Re: What is your favourite Supermarket?

Waitrose is my favourite but cost prohibitive to shop at all the time..

Re: What is your favourite Supermarket?

I watched the program and I was quite interested in the results, and somewhat surprised.
Predominantly we shop at tesco, for no other reason than it is local (opposite side of our estate 1\2 mile walk or 1 mile in a car)
I find the quality of tesco own products slightly better than adsa but asda is slightly cheaper and 2.5 miles from home. Morrisons is on a par with tesco but 8 miles from home.
Aldi & Lidle are about 8 miles from home both offer cheap products not all of which sit well with my pallette.

So although we tend to use tesco for around 80% of our shopping its only through conveinence and I\we dont really have a favorite.

Re: What is your favourite Supermarket?

Tesco for weekly shop/branded products. Morrisons for Meat/Fish/fresh produce. Morrison's are miles better than Tesco for fresh stuff.

Lidl and, to a lesser extent, Tesco.

Re: What is your favourite Supermarket?

I voted Asda, as we do go there most often out of all those listed. I am always surprised that our shopping doesn't come to more than what it does at the till in Asda! *taps pocket*

Re: What is your favourite Supermarket?

Sainsburys for us even though we have a massive Tesco close by and a smaller Waitrose. Can't seem to get on with Tesco and Waitrose is that bit more expensive. Sainsburys quality is very good and the prices not bad plus we can walk there so it's carbon friendly too.

Re: What is your favourite Supermarket?

All in how the question is worded.
Waitrose has always been a favourite for me because of the choice, staff, store layout & quality.
However I generally shop at Sainsburys because they are cheaper and I don't have to spend a fortune in fuel for the car (nearest decent sized Asda, Aldi or Tesco are 15 miles away).
Nevertheless I am considering Asda as they now deliver to our area. Really do not like Tesco.

Re: What is your favourite Supermarket?

Hmm.

I use ASDA the most, purely because it is both the closest and the cheapest of my local supermarkets.

However, I do hate the place, so wouldn't really class it as a "favourite".
