I don't agree.Much cheaper than the loose ones

Yes they aren't they? Are they 99p for M (500g) therefore - actually that's £1.98/kg, as opposed to £1.89/kg on the loose ones? So, the loose (vs M) are cheaper.

Even then I had 750g bags in Aldi last year go down to "half price" 74p(?). And then, at the end of the day, the 74p "half price" bags were reduced to a further half. Half of half price! 37p or thereabouts for 750g! Now making my guide price on 500g packs as 24p.
:eek::eek:The major supermarkets are so expensive.

As these may be whoopsied to much cheaper, I wouldn't even bother with vs 99p on 500g bags. And the loose are only there as being a filler item for pay a few pence and M technically cheaper (yes, they did reappear in my stores on Wednesday!:D:rotfl:).

I happened to be reading about supermarket fruit & veg. earlier today, when I googled for "Sainsbury's are so expensive". (In preparation for my own shop where I'm going to have to shop there soon, to spend Nectars.):rotfl:

May be a little out of date, but that won't stop me:D:

And someone made a post at the end of the comments and here is the website they produced: http://myyearoflivingvintagely.com

They were stung for some expensive booze during the year:
http://myyearoflivingvintagely.com/2012/08/our-first-failing/
They managed to find a wine box and some cans of lager, stored them in the fridge at home. Then promptly forgot them on their three-hour each way journey out. So, as a desperate last resort they stopped at a T supermarket - and promptly got stung very heavily it seems! Wine box in the supermarket and lots of (what appeared to look like) "cut-price" lager. However, the fridge in the campervan failed to work. So, it all went home with them and appears thereafter to have been sitting in their fridge, staring at them, unused! A supermarket waste of money possibly! Shouldda stuck with just what they bought elsewhere and never have fallen for the supermarket at all:(.

http://myyearoflivingvintagely.com/2013/03/debunking-the-supermarkets-are-cheaper-fallacy/
After the year, they went back to shopping in the supermarkets, for the loss leaders, so that they would save even more per month. As always with the supermarkets, how wrong they were again!! They spent much more in the first month than they did in any month of their abstinence year. Every time they pop out for some small shopping, they come back having spent £60! Would be hard pushed to spend that on the high street.

I also read [red] somewhere, possibly here, that when people do some shopping every day, they end up spending more! Obviously not following the Elite method are they? It's actually best to avoid doing any big weekly shop at all, and instead spending as little as possible on small shops that each have glitches and give more back.

There's actually something there entitled "The trouble with sprouts", but I've not read what it is.

I think we need to start growing our own sprouts!
