Convenience, see. At a cost premium. That would be the 'cheaper' bit. To do that you need to by in greater bulk. That means your two bags are no longer sufficient. (At least for a family) so it's back to the car. Ho yuss.

We will just have to disagree then. I don't see how changes to the planning laws that positively support large scale detriment and remove / reduce the rights of people to complain against such schemes is "going along with it" - as just one example.
But you're comparing apples to oranges still. How long (start to finish) does it take to drive (or take the bus) to the supermarket, but an entire weeks food and reutrn home. No compare that to the time it takes (start to finish) to nip on a bus, get a couple of bags of shopping and return home. Now multiply b by the number of times you have to do it to end up with the same amount of food as a. If that is less time, I will be very surprised. I will also suspect you of cheating. Different argument, that. If you compare like with like directly, supermarkets are cheaper. Yes one may spend more, but you get more (quantity). How can you cook a batch of stuff and freeze it until you've got it? I'm not sure what on earth your suggesting here, but you seem a bit confused. We have a microwave. It gets used for two things 1) Coffee 2) Porridge Also yep. Don't get me wrong. I loathe Sainsbury's et al, but I'm as much a slave as the next bloke. I'm not prepared to sacrifice my lifestyle for increased fod bills. And to top it off, there are no decent food shops in Harlow. -- Catman MIB#14 SKoGA#6 TEAR#4 BOTAFOF#38 Apostle#21 COSOC#3 Tyger, Tyger Burning Bright (Remove rust to reply) Alfa 116 Giulietta 3.0l (Really) Sprint 1.7 156 TS S2 Triumph Speed Triple: Black with extra black bits www.cuore-sportivo.co.uk
Because that's not what *most* people want when they go shopping. Uh huh Almost certainly, as long as you compare equal quality Yes, but still wrong IMO. You have a family at all? I suggest you try it, limiting yourself to what you can carry. **** nose. Reheated cafetiere coffee tastes *almost* as food as fresh and a thousand times better than the best instant. Heh. Not usually, since I know how long to put it on for Take it from me, you would. If you bought the same amount of stuff. I tend to blend my shopping: Makro, Sainsbury's, some market. Local Organic Farm for special occasions, distant fishmonger likewise. It slaves my moral conscience, but means I spend rather more in fuel and rather a lot more in buying organic meat and decent fish than if I stuck with the shite that Sainsbury's sell. OTOH Makro's meat is rather a lot cheaper..... Yes. You buy less stuff. Less impulse buys. Yep. SWMBO does that about 60% if the time she goes out for me. -- Catman MIB#14 SKoGA#6 TEAR#4 BOTAFOF#38 Apostle#21 COSOC#3 Tyger, Tyger Burning Bright (Remove rust to reply) Alfa 116 Giulietta 3.0l (Really) Sprint 1.7 156 TS S2 Triumph Speed Triple: Black with extra black bits www.cuore-sportivo.co.uk
Observation. If people didn't want (or at least think they want) to do it, they wouldn't, surely? Quality of product, measured any way you like.
