Morals and ethics from Supermarkets
Hi chaps, whilst I appreciate that this site is about saving money I read that the boss of Sainsburys is giving himself a big pay rise whilst paying his staff as little as possible. Makes me want to not by from his store and made me wonder, is there a table of good shops that respects workers rights, animal welfare, buying…

With all the talk of weights and measures today, possibly going imperial as well as metric, I've been thinking about greengrocers. They always used to sell by weight, but many now sell by the bowl. I feel that this must work heavily in favour of the greengrocers otherwise so many wouldn't have turned to this method. Has…

MSE James spotted this Co-op 'Hot Cross Bun Egg': I bought a Cadbury's Dairy Milk Hot Cross Bun bar from Poundland a few weeks ago (it was very tasty).

Where has all the Aunt Bessie's Chips gone?
Are there supply issues with Aunt Bessie's Homestyle oven chips at the moment? I've not been able to get any from either of my local Sainsbury's or Morrisons for a while now.

Asda multi buy ready meals gone?
I am just doing an Asda online shop and for the first time in years there are no multi buy discounts on ready meals. Is this something to do with the government cracking down on multi buy deals for "unhealthy" food? This will raise my shopping bill quite a bit.
