If we're breaking things down...

Asda - love it but inaccessible
Tesco - overpriced but okay, nice range of veg
Morissons - Nice. One of the very few places that sell 20% pork mince (or even 12%)
Sainsbury's - Like it but it's over an hour each way so only go rarely. They do a banging coriander mini naan bread though.
Lidl - can't use because of the giant tubs of pick-your-own nuts that people stick their hands in and then rub all over the shelves
Aldi - love it
Waitrose - love it but only when I visit family. Best for sauces/condiments
M&S - nice on payday for condiments or lunch snacks
One Stop - home of the Ice Blasts. Need I say more?
Co-Op - hate it. As soon as I get a handle on my snacking I'll hopefully never have to go back. Meat/veg is more expensive than Waitrose!

your breakdown was more detailed than mine

do any of you have Spars where you are!? I’d never do a food shop there, I hate having to nip there for an emergency pint of milk it’s well expensive

I lived next to a Spar when I was at Uni and it practically bankrupted me I don’t think we have any where I am now though, can’t remember the last time I saw one

We have spars dotted around, mostly connected to petrol stations I think. They’re well expensive I’m too tight to buy ANYTHING from there

but I'm lazy and Morrisons is a 3 minute drive - I know this because of my music

We live close to an Asda but we shop at Sainsburys across town. It is quieter and a larger shop and when we were in the middle of the lockdown they were restricting numbers unlike Asda so we just felt a bit safer going there. Price wise it isn't too bad really.

We don't have a Tesco near us and the Morrisons is a bit naff. I dont like Aldi as it is way too busy and frantic for me, I like to take my time

I do my shop at Aldi as its cheapest then buy branded things like Heinz ketchup from B&M.

ASDA-this has the most choice of food but I don't like the shop
Sainsburys- my fab and doesn't have blaring music like the other big 3 stores
Morrisons- don't like, overpriced and not much choice.
Tesco- one of my favs but the clubcard prices are often the same price as the other shops when the item is on offer there.
Lidl-ok but don't like their meat
Aldi- fav for prices and most of their stuff is nice but you cant get everything there.

Yeah the club card prices are just a big con/conspiracy theory, they give off the illusion it’s a dead good offer but the same stuff is on offer in the other super markets

I’ve never been to a Sainsbury’s or Waitrose doesn’t sound like I’m missing out on much. I’ve bought Sainsbury’s clothes online and was really impressed with the quality though!

I did have a trillionaires chocolate and salted caramel muffin from Morrison’s earlier though and it was SENSATIONAL

I do our grocery shopping on Ocado, I can't stand going in store to do the big shop. We get our fruit/veg delivered separately from Riverford and we get our meats from the village butcher.

I then go to Aldi/Lidl for the bits I am influenced to buy from the thread on here.

Faggots, proper butchers ones not those awful Mr Brains ones are not crap tier!
