Default When you go food shopping...

Do you do it all in one place or visit different supermarkets throughout the week?

The majority of it in one supermarket but we go to a separate fish shop and sometimes butcher but not always sometimes we just get the meat at the supermarket

weekly shop in ASDA and then stop off on the way home any time we've run out of anything, usually in the co-op down the road or a tesco garage or something

For some reason the supermarkets keep sending me vouchers..had 2x Ł20 ones in the last 2 weeks from Sainsburys...no doubt Tesco will do something similar soon..I swear they all know exactly what I spend with their competitors

I always go through that site everytime, if you select something and there is a cheaper alternative it will tell you.

Do a weekly or fortnightly big shop, depends on who is busy. But if we need milk or bread then we still have Morrisons over the road anyway, so will pop over for bits and stuff that we might need for dinner.

I go to the freezer stores, Iceland, Farmfoods and The freezer bit in Morrisons once a month to fill our 2 freezers then I go to other supermarkets weekly or more if I need some essentials like bread/milk etc.

For meats and cold meats I go to the butchers.

I mostly go to Morrisons but will go into Aldi, Tesco and Co-op too it just depends which one i'm near tbh.

We only have a village shop no supermarkets or anything like that so it's easier for us to buy in bulk apart from the essentials like I mentioned above.

Go to one of the big supermarkets once a week and might go into Lidl to pick up a few bits and pieces and also go to the spar during the week too for bits and pieces

I don't eat so never need to do big shop. Just get stuff like bread and milk from bottom shop each day Eating is not a hobby for me, it's just an inconvenience I have to do to maintain my existence

I sometimes get stuff in other supermarkets but there's not many around so 95% of the time it's Tesco. I go near daily sometimes because we have no car for a big shop so we just go up when we need something, it's only a 5 minute walk away so tis all good.

..I generally go to the supermarket once a week to get store cupboard type stuff..I buy my meat from a farm shop and vegetables/fruit etc from the market because they're really fresh and mostly organic and bread from the village bakery....
