Good and bad buys from Netto (much like the equivalent Aldi and Lidl thread)

8.1K Posts


The 'Good and bad buys from Aldi and Lidl' thread has proved useful over the years, and convinced many doubters that whilst both are much cheaper than mainstream supermarkets the quality's every bit as good - if not better.
Around 13 stores across the north of England at the moment (it's a joint operation between the Danish Netto and Sainsbury's) but plans are to open more, to compete with Aldi, Lidl and the other supermarkets.
Having visited one or two, I'd say they're going to struggle. Downmarket on Aldi and Lidl (both of which started like this, but moved upmarket) but with apparently higher prices.
Maybe I'm missing something? Care to share the good and bad buys?

Those 'offers' don't look particularly good any way.

Trying to be an Aldi lookalike. Looks more like Kwicksave or Poundland.

How little I know.!!
Fruit and veg are OK - again good weekly offers; currently 69p for red pointed peppers, 5 oranges, cherry toms or potatoes.
I love the "buy me try me free" offers, chopped toms free with 37p tomato puree and hot choc free with 99p mini rolls this week.
Some brands are the same as Lidl at similar prices.
They sell my favourite Warburtons crumpets at 69p all the time - the other supermarkets fluctuate between 65p and 99p.
Their own brand Prosecco was lovely at just over a fiver, bottled beer is as cheap as anywhere else.
The only thing I wouldn't buy again was the frozen peas - they were floury, but the petit pois were fine!
went yesterday and although on this occasion I didn't spend much , I will go again. Thanx for posting , and starting this thread.
