@hazl,

"If I want a quality long-lasting classic coat I will spend good money on it and it pays off.
If I want some down to earth jeans for knocking around the house then there is no point in paying shed-loads in my opinion.
I don't give into consumerism just for it's own sake."

Second that. Completely agree.

However this is an investment and it doesn't really matter what I do but more what the general trend is for retail and how people in general shop.

My daughter gets some sweet little things for her little one from Sainsbuy's I must agree but I have been very happy with the odd fashion item from Tesco just to back things up.

Sainsbury's TU clothing is far better quality then either Tesco's FF or Asda's George which I wouldn't touch either of with a barge pole as both may be cheap however both are very poor quality and therefore very poor value for money.

Buying either Tesco's FF or Asda's George may as well buy either Primark or Pepco from the pound shop.

I got some jeans in there costing next to nothing!

I'm not proud.

[nathdani] 15/3/2019 12:59

logan you really are airhead

[loganair] 15/3/2019 12:54

Absolute rubbish - Tesco's is becoming very expensive over the past couple of years and is by far the most expensive of the so called big 4.

[wbecki] 15/3/2019 12:18

@1carus

Sainsbury definitely the most expensive of the Big 4.

Asda
Morrisons/Tescos
Sbry
Waitrose


In order of expensiveness imo.

[1carus] 15/3/2019 11:52

We occasionally try sainsburys, adds about 15 quid on my £100 pound shop over tescos. Morrisons also more expensive on a visit last week.

[filmster] 14/3/2019 21:58

Should make for good profits this year then 😁

[pvee] 14/3/2019 21:37

Cheapest = less profits though

[nathdani] 14/3/2019 11:00

As for SBRY being the cheapest I will take that with a pinch of salt.

[nathdani] 14/3/2019 10:59

superdrug should be your firstport of call imo.

Which on-line supermarket was cheapest in February 2019?


At nearly £9 cheaper than its next cheapest rival for a basket of branded groceries, our pricing comparison shows that Sainsbury’s was the best supermarket for value in February 2019. A basket of 69 popular items cost an average of £131.73.

Morrisons and Asda took second and third place, with a basket of the same branded groceries at each costing £140.51 and £143.50 respectively.

Buying the basket of identical items at online-only Ocado cost a whopping £24.07 more than Sainsbury’s in February, running up a bill of £155.80. Waitrose was the second-most expensive for our selection of groceries, which would have cost £154.36.

How cheap is Tesco?

Tesco is the UK’s largest retailer, and always used to be considered good value against its rivals. In our latest supermarket survey though, it was awarded just two stars for value for money by Which? members. In our annual price analysis to find out which supermarket was the cheapest in 2018, Tesco came in fourth behind Morrisons, Asda and Sainsbury’s. It continued to be in fourth place in terms of cost in January, and is fourth again in February with a basket cost of £149.73.

Towards the end of 2018, Tesco renewed its focus on value for money. It started to promote the ‘Exclusively at Tesco’ range with an emphasis on a low price basket of shopping, designed to compete with Aldi and Lidl. In another move to compete with the German discounters, it launched its own discount store, Jacks. Keep up with our monthly basket analysis to see if these moves start to pay off.



As I posted several times, I'm finding Tesco's is becoming an expensive supermarket to shop in. For non-food items often Boots and Superdrug are cheaper than Tesco.

Talking about disruption and what firms do about it.

Phil, every dog has his day. Jefferies say £2.75. Maybe after BREXIT!

Agree Alphorn the treatment of animals is terribly important.
The issue of foie gras is appalling.
There was a petition to Government but didn't get many signatures, in this Nation of supposed animal lovers!"

I agree.

Assume Alphorn is anti Halal therefore?
