I think Somerfield is now defunct. I also haven't seen a Kwik Save for years.

Safeways was bought by Morrisons.

Food Giant: Originally part of Somerfield group, all stores converted to Kwik Save following the Somerfield/Kwik Save merger

There's a Budgens on Upper Street In Islington, of all places. There was a Sperrings near my old house, which became a Circle K, then something else, now it's a Nisa. Obviously gone downhill!
