That's right - vote with your feet! They can only get away with hiking up the prices because people keep going in there and paying it.
My solution is to budget more aggressively (but don't go without the things I need, like decent food) and consistently buy the cheaper brands or shop elsewhere. I find that I keep switching supermarkets to try and get things cheaper. Loyalty does not benefit the consumer - only the supermarket. Consumer Revenge! Bring it on !!

Yes, Consumer Revenge is good!

There's a lesson there, Barneysmom. Buying fruit/veg at the market is better for the local economy too - as well as keeping the supermarket's profits down. It never ceases to amaze me how rubbish supermarket's friut/veg is. It looks shabby, tastes bland, and usually only lasts a couple of day before going off.If you will the end, you must will the means.0

I was in Waitrose the other day and an assistant told me they'd stopped stocking the Cardini's dressing, maybe Tesco know this and are increasing their prices accordingly?0

Pedigree Gravy Bones are now £1.58 a box in Tesco :eek: They used to be just over the £1 mark - what's going on?! I'm going to have to ration them when I give them to the dog!0
