Thats just what I was going to say, as I was reading the last few posts.
Just about anything apart from the meat.0 -
i buy things like flour, chopped toms, tin foil, cling film, dish clothes, bleach, tinned peaches, kidney beans, mushy peas.
i don't touch the value meat from tesco. if i do have to buy value meat then i buy from sainsburys.
i find store cupboard essentials don't vary too much from store to store in the value/basic range. i dont' shop that much in tescos now, i'm more morrisons, sainsburys and M&S.0 -
We use value mince and value fresh chicken breast. Weve never had a problem with them. We dont like sainsbury value mince.
Have recently discovered value jaffa cakes - yummy!Mum, wife and dinnerlady!0 -
i have to say i think value jaffa cakes are nicer than dearer brands.0
