I agree with you about the cheapness of the world food aisles, but personally go to the Asian supermarket for all my pulses, fruit n veg and even massive packs of loo rolls for next to nothing:j:j"You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf"

I've been doing this too in a very large branch of Mr Ts in Glasgow, the tinned tomatoes are 4 for £1 and the rice noodles are really cheap compared to sharwoods, etc.
The best find for me so far has been the chilli dipping sauce - about half the price of that on the 'normal' shelves.0 -
as with all items it is case of know your prices and in stores that have these isles check normal and these isles too.I am responsible me, myself and I alone I am not the keeper others thoughts and words.0
