I must be missing something, where are these home bargain stores, never heard of them, read on here a while a go people conversing about farm foods, never heard of them either
Tesco sandwhiches are terrible, cheap and manky looking, no where near value, Sainsbury's do much better one's. |

"Home Bargains" are brilliant. They have the largest store in Selby and the range of products is huge.
Also most of the stock is on permanent offer, and not here today and gone tomorrow. Next visit I will post some of the prices. They only have a small selection of fresh and frozen but just a couple of examples for now re "Bulmer's Woodpecker Cider"in 2 litre bottles, and marked as £3.35 are £1.00 cheaper at the till. Heinz and Baxter's soup is £0.69 which is £0.20 cheaper than Morrisons. As you go in there are some brilliant offers which I guess are there to get you in the mood! |

No. In that situation I would decline to bet. Unfortunately, bad things happen when one declines to eat.

Big can of chick peas at HB...25p...so...it's okay to seek value when gambling...but it's a bit daft to apply the same principle to shopping...?

I know I can buy herbs and spices a lot cheaper at the market but there aren't enough hours in the day. Thyme is money.

Just how many miles should I travel to find this HB shop before I declare it financially non-viable? Do they deliver? Do they provide any service at all beyond the fact that they are cheap?

HB again.....I have a 630ml bottle of "Heinz - Golden Mark" soy sauce that was 65p.
If that isn't a bargain I don't know what is! |

Daughter is watching the pennies as she will be on maternity leave soon.
Instead of doing the Tesco home delivery she has now been introduced to the joys of "Aldi". She has checked what she got against "Tesco" prices, and is saving around 25%. |

Saving a few quid and putting themselves to a measure of inconvenience in the process is a step too far for many people.
It depends how flush you are I suppose. |

Aldi and Lidl will both save you about 20-25% against Tesco prices. However you wont have the choice of 45 types of crisps and 2 aisles of biscuits but life goes on despite such hardships.

Did my usual thing of popping into Morrison's for a few bits, in a basket, and had to switch to a trolley this morning.
Two things to report.... Firstly on choosing some well marbled braising steak for my first stew of the year. Selected the piece of choice which is 550gr and £3.52. Picked up another piece and it was 430gr for £3.92!!! Next for the "sweety bowl"...."Maynards Midget Gems" on special offer at £1.00 (normal price £1.48). The village shop have them permanently at £1.00!!! |

We just bought another frozen turkey from Aldi for £11 and they're alright.
I noticed the same weight turkeys were £15 or £16 in Tesco. No wonder they're losing customers. |
