Three rather strange posts, now

Could one of you please explain what you're havering about? Are you really all very frugal, sensible people who never spend £20 in a supermarket for a week's food and alcohol? Or are you claiming that Aldi is magically different and you would not spend £40 for a fortnight's shopping there but would spend that much elsewhere?

I think you mean the latter but that requires explanation.

The only strange thing about this thread is your own comments. You seem unable to accept others may have different spending habits to your own. "We" can mean two people. And not everyone shops fortnightly.

I already acknowledged the meaning of 'we' in post #10. I am not sure what is strange about my enquiry. My readings of the three posters is that you are not saying that you never spend £40 in a supermarket. This may be incorrect. If, like me, you never spend £40 then fair enough - that is the information I wanted. But I read that the three of you would not spend £40 only in Aldi but you would spend it (in one go) in other shops. If any of you are in that position then I think it would be nice to explain why as it makes no sense to me.

I don't see many people posting they can't get 5p off their petrol because they never spend £50 in a supermarket.

well I never spend £50.00 in a supermarket I doubt I spend £20.00 in one go,but then I live alone and am fairly frugal with my shopping.I don't buy alcahol so that cuts the bill down a bit I suppose.My normal shop is around £12-15 per week for all of my shopping so 5p of a litre of diesel would be nice but as I only fill the tank up once a month I can usually get it at morrisons in Sittingbourne which gives me points towards a £5.00 voucher around once evry three months.Plus the diesel is cheaper there than in MrTs or sainsbobs.My DD and son-in-law get money off coupons for petrol but then they have 4 boys to feed so their shopping bill is a lot higher than mine
