dieselbabe Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Morrisons that only because i live near one now.befor that use to be tesco's.
nightrider Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 I use coop. Its the only place within walking distance (well apart from netto, but you cant get a lot of stuff you need there!)
Angel05 Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Used to shop at Morrisons until we moved now shop at Asda... (not much of a difference on the pocket...)
muddycoffee Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 I used to be a complete snob, but after seeing rich people in Germany shopping in Lidl and Netto. I get lots of stuff from Netto, and top up with visits to Spar or CoOp late shop. Especially since I have been back on the motorbike, I don't like going into large supermarkets where I can't keep an eye on it.
Sheffette Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 I don't really do a weekly shop, just buy food as and when needed. We have a decent fruit and veg shop near us which is cheaper than supermarket prices, and a corner shop (which, er, isn't, but good if you run out of stuff!) I particularly like Beanies, which sells great veg including organic, lots of yummy veggie sausages and all manner of wonderful foodstuffs. Get my shampoo and soap from the herbalists at Hunter's Bar. Bread comes from the bakery at Nether Edge and for really special stuff there is a great deli on Sharrowvale Road. London Road has loads of great places to shop, including supermarkets for Chinese and Asian foods where you can buy spices very cheaply. I like smaller shops, they add to an area, so its good to try and support them if you can. However, I only work part time so I do sometimes have the odd afternoon spare so I can wander round and see what's there. I know lots of people work hard and have kids so supermarkets make sense time-wise. That said, I'm not exactly Mrs Pennybags so ma and pa's larder comes in handy for raiding on a lean week!
