Tesco Value Mince - frozen - very very bad!
My Rottweiler loves it, defrosted and raw with his kibble
:D;)
but in my opinion it is certainly not fit for human consumption and how it passes as 'food' is way beyond me
Tesco Value Teabags - good/okay
I personally don't like my tea strong like builders brew and Tetley et al usually produce a cup like that unless I just dunk the tbag (which is a waste of money IMO), so these teabags produce just the right strength for me at 27p for 80, if you want a strong cup just leave the teabag in you cup to 'brew' a while longer.DTD - Doing Tesco Daily - while I still have vouchers!0 -

The cola is disgusting but going up a level to own-brand the 56p Tesco Zero soda is good. Freeway from Lidl is even better.0

Tesco Value White Chocolate and Raspberry cereal bars are very nice. 76p for 6 currently.0

loo roll (Kids are andrex puppies and it doesn't block loo)
actually in a bid to safe money I buy as much value as I can. Meat is from waitrose and always reduced. Can no longer afford on label stuff, if its not reduced or value then we don't have it!!
