Aldi
Asda
Iceland
Lidl
Marks and Spencer
Morrisons
Sainsburys
Tesco
Waitrose

Thanks in advance!

Aldi - 4
Asda - 5
Iceland - 6
Lidl - 4
Marks and Spencer - not really a place you can do a full shop.
Morrisons

  • 3 Tesco - 2 Waitrose - 1

I expect this is very subjective though! I don't think there is that much between Sainsbury's and Tesco, or Aldi and Lidl, or Morrisons and Asda.

Starting with the poshest:

Waitrose
Marks & Spencer
Tesco
Sainsburys
Morrison’s
Aldi
Asda
Lidl
Iceland

That is based on my experience of branches though, so likely to depend what the particular one is like where you live.

I'm trying to work out how a supermarket could have class! These are all bog standard shops.

LenoVentura · 14/08/2019 14:33

Booth's. Guaranteed you can get quails eggs there as a regular thing. Waitrose too, but there are too many downsides to Waitrose for it to be number one.

No one has added in Fortnum and Masons!

ilovepinkgin33 · 14/08/2019 14:38

This is pathetic!!

Who actually gives a shit
People shop where they like or can afford,
Do we really have to have a caste system for absolutely everything 🖕🏻🖕🏻

Lidl and Aldi are super middle class where I live, perhaps that differs between areas.

It doesn't go in terms of price because everyone knows the truly rich are stingy and love Aldi

Also shop in charity shops yet they still manage to look down on some people

Justanotherlurker · 14/08/2019 15:03

Another nail in the coffin for this forum...

And a lot of posters wonder why they are out of touch.

Tensixtysix · 14/08/2019 15:05

Only shop at Tesco, mainly because I'm six miles from the nearest town and all the shops within that radius are Tesco!
The only other choices are farm shops or village shops.
