I do most of my shopping at the local Tesco but find Sainsburys has a much better range, mmmmm quad-choc coookies
Post by: robbie on April 12, 2005, 04:31:58 pm
I go to Tesco, but I was surprised at the range of Morrisons, but it varies depending on size of store.
Farmfoods deserves a mention for a huge ice cream/ice lolly range, which are easy on the pocket.

Tesco has gone down in my estimation since I read that they buy fruit from suppliers who pay slave wages abroad. Although we have one of the biggest Tescos in the country locally, their range is not that great. Waitrose win my vote for their fair trading and their premium range.

quality choc (shame it's so damn expensive). I'd probably have voted
for them if I found green+blacks (something they seem to stock more of
than everyone else) remotely edible
Post by: loulou on April 12, 2005, 10:36:06 pm
It's Asda for me. I'm not sure if we have a Waitrose up here and I can't afford to go to Sainsburys. Our Morrisons is minging but if I go visit my mam I will go to her Morrisons because it's non-minging. Tesco was my fave for a while and I used to shop online until they started substituting half my shopping for their own brands.

I love Asda mainly cos of the white chocolate spread they do, plus they
sell a lot of stuff you cant find in many other supermarkets.

Yup, Waitrose nearly got my vote - they're the only store to sell high quality choc (shame it's so damn expensive). I'd probably have voted for them if I found green+blacks (something they seem to stock more of than everyone else) remotely edible
Green and Blacks orange and spices is excellent.

You're right about Morrison's though, they have a very good chocolate
aisle. And Waitrose is very good for high quality chocolate. It's the
only place in my area that I know sells Milka.
But overall Tesco got the vote as I visit that shop most often.

I found a really big Morrisons in Whitley Bay . I think it used to be Safeway. It has an excellent choice.
Most of them are changing over to Safeway now.

Not quite, as they were separate companies until about 18 months ago. It's just that oop North Morrisons have always been stronger and Safeway was always strong dahn South.
