I'd definitely prefer Sainsburys.

There is a Sainsburys in Darwen, virtually in the centre.

It’s about half the size of Asda at Grimshaw Park, Blackburn.

The strange thing about it is that it doesn’t sell Berkeley blue fags. Well it didn’t the last time that I was in a few weeks back. The red and green yes and all the other brands but no blue. How weird is that?

I agree, but at the end of the day, it's still good to have a choice.

I hold "loyalty" cards for Sainsburys and Tesco, and use either stores depending on several factors.

1. I prefer to buy my petrol from Sainsburys, so shop in Sainsburys when I need to fill up.

2. Tesco's used to be closest to my workplace, so I would visit Tesco's for bits 'n' pieces after work.

By doing this I could take advantage of promotions in both stores and add a wider variety of products to my shopping basket.

Re: Sainsburys
This could be just Sainsbury's excuse to back-pedal on investment plans during the present economic climate.

It's not the right time for big investment committments with the "credit crunch" looming, they won't be the only ones tightening their belts.

Time to scarper!
