ASDA for me - don't know why people would want to go anywhere different. Fair enough it's a lot busier usually but it's a he'll of a lot cheaper and they have their 10% cheaper policy where they'll give you the difference if the compare website thinks you would have have paid less than another supermarket, and if ASDA aren't 10% cheaper they'll give you the money. They're also a lot friendlier there.

Mostly Asda or Tesco and Aldi's for some other 'offbeat' stuff that I like. They're the handiest for me.

Asda or Tesco, but Aldis is 2 mins away from me so if I only need bread or milk I go there.

Sainsbury's because it's the closest. I prefer Tesco/Asda though.

Tesco for convenience, it's a 5 minute walk from my house. Iceland to stock my freezer.

We go to Tesco because its the closest shop near us. Its actually insane though. There are about 5 of them within the same vicinity of our house. And they're building a Tesco Metro on the way to one of the bigger Tesco stores. :bored:

Sainsburys and Waitrose

I really like Waitrose, but I spend the whole time I'm in there moaning about how expensive everything is. Also, my local one is full of ridiculous, snobbish wives of equity traders and hedge fund managers, wandering round aimlessly with their Kath Kidston shopping bags and a couple of uncontrollable children called things like Angharad and Archie.

I kind of like Morrisons.

:joker: no more like Hester and Gabriel, I buy the bulk of my shop at Sainsburys but Waitrose have more of the herbs and spices and unusual ingredients, and as I like cooking, I tend to stock up my store cupboard there. Oh and I usually buy a nice treat from their cake counter while I'm there:

Hester and Gabriel... I'm going to be listening out for them.

I hate cooking. I can't be expected to be fabulous in every room in the house. "Pierce film lid and microwave on full power for five minues" is about my limit.

Waitrose cakes are the best.... They do an amazing and massive vanilla slice - typically though they call it a millefeuille, and I'm particularly fond of their ENORMOUS cupcakes.

I love preparing a meal when I get in from work, it relaxes me. I'm a bit of a cross between Nigella Lawson and Patsy Stone from Ab Fab:hugesmile:

Morrisons because it's really close, most of the stuff we buy from there seems better than every other supermarket too but my parents sometimes go to Sainsbury's to get certain things.

Tesco or Sainsbury's normally although we live near an Asda too. I love shopping in Walmart when I go to America, has to be my favorite supermarket. I know Asda is the UK's version of Walmart but I just prefer Walmart.

They are delish. Nothing to beat having super fresh Warburtons bread, buttered, and freshly cooked chicken sannies, little bit of mayo, black pepper, salt - and sipping a nice sweet cuppa.

Would kill for that right now. :(
