It is like saying Ikea have stopped selling sideboards for £90. The nearest equivalent is Cotswold Company. A 1,000% Increase ! An outrage!
Just buy dried pasta instead.

Fair enough that is quite far to walk and also I just did a quick Google and there forums talking about the disappearing value stuff way back from the switch over from blue and white to Stockwell's etc. So this is not new news. Sorry pet, time to find a new thing.
People should learn to shop smart, not cheap. She is helping no one with all this.
Zoopla estimates can be utter bollocks. You can claim property as your own and update it with x amount of refurbishment equalling a y increase in value which then affects the whole postcodes average. Hate zoopla with a passionTry Zooplas estimate
How is taking it upon yourself to keep faded supermarket receipts and shouting about it on Twitter a job? Who is this job benefiting? Does Jack know that supermarkets employ actual pricing analysts? It’s not some big conspiracy against the poor FFS.
Jack is one step away from 'Wake up sheeple', conspiracy theorists.
Oooh make it make sense! Jack you've forgotten your lie, you humpty. You make 2 trips because you know the exact minute your yellow stickers are available. It's nothing to do with the weight of your backpack.
If you want someone to give you a trolley, can you just ask for it?
Why doesn't she pick a day during the week and hit the high street get some veg from the grocers, meat from the butcher's and etc. That's how I shop. It doesnt take all that long either she could take a long lunch from her "work" and do it then.
I do Tesco's too, but I get most of my meat from the butcher and veg from the green grocers.

I would imagine a Code 3* is announced over the tannoy.
*Stand by, well known grifter, con artist and poor person is in the building. Hide all yellow stickers and collect shin pads from security. Has been know to throw herself on the floor and claw and howl into the abyss. If this occurs please thoroughly sanitise area upon completion of tantrum but only when it is safe to do so.
Why the duck should the staff in ASDA have to 'acknowledge' what she's doing, surely they have enough on their plates to indulge a z-lister who's pretending to campaign whilst doing (part of) her weekly shop?? It reeks of "DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM??" except it's closer to "do they KNOW who you ARE!?" and of all Jack's weird follower comments (yes Stuart, I'm looking at you) this is by far the weirdest. It's not like bleeping George Clooney wandered in, Jack is no more famous than my nephew, who once played the recorder in his school assembly.
Wish she would just buy a fking trolley, constant arsing about 2 trips is really annoying, it’s not like she’s not in to get it delivered
I'm so over this £20 bollocks. Trekking off to asda like St Jack of the Poors. No one bleeping asked you to! It's not like she's even making anything desirable with the food she buys - brown slop, green slop, pink slop - take your pick. What a waste of time.
Hope she has been monitoring price rises in the Groucho also! It's a conspiracy to rob the rich!

Even if she got a trolley she'd still go twice - she explained it a couple of weeks ago, she likes to get there before all her normal stuff sells out
and then later, after reductions, specifically to raid the yellow sticker fridge.Didn't she say that right back at the beginning? That she would visit her local greengrocer?
#shoplocal Jack, you can get good quality and good value.
It's a lot bigger than the price of the tins etc in the supermarkets. To keep the prices down many people growing packing and distribution and selling are being underpaid. Tinned tomatoes from southern Europe for example.
Answering myself- found it. And its modern slavery today. Or rather anti. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/jun/20/tomatoes-italy-mafia-migrant-labour-modern-slavery
Just to let you guys know I went to the shop today. The lady at the till said hello. Am I famous yet?
The shop local and the why she goes to Asda twice is the reason we need a 'Fact Check On A Bootstrap' Twitter page.
