Dannyboy - Antrim has the closest Asda to Belfast? What's a mega Asda? Have you not heard of the Asdas at Kennedy Way, Shore Road, and Newtownards Road (Dundonald)?
Anyway, stuff costs more in the city centre. Rates are higher, and nothing grows in the city centre, so transport costs are higher...

Yes I know those stores exist but I want one of the mega stores in Belfast. You know how theres Tescos Extra. These bigger stores (like the one in Antrim) have a much bigger range of foods.

You're not at all fussy.

Well at least you're part of the way there with your search although, as is always in these matters, you finish up paying through the nose for it.

My search is nearly done. Theres one thing I long for which is an air pump for freezer bags. Lakeland used to sell it, but its been recently discontinued. I have been searching all over the internet for it as well. http://www.lakeland.co.uk/p14931/Lakeland-Airlock-Bags

Just to let folks know. I have decided to become a vegetarian so I now no longer need to worry about the quality of any meats that I would have bought. I think this is the greatest decision of my life and I wish I had become a vegetarian years ago.

It has the advantage of being allot cheaper to eat, but at the same time providing all the neccessary amino acids that a meat diet contains.

The best thing I love about it is I can buy years supply of foods, such as soya beans lentils etc. This will save me having to run to the shops all of the time.
