    OK, not sure if this has been done, so here goes.

    Where is your favourite place to shop for food and other stuff?

    I love Lidl... dont know why, but I love the place.

    Lidl or Tesco (mainly coz its open when I feel like shopping at midnight)

    Probably the wrong forum for this though.

    I like when I find groceries in unexpected places like the side of the road or on tree branches. Always makes me smile.

    mix and match really.
    Tesco for the basics.... Superquinn for some fresh foods (meats / breads) and M&S for some treats!

    I love shopping in other countries. Always really fun to see all the different things available and the funny names for familiar items. I love the huge Cornelscourt Dunnes. There's so much there. M&S is ok but there really isn't that much variety. The food kicks ass there just after a while it gets old.

    Tesco seeing as i go nowhere else

    shops abroad are different, Eurospar in Ibiza for example had a selection of dildos and blow up dolls to buy at the counter

    I hate shopping for groceries. However, the one that's frequented weekly is Superquinn. They've gone to the dogs though.

    As for Lidl, I find it depressing. I wish they'd play music in the background or something.

    Try the Asian shops around South Great Georges Street. There are some real bargains to be found in them. I mostly shop in Dunnes with forays to Superquin when I feel like rashers that still have the rind attached!!
