A comparison on a typical Christmas shop would have been handy, wouldn't it?

Surely people don't go to one supermarket for their carrots, then pop to another for the stuffing, and a third for the mince pies...do they?

I've just got a bargain on the veg in tesco. 2.5kg of potatoes 49p, as well as a bag of carrots and parsnips for 49p.

For the rest I have kept an eye out over the past couple of weeks to see what was on offer when I went. Got a large pack of Paxo for a pound, yorkshire puddings for a pound (although I am also going to attempt to make them, but they are extra/back up) as well as Bisto for £1.
