I really would love to know what your favourite supermarket is why it's your favourite?
Mine is Waitrose or Sainsbury's. Because they have brilliant veggie alternatives for BBQs xx |

Co-Op, because they have loads of small ex-pub sized shops near me that are open at good hours, and they are far more ethical than the big supermarkets, treat staff better, have better local community connections etc. |

Lidl. As non-drivers it's only a 15 minute walk. I go once a week with my old lady shopping trolley and pick up the tins and bags of things we need. Plus their bakery is good. Most meat, fruit & veg comes from the butcher's and the market. |

Oh yeah.. We have a M&S food hall too.. But don't tend to go in there, unless it's for one of the meal deals.. I'm a sucker for reduced stuff, so always look out for the sticker.. Love a good bargain! |

I have far too much money sloshing around so when I am not sending my personal shopper down to Fortnum & Mason or Harrods and I need something in a hurry and dont have time to peruse all the local independent shops such as the greengrocers or butchers, I will occasionally slum it with the commoners and riffraff in M&S or Waitrose. |

Lidl, Tesco or Aldi. There is a Waitrose nearby, but a pain to park at. Think I’ve only been there twice. Nearest sainsburys is ove 10 miles away. No idea on Asda.
Even Morrisons is a trek away. Shame as like their breakfasts on a sunday |

Same here plus independents wherever possible. Had the misfortune to shop in Sainsbury while staying away and they were more expensive and lower on quality. |

I use independent butchers, green grocer and bakery for the main things and will use Morrisons for everything else as it's right opposite work and the staff are just so friendly there |

I live very close to a Co op and find it cheap, the only reason i go to Tesco is because they have a bigger range of food. |
