Is it the top 5? From Sainsburys to aldi? I like to do mine in different shops but I mostly do my shopping at sainsburys. I also support my local corner shop as well  |

I usually shop at Lidl, but I found that their social distancing measures were a bit crap at my local store, so I've been shopping at Sainsbury's mostly. I managed to get a delivery slot with Iceland though, so I've done my big shop there this month |

For the past 25 odd years I have shopped at Morrisons, Like their market place layout, Fresh Meat,Fish Fruit & Veg, very good Deli counter,Bread made and baked in store.
Also cheapest Diesel in the area. |

Sainsbury's at the moment because they seem to be the best at limiting customers to a sensible number. Otherwise ALDI/LIDL/Waitrose/Tesco/ASDA depending on where I am that day and what I need to buy. |

I bulk buy a lot of the staple foods (rice, pasta, potatoes, meat, tinned tomatoes, veg oil etc) at Costco, then buy fresh produce and specialist food at the small local shops. |

Yes I have also noticed that the fifferent shops have different distacing measures at place. |

Pre-covid I would vary which shop I went to week by week. I work for a food manufacturer so I was interested in the displays, promotions, what looked shopped and what wasn't moving.
Now I stick to my local Morrison's. It's not very big, which means it doesn't get very busy. After 8pm there's never a queue, there are few people in the store and although the shelves are less well stocked than they would be earlier in the day it feels a more comfortable experience. |

"Marks n Sparks ofcourse   "
I work practically next door to one and if I could afford to, I’d buy my food from there.
So much better quality and choice.
Sainsbury’s are bloody shit. |

I think everyone should think about boycotting certain "corner shops" once this is all over. Personal experience in my local area where the cheeky twats decided it was OK to charge £25 for a 6 pack of toilet roll then double the price of all of their tobacco products on sale, £15 for a small bottle of hand sanitizer too. Taking advantage of people in these times is a complete piss take. |

I used to be an asda guy but i never see them since i moved to manc. Tesco or amazon pantry these days. I've spent far too much on uber eats and at the shop since all this stuff started. I've tried to queue up for tesco but i live on my own and fuck queuing a hour just to get a bag or twos worth of shopping. |

We shop weekly at Lidl for majority of our food shopping, then buy certain items at Asda once or twice a month.
Once a month we buy household cleaning products, squash etc from Home Bargains. |

M&S, in these troubled times the stores usually surprisingly empty, staff are really on top of distancing and are always cleaning. Funny how a trip to the supermarket is something to look forward to now! |

The third being Lidl, because the most uncivilised people shop in Lidl.
