Re: The Food Credit Crunch
Even if you dont shop online you can compare prices at
http://www.mysupermarket.co.uk/Home.aspx You may be asked to register - no charge for it You can enter the items you want to buy and it will compare prices for you at Tesco, Asda, Sainsburys and Avocado. You wont be committed to complete the purchase until you get to the actual chosen supermarket's checkout page, so you can browse prices, and back out at any time. Depending on what you are buying, it varies which supermarket is cheaper overall. You can view special offers and bogoffs. |

Tesco have a few items of fruit & veg on offer every week at the moment, as well as the lettuce i remember pineapples being a pound , it has been advertised in the paper all week. Make a list and stick to what you need, anything extra you see ask yourself `do you really need it........?` |

I too buy Cravendale, it lasts 7 days once opened, but if unopened, the use by date on the bottle is about a month after it has been bought |

Yes we get it to, with the little milk drinkers in ours we buy in bulk because it has great dates. |

Re: The Food Credit Crunch
In the rush to dominate the food market, supermarkets have decimated the milk industry. Dairy farmers are struggling to make ends meet. Some claim to be getting less than it costs them to produce it and have to diversify to try and subsidise the product.
So I get my daily 2 pints of milk delivered by a local farm. Actually to aid in keeping the cost of delivery down, my milk lady only delivers on Mondays, Tuesday, Thursdays and Saturdays. And she collects payment once every five weeks. But I can handle that OK. Even though it has recently been increased to 50p a pint I will continue to support the local farmer, for two reasons. It helps to keep the milk industry alive and you still get real milk, albeit bereft of a decent amount of cream. Sadly you cannot buy ‘green top’ anymore. |
