    Tesco seemed to have stopped a lot of their value range in favour of these pseudo brand names - I'm assuming they are the same products, just more expensive than value - any views?

    My store has just got back in the Value washing up liquid after a long time without it. I take it its the one in the long thin bottle?

    So keep your eyes open for it as it can be got, ask them to stock it it works in my store.

    I don't mind the toilet roll - not exactly something I want to spend too much cash on given on what happens to it.

    I actually prefer Tesco's ketchup to Heinz - much tangier. However, I have to secretly put it into a Heinz bottle so DH will eat it! He doesn't notice the difference in taste but for some reason he wouldnt have the value ketchup when it was in its original bottle lol

    Thanks for that, always bought this but it's been gone for ages. It's good and so cheap. Another good Tesco Value product is their Anti-bacterial Handwash (also regular handwash) just 38p for a 500ml pump bottle. It's similar to Carex blue but about a third of the price and twice the amount. Although I notice this has been going out of stock recently as well. :(


    P.S. Forgot to add Value Shaving Foam great value, does the job!

    I'm surprised that frozen peas have made it onto the bad list, I just thought peas were peas?

    Bad: Mushrooms- too slimey, baked beans- they just don't taste like Heinz
    Good: Sandwich bags, chicken packet noodles, tinned spaghetti
