Just looked at the shopping test film to save on own brands and you reccomend the basics range, this is a mistake. If you go into supermarket , Sainsbury is particulary bad at this , and look at "basics" such as broccoli you can buy a £1.00 bag of poor quality broccoli ( mostly stalk and skinny florets) However if you weigh it you are actualy getting 62p worth of goods , a massive 38p difference ! . I have had numerous discussion in store about this underhand sneaky rip off and their excuse is that it is packed ! I did point out that that they give free vege bags away and then big orange packing bags for free at checkout. The basics range are aimed at the poor . I find it morally repugnant that they do this .
