…Still on supermarkets
Bravo to Frugal Trenches, who has just spent a paltry £12 on her weekly grocery shop.
There are some nice things on her list, too. Don’t worry: she isn’t on tap water sandwiches for the rest of the week.

Sulky Supermarket Shopper
Dear Sainsburys,
I made the following observations, while walking around your supermarket today:
- I like your pouch of fresh hollandaise sauce for 99p. It is freezable, so I can pour the contents into an ice cube tray and it will keep us going for a while. This works out at good value.
- Talking of your fish section: can you cut the prices, please? The battered haddock at the fish and chip shop is cheaper than your woolly-looking fillet selection. Still, I suppose you’ll argue that your haddock is line-caught and the fish and chip shop’s were trawled in alongside innocent dolphins. Grumble grumble.
- And no, before you ask: I’m not going to stoop to the economy salmon fillets. I have enough doubts about the provenance of regular-priced salmon fillets, thank you very much. (more…)
