How does mysupermarket.com work?

jimbugalee

I had a quick look on the site and forums but couldn't find anywhere which explained how mysupermarket.com worked.

I usually do my online shop at Tescos.

Any help/advice appreciated!

I'm not sure how it works behind the scenes if that's what your asking, but it imports and exports information from/to tesco/asda etc as far as I can tell. You can import your favourites from tesco and once you've done your shopping it sends you to the normal tesco website to put in card details etc.

ooooh demo was good thank you!!!

I might give that a go this week and see how I get on. I was debating swapping to Asda so I'll be able to see whether it is cheaper.

On the Tesco website I tend to shop from the half price offers and pick cheaper alternatives anyway so we'll see if this works out better.

Cool .... looking forward to it! Might even do my weekly shop now which will be 4 days early lol

Also once you select an item you can click on a different supermarket (tab at the top) to see if there is a price difference between the supermarkets.

Remember if you use the offers it comes out skewed because the supermarkets have different offers. So for a true comparison you would have to see how much it would cost without any offers.

if you are a member of i points, access my supermarket through them and get ipoints as well as your tesco/nectar points!

I noticed yesterday that Mysupermarket had a pretty misleading error, which makes me think it could have others:

If you search on Prawn Curry at Tesco on Mysupermarket, you get:
£1.07 any 5 FOR £4.00 (26.8p / 20p / 100g) Tesco Finest Prawn Curry with Rice (400g) with the following appealing picture:



However, in reality, you are buying Tesco Prawn Curry With Rice 400g:

I find it a difficult site too.

If you want to compare ALL prices, you have to look at each of the four tabs???
