Which Supermarket is Closest to your Primary Residence?
Comments

Depends which direction. Approx 20 miles to the nearest ones in three directions it's Booths and the fourth has more choice Asda, Morrisons, Aldi or another booths.
Local villages have spar, co-op and Londis. But tend to use local butchers, baker and green grocer. With a monthly top up delivery from tesco - which is cheaper then driving to the store.The futures bright the future is Ginger0 -

Supervalu is our nearest supermarket, with petrol station attached.
We don't have Asian corner shops here.
I should have added: a strange difference I find between GB petrol station supermarkets and Northern Irish ones. In GB you buy as little as possible in the shop because everything is so expensive. In Northern Ireland the filling station supermarket is one of the cheapest places to do a full weekly shop.

Pretty much the same distance between Morrisons, Aldi and Lidl.
I shop is Aldi mostly and then pass the other 2 and go a bit further to Asda and an independant freezer shop.Have my first business premises (+4th business) 01/11/2017

Closest here is Sainsbury, then Tesco.
Waitrose is overrated IMO.
We have no Booths, Morrisons or Waitrose - no Greggs the Bakers either. We have plenty of home brands though like Supervalu, Centra, Mace and of course Dunnes (the Irish Marks and Spencer).0 -
A small Coop at the opposite end of the village - about a mile......a small corner shop about a half a mile.
Smallish Tesco and Sainsburys, Aldi and a Lidl all about 10 miles away.....nearest Asda 20 miles.....nearest Waitrose 20 miles in the opposite direction.0 -

Think Waitrose pricing/quality and ambiance but a peg or two down."If you act like an illiterate man, your learning will never stop... Being uneducated, you have no fear of the future.".....

Nothing within walking or more accurately, carrying distance, except for an over priced garage shop.
Everything else within 10 mins car or 25 mins push bike except Waitrose.
Iceland > M&S > Asda > Tesco > Lidl > Aldi > FarmFoods > Morrisons > Sainsbury >>>>> Waitrose.
Says it all really.
Hey ho, I have just discovered that there is a Co oP only 1.66 miles away, some 5 minutes walk from ASDA. - I have only lived here 40 years but perhaps the Co-oP is relatively new?.
It is intertesting to see that way that joint tock capitalism is being given a run for its money, my log term family capitalism ( from Germany ) & a workers involvement store, rather than a theoretical Co-oP - Rochdale style ?!? [I must confess I used to get my milk delivered from the Co-oP and appreciated the pair of socks I earned every six months by way of divi.]0 -
If I drive to my nearest town I pass waitrose first, then Iceland, then lidl.0

Morrisons, Co-op, Iceland, Tesco Metro and Aldi are all about equal walking distance from where I live.0
