I love todays hypermarket shopping experiences! I go to at least two every week ,and come back with books, things for the house, clothes, make up and toiletries, linens, oh! and a few items of groceries! Living in a small village with no shops, these places remind me of the big urban places I used to live in! :-D |

I go to Asda or Morrison, I will not go to Tesco since I found out they buy land and do nothing with it, the reason is to stop any other store opening up and taking customers away them, there is a Tesco express less then 5 minutes walk from us but I won't go in there. |

I have a mental health disorder that makes me uncomfortable around large groups of people, so would really hate to have to go shopping in town at the weekend. Just having to get on the bus is bad enough! |

after all, the word "market" in "supermarket" does suggest a variety of products - it's just that all the market stalls are under one roof and belong to one owner! |

Lady Scozz, your supermarket sounds most un-customer friendly. Most of our supermarkets have similar things together, like dairy products, cleaning things etc and our local Co-op has all its paper products in one aisle - there is even an overhead sign to tell you where. :-) :-) |

I quite enjoy the weekly shop, and am one of those who do occasionally wander off and have a browse around the clothes and books etc. It doesn't worry me, easy to bypass if you don't want to look. |

In the main we go to M &S and Morrisons, and use Sainsburys online regularly. |

I think many are out to buy happiness or some sort of new identity. |

I agree with you and when shopping just want to get what is written on the list, however I know many people who just enjoy the browsing and have time to do this, as more of a social event rather than a functional need. |

OH's mother was asking him why we don't shop in Tesco and Sainsbury. That is OH, the salesman's dream, his mother, beyond the salesman's wildest dreams. |
