Morrison's and Waitrose, as a rule. I only shop in Waitrose because it's either that or Somerfield in Monmouth, and the quality of the meat in Somerfield is not good.

All of them. Tescos less and less these days; quality of food is not as good as it could be given their bulk buy ability and their bakery is shite where we live. Unless you want to put a picture on a cake.

ANYWHERE APART FROM FARMFOODS

Have you seen the crap in there? I've bought milk from there once, I had to convince myself that the cow that produced the milk didn't eat the farmfoods own branded products......still thought it tasted funny, but probably mind over matter.

I get a proportion of my salary paid in John Lewis vouchers in a salary sacrifice scheme so do the bulk in Waitrose. Day to day extras and treats/ready meals will be from M&S. Once a month or so will do a major shop in Costco to stock up on nappies and wipes, stuff for the freezer, tins/cans, cooking oils, alcohol, household stuff (loo roll, kitchen wipes, tissues etc.), cleaning supplies and so on.

Went to ASDA last week and was quite impressed with how cheap it was and the general good quality of the food in there. Use Tesco to stock up on food for the office, cereal, milk, fruit, snacks etc.

Have been to Morrisons but was appalled at the kind of people in there and the overall experience was horrific, frustrating and intimidating. Never been to an Aldo/Netto etc.

Tescos or Sainsburys for food, (sometimes Lidl, sometimes Aldi) Waitrose for fuel and the occasional ready meal.

Bit spoilt where we live as we have all the major supermarkets within a 2 mile radius and treat Tescos like the corner shop as it is only a 5 minute walk.

Fruit and veg from the market on Saturday, dried goods from whichever supermarket is more convenient (usually Plus cos I can freewheel down the hill to get there), meat from the butcher or, preferably, the eco butcher on the Leusderweg.
