on line grocery shopping

MargaretR · 12-09-2007, 13:26

I have found a site where you can fill your grocery basket and check which supermarket will be cheapest before you are transferred to the actual supermarket site to book delivery and checkout
mySupermarket - Compare Supermarket Prices â€“ MySupermarket the supermarket comparison site
The goods are displayed better than either Tesco or Asda but being FULL of photos you need patience waiting for pages to load. After you have typed your postcode it displays all the supermarkets who can deliver to you (Sainsburys too).
You can import your 'favourites' from thier websites to make shopping quicker.
The prices do not include delivery charges which vary, but if you use discount vouchers from this site you can get more money off than they are charging for delivery
Tesco Voucher Codes - ShoppingCodes.co.uk
Asda Online Shopping Discount Codes - ShoppingCodes.co.uk

Why dont more of you shop this way? - its CHEAPER!!!!

I think that online supermarket shopping is marvellous. I haven't been into a supermarket for 4 years and wouldn't have it any other way

Much easier Bernadette. No queuing to get on/off the car park, no queuing at the till, no wandering round looking for items, no packing. Like Margaret said, saves on petrol and hassle.
I use Sainsbury's. They deliver in 1 hour time slots. If something you've ordered is not in stock then they send a close substitute (or you can ask for no substitutes). They point any subs out to you so if you don't want them the driver takes them back. There seems to be a thought that they palm off all the shortdated/going off stuff on the online shoppers but in 4 years I have never experienced this so I shall take that as a nasty rumour.

Another bonus is the occasional 'freebie'

I once got £40 worth of wine - not ordered and not paid for

That packer must have had a grudge against her employer or fancied giving me an xmas present

I have reported 'freebies' in the past and was told 'our mistake, keep it' (but I didnt report that one)

PS if anything is missing they refund you

BERNADETTE · 12-09-2007, 16:11

Does sound good, will have to give it a go

Lol. I've had a couple of those 'freebies' too Margaret.

Only ever done it once and what we got wasn't what we ordered and it kind of put me off.

West Ender · 12-09-2007, 17:24

I use Sainsburys Online and it's very good. Everything is good quality and the fresh food is really fresh. If the driver is delayed, which is very rare, he will ring up from his van and give the reason, and his estimated arrival time, and if he's more than 10 minutes past your time-slot you get a £10 voucher. The only not so good thing is you can't order from the deli counter - unsealed cooked meats etc.

As a shopping-hater I would recommend online shopping every time.

BERNADETTE · 12-09-2007, 17:42

I'm going to be rally cheeky now, has anybody got a link that just shows what is available without the voucher/discount codes PLEASE? I would just like to have a quick look THANKS

MargaretR · 12-09-2007, 17:55

On both Asda and Tesco sites you can register and fill a basket and then exit before checkout - until you checkout there is no order placed
Online Grocery Shopping & Delivery Service - Tesco.com
ASDA @t home

Thanks Margaret, just been browsing. It is good

entwisi · 12-09-2007, 18:51

bernadette, its even easier with Tesco who list everything you have bought when using your cluibcard in your 'favourites', that way yuo can just go down your normal shopping list and add what you want

We use it and it saves money as you don't end up picking up stuff you didn't go shopping for.
