    I shop in Aldi. Would love to shop in my local Supervalu but it's way too expensive. :(

    Aldi is very good.
    they have the right mix of quality and price.
    they are unbeatable for me.

    Tesco. I know where everything is, I can check the price of my food list online, know how much I'm going to spend and away I go!

    Aldi. Know where everything is so can write the list out in order of where ill find things and so the shopping can be done in 15 minutes.

    Also it's cheap. Shopping for 2 usually between 30 and 50 quid a week depending on what you have to buy (meat and cleaning products tend to bump the price).

    Supervalu because it's within walking distance and I like the quality and selection. If I was feeding a family I'd certainly make a greater effort to shop around on price but I don't see it as worth the hassle for the amount I'm spending on myself each week.

    A mix of everything really! English Market in Cork (few minutes down the road), Tesco, Dunnes, Lidl. Dunnes is the nearest, so we tend to go there most frequently.

    Supervalu have so much handy stuff I mostly go there. The butchers are lovely, they have loads of cool stuff like nut butters, LF milk, quest bars.
    They're a little pricey but so handy and they have most everything ...
    We go to lidl sometimes. If there was one closer I'd go more often

    Try to avoid Tesco but dammit they do have a few things I can't find elsewhere.

    Shop in Supervalu mainly-love their fresh breads, good quality fresh fruit and veg and that they support a lot of Irish producers. Good customer service.

    Aldi I like sometimes too.

    I would seriously be worried about someone's health if they were doing the majority of their shopping in Dealz.

    I usually shop in Lidl, but occasionally go to Tesco as they have better products for home baking.

    Get most of it in Aldi, try to avoid SV like the plague if I can, the cashiers in SV drive me nuts chatting to the people in front about babbies and school and don't care if they hold everyone else up.

    Bet my life you have no kids

    Aldi is the cheapest i find so i go there.

    I usually get my spuds and other veg from country fields - they just grow there naturally so i fill up a few sacks every week.


    Eh, no they do not, that's called stealing :D

    I find Edeka really expensive for most things. Kaufland ftw.

    What, you mean it's not possible to survive on 24-packs of Chickatees and short-dated cans of Irn Bru?

    Sainsburys, marks and spencers, and dunnes. I go up the north and get a good months shopping up there (I have a 20% discount card for marks and spencer UK) then for fresh stuff like bread dunnes.

    Do people buy their groceries in dealz? As in a full grocery shop?

    I live beside a SuperValu so I shop there out of laziness instead of going anywhere else.
