    I shop at Sainsburys all the time but it's just for the pure convenience as it is just up the road for me.

    I don't really have anything else to compare it to I'm afraid, sorry, I haven't really answered your question:o

    I love shopping at Sainsbury's but only now do it as a 'treat' shop as I find it much more expensive than Tesco, which, for me, is then more expensive than Asda.

    Have you tried using mysupermarket.com beanie? You can fill a basket with your shopping from your normal supermarket and it will match and compare prices. If you shop online, it can access your online accounts and take stuff from your Favourites and then do the same.

    Anyone rent wii games online? I've found 2 companies - gametart or swapgame. I know Lovefilm do games but I've exhausted their free offers and it's nearly £10 per month.

    Most of their stuff is quite expensive but I personally think their Basics range is actually cheaper than the value ranges of most other supermarkets. Then again, I only shop there because we have two supermarkets in Bath (Sainsbury's and Morrisons) and Morrisons is on the other side of town.

    My local sainsburys is rubbish. Things go off fast and it is expensive. However, if I order on-line , it comes from a different store and is at least value for money. Asda is better value though.

    I have a local Sainsburys and Waitrose,if I drive another couple of miles there is also a Tesco n Asda. Waitrose=crucifyingly expensive, but good quality. Sainsburys,more expensive than Tesco, but closer, quality fine. Tesco=great, further to drive, but good quality and cheaper than Sainsburys,Asda? Cheap as chips but quality to match. Fresh stuff has really short sell by dates.So its either Sainsbury or Tesco for me..
    Debt-free...and staying that way...

    I am sitting outside in a lovely garden on a warm summer's evening. And yet I feel stupid for doing this as I am alone. :confused:

    Hi Bookie, I was home alone in the garden earlier. Well, an untidy yard really.
