Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

You must be all of those things granny, just look at the way you voted to prove the point :-)

Calm down GB. I use my local Waitrose in the summer months because my dogs insist on coming with me and I can park under cover. It also has some things that I can't usually find elsewhere. I also use Sainsbury's, Aldi, Iceland, Tesco and M&S from time to time. Depends if I happen to be close for some reason. Aldi is particularly good value but the choice is limited and the queues interminable. It will be interesting to see how the German supermarkets contain prices in the coming months since many of their goods come from Europe.

I went out this morning and bought 40 pots of Marmite and my wife is now wrapping them up as parcels to give at Xmas.

Could send you one if things are tough.

BBC- 2 hours ago - From the section Business
Tesco removes Marmite and other Unilever brands in price row

Marmite, PG Tips tea and Pot Noodles are among dozens of brands currently unavailable on Tesco's online site due to a dispute with Unilever.
Unilever has confirmed it is raising prices in the UK to compensate for the sharp drop in the pound's value.
Tesco is resisting the move and has removed Unilever products from its website.
Unilever's finance chief said such price increases are a "normal" reaction to shifts in currency values.
The products currently absent from Tesco's website also include Comfort fabric conditioner, Hellmann's mayonnaise and Ben & Jerry's ice cream.

Unilever is the UK's biggest food and grocery manufacturer, but many of its products are made outside the UK, so it argues it should be getting more pounds for its products.
Graeme Pitkethly, Unilever's chief financial officer, said the price rises had "landed" with other customers, implying other retailers had accepted the higher prices.
Major supermarket chains including Sainburys, Morrisons and Waitrose declined to comment on specific supplier relationships.
A spokesperson for Lidl said: "Whilst we do not discuss buying prices, we can always assure our customers that we will offer them the best quality products at the lowest retail prices."..............

BBC - Tesco v Unilever

GB - yes i know :-)

Tesco v Unilever

Will it be kiss and make up........... or hand bags at dawn?

"There’s some added spice to the bout because Tesco’s chief executive David Lewis cut his teeth as an executive at Unilever. Hilarious."

mentor, do you know how Unilever's spat with Delhaize in 2009 turned out.
