    I've been there occasionally, it's off the M18 Junction 1, you follow the Bawtry road for a couple of hundred yards to the first roundabout then left and first left again. It's at the bottom on the right.

    It is a bit of a junk shop at first sight but if you don't mind out of date foods they have some great deals on frozen food and things like crisps and squash. There are a few things that are regular products but most of the frozen stuff is factory seconds or catering packs (had a good deal a few months ago on dominos pizza toppings 1kg @ 3 for £5 eg chopped smoked bacon and pepperoni)They often have someone cooking things off for you to taste and there is also a cheap veg stall.

    You should register by email before your first visit and the best days to go are Thursday to Saturday when they run the weekly offers - note they are closed on Sunday and Monday.

    They are very friendly people - it can be quite a good laugh shopping there (last time I was there you could get 20% discount by saying 'you look sexy' to the checkout lady:D).
  • Thanks for that, might be worth a look then :)
