Booths is to M&S what M&S is to Netto. It's a whole level of snobbery higher than either Sainsbury's, Waitrose or M&S could ever aspire too.

They are near to me - Ilkley etc - very affluent area. Expensive and elite just for the sake of being. I've been once and would never return.

I have been in the one at Kirby Lonsdale - several times. That is because the nearest other supermarket used to be around 14 miles away from where my friend lives. They do stock a good range, for a smaller supermarket, but are grossly overpriced.

Good description. We have one here and the prices are :eek: I have only been in 3 times, all 3 times were desperate measures. Have to say though, it always seems busy
