  Don't think there is any such thing as the best value supermarket think you just need to shop around.

  I am lucky in that I live near to several supermarkets(all within 10 mins travel time)
  
  For value I love Aldi and Asda and for the things I cannot get at either of those I use Tesco as their range is huge.
  
  I have found that the Aldi alternatives of the main brands can be as good and sometimes better,occasionally the brand name is better but it's all worth a try.

  Aldi is good for cheap quality stuff. But their stores are small so you need to shop around for sure for other stuff.

  buy the offers from all the supermarkets but main shop at tesco, but only because it is nearer.

  They're all much the same really, shop smart and it won't be much different which one you go to.
  As for aldi, lidl, i've only been in aldi a few times, got some nice cheap products, but i would never do a main shop there, overall poor quality stuff and awful stores.

  Interesting that some think Aldi / Lidl is poor quality and others think its good.
  Think i'll maybe try a big monthly shop at Tesco / Sainsburys and then try these discount ones on a weekly basis and hopefully spend less that way.
  
  Is Morrisons cheaper than Tesco but more expensive that Aldi - so a good compromise?

  We head to Asda most of the time now, plus you can upload your receipt to see it you can get it cheaper anywhere else. If you can they refund the difference. So can't really moan. :)

  Just amplifying what everybody else says,. If you want to get the best value then invest a little time and play the supermarkets at their own game. Shop around for offers on what you normally buy, know what you want and ignore the offers you don't need,
  If you use well known brands then consider using alternatives, if you want some suggestions then try aldi or lidl chocolate digestives against the brand leader., the same goes for most products.
  
  Remember the aim of a supermarket is to make as much money out of you as they can, offers are a means to that end, be wise to it and reap the rewards.

  disappointed, i only came in this thread because i thought you'd say the one which sells items for 99p

  
  
  Poor Shops will never live that down :D
  
  I've found Tesco prices creep up and up but they do have the range which Asda, Lidl and Aldi don't have.

  I like Morrisons. Do most shopping at Sainsbury's as its closest. Always spend too much when i go to Asda.

  Aldi m8 = i used morrisons for years and have 4 girls - the cost of eating healthy in many main stream supermarkets is silly and total robbery as the mean price of producing food over the years has fallen specially fresh stuff (I know as im a manager in food manufacturing of fresh produce in spalding) - Profits have soared at the cost of you and i - Aldi on the other hand make a small profit on fruit and veg, enough for them to please there share holders and cheap enough for you and me to buy. Granted the other stuff may be a little limited for example frozen stuff but not enough for me to shop elsewhere - i save around £40 on my big shop. Dont ever be fooled by the clubcard rubbish its a con.

  A little tip, if you have the time, to maximising the discounts in Asda.
  
  If you are shopping at Asda separate your shop into special offers and normal items. We just put 2 shops through at till (not as painful as it sounds, just separated by the next customer board)
  
  With an all in one shop we rarely get a voucher back (we are quite careful at checking for deals etc anyway) - split it into 2 and we often get a decent voucher back on the 'normal' one as they tend to be at, or near, the same price in all supermarkets and Asda are committing to 10% cheaper.
  
  Every little helps!...Oh wait :)
