Who shops at several supermarkets?

I do my basket/trolley load on mysupermarket so I can look at all the deals etc for what we are needing for the week. I do a meal planner and try not to stock up on too many well placed bargains unless I need them.
I have sainsburys, tesco and asda within 10mins of our house. Also aldi and lidl arent too far either! I prefer sainsburys meat but I find tesco and asda better for other deals.
We do switch where we go almost on a weekly basis!Kyle 03.04.04

I do my main shop at Tesco, for the things I either cannot get elsewhere or are cheaper. During the week I also visit Lidl most days (between work and home) for bread/milk/peanut butter/coffee etc, I visit Aldi's at the weekend (still in village but doesn't open till 9, Lidl opens at 8), Sainsbury once or twice a week for Tea Bags and other things, Asda for offers and value marge etc. I haven't worked out how much I save, but I must save a fair bit taking advantage of all their offers!What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare0

We go to sainsburys 1 week then tesco the next and we take the plastic for recycling and we pop into morrisons say once a week and asda once a month0

You mean go round them all in one trip to get the best prices? I don't really see how you could keep up with all the prices and offers. How about doing a monthly shop at Morrisons for frozen and cupboard items, then somewhere else weekly for the fresh items?
We usually use Tesco but like to go to others sometimes for a change.0 -
Last week I did, shopping for Christmas bargains.
I also ended up with so much whoopsied veg that I had to spend half the weekend cooking it, and there isn't room in the freezer for so much as a mince pie. Help!import this0 -
On Friday night I check up on Morrisons, Sainsburys & Tesco websites to see what offers they have on. (they are all within a few milesof me).
Last week I went to Morrisons first they had veg @ 30p, heinz beans @ £1.20 (I think) and Pg tips , then Sainsburys had the Persil Wash Powder on offer, then Tesco for the rest..
At each supermarket I always have a look about for other offers and reduced stuff, Although tesco is the best for reduced..I got around £35 worth of food for £5, and a few weeks ago @ Morrisons I got £56 worth of Fish for £20
I also go to Aldi sometimes if I have time. Shopping around is definately worth it IMHO0 -
We shop at morrisons, asda, aldi, lidl, tesco and greengrocers depending on who has the best offers. I check the aldi and lidl websites to see what fresh fruit and veg offers they have on, then look in the freezer and cupboards to see what meals can be made, then I'll check my supermarket to see who has what offers and base the shopping list round that, we get our fresh meat from morrisons and most of our basics from asda. It's the best way we can keep within our budget each week, all are within walking distance or a short bus ride away, so not a massive hardship splitting the shopping up that way.*wonders when they will make dressing gowns acceptable day wear?*No new toiletries challenge - use up the stash first!NSD Jan 2/150
