Tesco Everyday value - brief reviews

Raksha

Avoid the sliced white bread, especially if you don't plan on using it straight away - it's soggy and goes mouldy very quickly

Was going to buy the value egg sandwich until I saw how much fat was in a packet. 34g I think it was

Tinned tomatoes are pretty good from the value range, I'm also a fellow advocate of the squash and "fresh" (read from concentrate) apple and orange juice.
Both tinned tuna and tinned sweetcord have been fine as have the kidney beans.

Dried pasta

Also the crunchy peanut butter- very rich flavour
Strawberry Jam- bit thin and no fruit, but okay for baking or on toast

Tried the value bars of soap couple of months ago and its still by the sink! ie. does not lather or dissipate just slips out of your hands, in fact I think its indestructable.
Did use the baby shampoo for liquid soap but thought is was about 9p, looked for some more and is it 46p or something now? hence buying the bars. Mistake:eek:

I just wanted to mention that it may be worth stocking up on the value (or basics or any other economy range) right now as the Christmas stuff is starting to arrive, once it hits the 6 weeks 'till Xmas mark most if not all the value range will appear to vanish and all the over priced Christmas products will be put in its place. Happens every year and always takes people aback.

You can still get the value baby shampoo in Morissons at 9p..HTH.
