Hi All Well I always do my main shop at Asds as hubby prefers it. Do go to Tesco every now and then, though mainly for browsing. Use our new Morrisons for fresh pizza once in a while but thats all - it is an awful place to shop in and the fruit and veg quality is the worst ive ever seen. The staff there are not allowed to talk to each other during their shifts and a friend had a nervous breakdown due to the work pressure put on her, and had to leave (and she isnt the meek n mild type either). I lived in Rugby Warwickshire for a while and used to shop at the Morrisons near Coventry outskirts - the best supermarket ive ever shopped in, so it was a big letdown when I moved home and this new one opened and turned out to be crap. Will stick with Asda me thinks ;-P Vikki xx

I shop at Morrissons but have also noticed that their prices have gone up an awful lot, so I am gradually moving back to Sainsbury. xxhugxx

I do my main shop at Morrisons - and quite like it -our Asda is too small to be of any use - our safeways was too expensive - Tesco's is okay but not first choice although nearer. wish i could afford to shop at Waitrose..... or M&S occasionally ( for some yummmy treats) although i do not belive those who say they do ALL their grocery shopping at M&S - they can't have a very varied diet as the food deptartments are never THAT big. And anyone that can afford to buy Loo rolls at M&S........ jess

We shop at Sainsbury's one weeek and Morrisons the next. Morrisons for cheaper offers and sainsbury's for stuff we can't get at Morrisons. Both shops never have the shelves fully stocked but sainsbury's is the worst. Also occasionally shop at tescos but find it too chaotic, always loads of big families all shouting at their children due tot he area it is in. I went with my daughter to tescos near the M3 at winchester and was quite impressed so i guess the stores vary according tot he managers. Shopped in Morrisons in Bridport and the staff wee most unfriendly. Ours in tewkesbury are fine. sainsbury's staff in Gloucester are always very pleasant. I like M&S but it is not convenient for a big shop and very expensive. Ann Glos

The problem I have with Asda is the George department! lol. I can't resist having a look as you can get some really good bargains. So in the long run would I save money, or just blow it on clothes! lol

They're building a huge Asda here at the moment, will be open in November... think we'll give that a whirl.

I do most of my shopping at Morrisons. Only seven minutes walk away. But I must admit, their Fruit and Vegetables are not very good. Potatoes, Carrots Lettuce and Tomatoes only seem to last two days before going rotton. I alway found safeway very dear compared to Morrisons. Jenny.

I've only used Morrison's a few times and have to agree with everything Dawn has said. Sainsbury is becoming overpriced, ditto Tesco. Asda is probably best value but gets a bit samey. To be honest I think they've all gone downhill and none of them are as good as they used to be. I love M&S food but can't afford it on a regular basis though, lol.

I have tried Morrisons once, wasn't over keen i go to Tesco's

Morning Dawn and Paul! I've shopped at Morrisons for quite a few years now and it seems the prices have gone up since they took over the Safeways stores. My nearest supermarket is Sainsbury but I find that expensive too. Our Tesco is about 10 miles away too but it's a right pain in the butt to get to! Think I might have to give Asda a go

We have had Safeways (shopped there for 15 years!) taken over my Morrisons (rubbish) and now taken over by Somerfield, which seems to be quite good....Much prefer to shop at M & S though!

We often shop at Morrisons for convenience as it's the nearest supermarket... however we're not that keen, preferred it when it was Safeway. We prefer Tescos really, and have started going there again the last few weeks. That said, I do think it's cheaper than Tescos.

Have you noticed your shopping is costing a lot more than it used to? I seem to be spending at least an extra £20 a week and I'm sure I'm not getting anything different. Jeanette x
