I get Morrisons delivered. I have created a large saved list of everything I usually need. I drop it into my trolley and delete any items I don’t want this time and add any extras. I was thinking of changing to Sainsburys but I couldn’t see how to create a list before shopping. Does anyone know if this is possible?

With Sainsbury's you can't make your own list.  The first time you shop, you just need to find items and add to the trolley.  Once you've had a delivery, the items you've bought will appear in the Favourites tab and you can easily add them to your trolley for the next delivery.  It ranks the Favourites based on how many times you've bought them (with a bias towards items you bought recently), so over time it will create a similar list to the one you have with Morrisons.

Another tip (though this may not be relevant to you) - if you have shopped with Sainsbury's in-store, when you add your Nectar card to your account it will add the things you normally buy to Favourites - handy for your first online shop.

Thanks for taking the time to help, Pumpkin!
 I think that I prefer the Morrisons method where I have more control and can have multiple lists E.g. an Extra Extravagant Treats When Needed - list. 

Though, in spite of being more expensive, Sainsbury’s does have a wider choice and possibly better quality Own Brand stuff.
