded in there at the weekend. It's what the long weekend is all about. 122942[/snapback] Very family oriented though. All this buy 1 get one free shite is no good for the singleton. Have to pay over the odds for 1 item because the free one goes off before consuming it. I prefer permanantly low prices *slaps the spare copper in arse pocket a couple of times* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alex Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Asda for cheapness, Sainsburys for choice. 122978[/snapback] Having said that, for beer and wine (red wine anyway), Asda has the best choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isegrim 9909 Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 The thing with both Lidl and Aldi is (well, that's what it is here in Jormany) that they mostly sell second label products. So you get many products who are totally identical with branded articles for much cheaper prices. And I know from Aldi that they have a strict quality control. They have a clause in their contracts with suppliers that they can kick every product out of their sortiment if it gets poor ratings from consumer organisations.

Toonraider 0 Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 i like sainsburys, great choice but takes me way too long to shop there and i spend a fortune I like my local tescos best, its not a huge store so i can find what i want quickly, basically i just hate food shopping.
