Where do you get your food shopping from?
 
When Im at my mums in London she gives me a £25 budget a week and its normally at M&S as thats the closest big store, we do have a small Tesco literally round the corner but thats petrol station and I dont like Tesco that much anymore, I use to like them! Also Waitrose a lot, my mum loves them.

And Ocado quite often!

I like M&S new food range, they do like mozzarella sticks, Mac and Cheese bites and ham and cheese toasties! Its also good as there sweet range isn't huge which means I dont get much chocolate!

When I'm at my dads its Asda and thats the really big one in Grantham, its literally huge! I really like it but theres so much nice stuff and I would get carried away! Like there was so many chocolate stuff I've never seen before from big brands!

Where do you shop? :)

Tesco if I do actual shopping

Sainsburys if online, as you can sign up with a new email each time and get 15 quid off a 70 quid shop :laugh: I don't count it as stealing or anything as its their own systems that are dumb as **** (eg all details are exactly the same, but a new email gives the discount again...), and the delivery drivers laugh when they come all the time for a 'new customer' :D

Aldi wherever poss. I get basics like milk and bread from the Spar as I am in there daily.

basically this really! North London is basically just M&S, Waitrose and Tesco.

Shaun 04-07-2015 06:24 PM

If it's online: ASDA.
If I'm out, anywhere tbh. Usually ASDA, Sainsburys or the Co-Op though.

LukeB 04-07-2015 06:25 PM

Sainbury's and Asda

I do my food shopping at Tesco's every Friday. However, I buy my fruit and vegetables from street markets, as they're cheaper and much more fresh than the ones from supermarkets.

However, if I'm out and about and I'm hungry, I will pop to whichever one is closest and grab something to eat from there. M&S has some great stuff. But I don't go there much.

Jason. 04-07-2015 07:14 PM

I live in North-West London, and I've literally never seen a local Morrison's branch nor ever been to one. I think the closest one to me is in Camden or something, which is about 30 minutes away from where I live.

There's quite a few Sainsbury's around me. One in Golders Green, and a bigger branch in West Hendon. There's also an Asda branch in Colindale (5 minute drive from Sainsburys). But all those three, despite being quite close to me are still a long way when I have a big Tesco branch about a 5 minute drive from where I live.

Oh yeah, I forgot you also live in North London. Did you hear the thunderstorms last night?

JoshBB 04-07-2015 07:22 PM

My parents usually buy from Morrisons because it's local. For big shopping, usually tesco or asda.

no lol, I was at my dads which is in east midlands, yeah had lightning and thunder here.

With Morsions its really odd theres like 2 super small ones in enfield town within the space of 200m, don't live far from enfield town but more nearer Plamers Green and Southgate/hampsted.

I guess maybe there seeing what the market is like for them in London (testing) but its odd.

I really like Morisions, it's where my dad use to shop in town but the car park is very small and its in a shopping centre although its a big one! Great stuff! But the Asda is huge and car park is massive.
