Tesco is voted the least popular supermarket.
 
Tesco is the UK's least popular supermarket and Waitrose is the most liked - according to a new survey.

No surprise there.

l have always been a Sainsbury's man although we do pop into Morrisons now and again but yes Waitrose in my mind is way too expensive for us poor folk.

Waitrose claim to have the same prices as Tesco on branded products. I haven't checked, I prefer to shop at Morrison's. But we'll occasionally drive 15 odd miles to Waitrose for the yummy stuff that Morrison's doesn't stock.

But Yeah, Waitrose is relatively expensive, but they have a great range if you're a foodie,

Waitrose are a responsible market trader..so you pay for the added reassurance and better value.

Tescos(and Asda) ram down prices and still sell you crap.

Sainsbury claims to be upmarket but frankly they sell the same stuff and are more expensive.

You basically get what you are prepared to pay for.

Absolute load of crap. Waitrose and M&S over priced and rubbish CS and produce. Tesco the best.

I use tesco simply because there's one a few hundred yards down the road.

Before I moved to my current address I used Asda, as that was closest.

I wouldn't bother going out of my way to use any specific supermarket.

Anyway, Tescos clubcard is good and I get about £30-£40 back in vouchers on it every time, which I use for a treat.

l find Sainsbury's own branded products to be of a much superior quality then the other supermarkets own brands.

Well we all spend our money and are entitled to spend it wherever it suits each of us as if we all had the same likes and dislikes then life would be boring.

We have an Aldi and a Sainsburys next door to each other which now works well for me. Whilst our shopping centre was being rebuilt I ended up shopping at either Tesco or Asda and hated them both.
