As a matter of fact, Lidl has the best orange juice. £1 shop, boots, superdrug have the same wholesaler. Don't waste your money wink

Ha! so I go into LIDL for orange juice, then drive down to ASDA for the rest of my shopping. what I save on juice i waste on petrol. Denzel na wa for you o! you dont have any pity for me at all at all cheesy

No but seriously their orange juice is point.I used to be a lidl snub until I drank their juice in a friends house.Really nice.As good as or even better than tropicana.
I am with CC, I cant buy plantain in Tesco lai lai.

Am not a tesco fan but as Coogar said they are everywhere. The one in area is an extra so one way or the other you find yourself going in there.

I love Sainsburys and M&S own product range the most though.

Lol, why would you drive to ASDA when you can easily push trolley from LIDL to ASDA?

Err.. I think Sainsbury's has the best stuffs (maybe I'm biased cos I worked there at age 16/17). Lidl has the best plum tomatoes(according to mum) and I like their scotch egg, baked beans and apple crumble pie. And Iceland is the best for frozen food.

waitrose stock the best products - their fruit drinks are addictive. yes, they are quite expensive but who cares. sainsburys are 2nd choice for me. i can't be bothered about the others.

My SIL is the wierdest person ever, she draws uplists, goes to my ssupermarket.com, then checks the prices of everything she wants to buy.She then ticks what cheapest at what shop and goes there shocked

So on one Saturday,she drives to Tesco, Asda, Sainsburys, Morrisons, Lidl all just looking for bargain.Pennywise pound and time foolish IMO cos what of the cost of petrol or time she could have been lounging.She is always urging me to try it but lai lai I no get time for that one.Ahan on top maybe pata pata 15 pounds savings . besides all shops do price match so whats the point.When I say that, she says ok but hen Iceland has the best prawns, Tesco has best mixed veg, bla bla by then I've tuned off grin grin grin

Efe morrisons is the only food shop that closes at 8pm everyday or is it 10pm sef, so people dont really patronize it. Its very strange because it is a huge shop and I cant for the life of me understand why they are not open 24 hours like all the others.

I know, but I just love them die. Shame Netto isn't in operation. At least not where we live. Those were real Pound Stretchers especially come Xmas. A huge, huge, turkey would go 2 for £10 or similar (limited special offers). Speaking of which, I always buy my turkeys end of Oct / early Nov and deep freeze till night of 23rd Dec... tongue

Anyway, There's a 24 hours store hubby always goes to for shopping. Can't for the life of me remember which? Aldi abi Asda?? undecided undecided

expensive what? it's the cheapest store i have been. they would still cajole you to get their store card which gives you another 10% extra discount or so.
