'Finest' is a marketing badge. It's vague as to what it actually represents - there's no definition that says you're necessarily getting anything better than the normal own-brand products. (Apart from those cases where you can tell from the ingredients - eg % meat in sausages).
So just as with Value ranges, the only way is to compare normal brands and Finest and see what is actually worth paying extra for and what isn't. Whether it's tagged as 'Finest' or not is really irrelevant.
Both have much better ranges and Marks and Sparks has some great deals on especially at the moment.
So I won't be biting at this offer.;)
