We only use Anchor Butter Acey, on offer at our local Waitrose ( £3-75 ) still dear but we only buy

it when on offer. Have tried most butters but always end up back with Anchor. Hoping Ferns Lock in

the last at Thurles will pay for my next Tub. !! Happy

I'm informed the Norpak vs Lurpak comparison is favourable , all ingredients are a replica including butter content 64% vs 64%

Norpak £2.29 vs Lurpak £4.75

Stand to be corrected if i'm wrong but reliably informed i think ( a Roy Cropper type neighbour )


Good shopping  Happy

The bargain at Nisi is the booze, available 24 hours a day. Bought a pack of cigs there other day, £16 or thereabouts.

lurpak much better although im talking about the real thing, not soemthing adulterated with palm oil

i also tried dry-roasted peanuts, crisps, faux-toblerone, beans and a few other things i cant remember. didnt like any of em. i also could not abide the piped music.

tesco chairman on tv on sunday morning basically admitting some of his suppliers are simply ripping people off for no reason. 

should be named & shamed.

That's rich, Dick Turpin would be proud of Tesco.
Report hulk23 January 25, 2023 2:01 PM GMT
saddo, you do know their prices are governed by those charged by the supplier.  they refused to sell certain kraft / heinz products as they deemed their price increases were a p!ss take.
Report saddo January 25, 2023 2:03 PM GMT
Tesco must be one of the dearest local chains out there, I rarely buy more than milk at the one near me, everything looks overpriced.
