Rip off Sainsburys.

Just called in that the above rip off supermarket. A tin of sardines has increased from 35p to 42p over night. a increase of approximatley 26%.I wonder how many more price increases are being slipped in. A few weeks ago it was blamed on the increse of petrol.Lately petrol has decrease. I wonder what the excuse is this time.

corned beef as gone up nearly double!!

don't go there then.

aldi
liddle
netto
better choices bro, so says my missus.

Eggs are going back up.

Chickens are worried.

I'll get me paxo.

lmao @ Dostaf

You can't go wrong with Liddle, Aldi and Netto. I get the essentials at these stores and then get little extras from the other stores. By the way if any of you get Turkey Crowns for Xmas then Aldi is the best I have ever had. Not got mine yet so perhaps I should have kept my gob shut(Hope there are some left after this)

i dont go to sainsbury's but corned beef has doubled every where.

You can't beat a bit of bully.

Pepper has gone up one penny a ton,

Saying nowt bentlegs.

I am now convinced that you aren't happy unless you have something to moan about Brendan. First Bryn Co op and now Sainsburys. What next? Selfridges?

or Harrods?

Tuna has gone up too.

That pepper souds cheap.

It is strange how gas as gone down here in usa but food is still high in price

'... tin of sardines has increased from 35p to 42p ...'

Have you been Pikeing, Brendan?

I am not happy with any shop. Do you not relise that they are all ripping you off.

Well unfortunately some contain things that we need ie food!

Pepper's still at a fair price.

Sainsburys has always had ridiculously high prices.

I stick with Tesco or Morrisons.

Tesco are excellent with the clubcard.

A BIG tip is to sign up for the Christmas Clubcard saver. All your points are saved up over the whole year.

Call Tesco Clubcard to sign up. Number on back of your card.

All the major supermarkets are overpriced, unless you buy their 'own label' stuff which is generally lower quality.
Products have a 'recommended retail price' given by the manufacurers. Supermarkets charge well over these recommended prices, they have to, to keep their own label products prices low and still make a profit.

but tonker....which shops don't?

if you know of any...please post!

go a farm shop, it's better quality, last's longer and is normally cheaper than places like sainsbury's (especially on veg).

Example for wiganstar ...

Uncle Bens packet rice, currently tv advertised,

wholesaler £4.79 six pack
recommended retail, £1.08 (= 26% profit)
Asda £1.35 each or 3 for £3.50

Pataks Curry Range (jars),

wholesaler £4.25 six pack
recommended retail £1.08 (= 34% profit)
Asda £1.42 each or 2 for £2.50
QualitySave 59p each
B&M 69p each
Netto 85p each

4 pints milk,

wholesaler £4.25 six pack
recommended retail £1.39 (= 21% profit)
Asda, Sainsbury, Tesco (top 5) £1.54
Iceland £1.25
Aldi, Lidl £1.44

Just three items that came to mind, but it's the same for any branded product unless it's on offer, seasonal etc..

The 'top 5' supermarkets really are frauds!

What are you on about Brendan/Bongo

You are whinging about the price of a tin of sardines

Well what about the price of watching that Yoonited, it must cost you an absolute fortune to support Manchester Yoonited, you must have to work morning, noon and night to afford those “RIP OFF” prices that Yoonited charge and what happens to all that money you pay

It goes to pay the interest on all those loans that the Glazers took out to buy Yoonted

So I would echo what some of the others have said and would suggest you shop at Netto at Marus Bridge instead of Sainsburys

It's not to be sneezed at anyway.

I'd take the comment about the pepper with a "pinch of salt" hee hee

Achoo-ly, I wonder how much room supermarkets have for lowering all their prices.

Due to inflation.....Balloons are goin' up..

Such a popular item at Christmas parties, too, ©art©.

It uppears the bubble may soon burst for their manufacturers - I can not pin point when, but it will leave many let down.

Being a rubber product though, I hope they soon bounce back. Air, what is it they say ... time is a great helium? We shall see what arises.

Waxing lyrical there,'eh? jo anne

When my Mrs aches, I rubber back...Works wonders..

Your pepper worked bentlegs.

Well proudidiot it will not cost you much to go to the latic's.Cause you never go. Unied increased their prices by 5% last season. Not 35%, which is what the Superrobbers are doing. Hows it going at the Lap Club?.

Say that again in English Brendan/Bongo, if you are having difficulty, try using a spell checking program, because you are making yourself look like a tit

budgies are still goin cheap

Proudidiot you really do make a of your self

They lowered "Sarah"'s age.
New girl(42).

That's a real give-away, Dostaf.

She's not pasr her sell-by date though.

Did she work in the Rovers' bar, Dostaf?

Code be that she did jo anne, code be.

Unfortunately, I don't think she's been left on the shelf, Dostaf.

"So that’s my belief as to why the crumpet toast was invented. Purely to extend the shelf life of the product so that it becomes more profitable."


From here.

Aisle take it you liken Tracy to a nice bit of crumpet ... I'm sure it would make her day.

She'd see through my flattery jo anne. She'd say I was only trying to butter her up.

Has anyone ever had their up buttered?

Yes, I'm sure Tracy would be able to deal with such a slippery customer, after all her years on Corrie.

Never mind, Dostaf - chin up for a butter test.

Ta petal.

Some people rip off petals to find out if someone likes them - I don't want to be ripped off.

They can't put money on it, though ... I like the 'striked out words.
