I was thinking this too last night when I did my asda order. It seems as though you only get the basic things you need for about a minimum of £60ish and I'm getting really fed up with them!
Its such a shame Morrisons dont have a delivery service as we dont have a car

 

[Tracy831]

I do mine with tesco and I spend about £80 ish as there are 6 of us, and sometimes I will have to get few xtras through week too .

Would love to see an example of your shop as there are 5 of us and I shop frequently at Tesco but spend between £100 and £150 a week

Shishhh I wonder what the he I buy that costs so much then? There's only 3 of us and my little (she's 8.5 stone really) pooch!

I usually come away with just the basics & a few bits of meat for our meals like minced beef (extra lean of course)

Actually thinking about it, I stopped off at sainburys last week for turkey mince, the lean stuff was £1.50 a pack and the extra lean was £4. 4 blooming pound for the extra lean bit. I felt like saying to the woman stacking the shelves "didnt you know dick Turpin wore a mask" but I'd have probably been carted off by the men on White coats!
