Ralphus Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 Meat from the butchers, fruit and veg from the greengrocers everything else from Morrisons. Meat from the supermarket (even the more up-market ones) is rubbish compared to that of a good butcher. The same goes for fruit and veg, the stuff from the supermarket is insipid and tasteless compared to stuff from a decent greengrocer.
MrH Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 Originally posted by redrobbo Can't vote! I no longer have a car, and thus no longer do a weekly shop. I shop at Netto (just down the road from my house) - for essentials.....and when I know I can avoid the long queues at the check-out! I often shop at Somerfield in the city centre, as it's dead handy when I'm in town. Tonight I caught the bus to Woodseats, where I shopped at Tesco, then walked to Spar for a few things, and then walked up the hill to Morrisons to complete my shopping trip. When I'm out and about in Arbourthorne or Heeley Green, I shop at the Co-op! When staying with my partner in Hull, I shop at the nearby Sainsburys. Only go to Waitrose 10 mins before closing time - to see what bargains can be had! Otherwise, it's too expensive for shopping. Gotcha! Saw you in Tesco, Infirmary Road last week - not only did you not say hello, you haven't mentioned it on your list! That is where I do my weekly shop - and I have seen other Forumers in there too.

I shop there usually, on a Thursday or Friday evening. Venue for the next forum meet: aisle 3, near the milk
