They used to do a jar of cranberry mincemeat at Christmas, it's now discontinued. I'm sad as it made the most amazing mince pies, it was the right side of tart & sweet. Traditional mince pie filling can be too sweet & cloying, this was refreshing and zesty.

Waitrose - if you're reading this please bring it back. I'm not on twitter otherwise I'd have tagged them & linked this thread.

Ah I am in waitrose all the time (nearest supermarket 2 mins away and I get staff discount through dc. Loving the ideas on here - my freezer is full of yellow sticker bargains. I need to use some of it so I can buy some of their ice cream!

@guest2013

Sorry if this has been repeated but the big bags of onion rings that are 150 cals for the whole bag 🥳

@guest2013 - Any hints on what these are called please, I can't find them on the website 🙈

Don't go all that often, but when I do I stock up on their lemon-flavoured olive oil.

We had a lovely pizza a while ago, one of the oval ones. Can't remember which one it was though. Grin

Their seafood cocktail sandwiches are nice too.

@thethoughtfox

JingsMahBucket Those are the meatballs. I have 5 packets in my freezer. We have them with the fresh linguine.

Thanks @thethoughtfox. They’re comfortably in my cart now. :)

Non sugar free high juice. They tax the Sainsbury’s equivalent with the additional sugar tax and it isn’t as nice as Waitrose. I also buy humous and coleslaw. I tend to do my main shop in Sainsbury’s and have two Waitrose’s close to me too, one local and one proper supermarket so I tend to pop in to one of them for pop up shops.
Prefer their beef also. And it’s just a nicer shopping experience.
I have an Asda close to me too which I use for tinned goods and junk food 😳 and it’s the shipping equivalent of Benidorm v St Barts. (Side note, haven’t been to either)

Frozen croissants.
I had a very strong craving for Parmesan for a few months and would buy many tubs of shaved Parmesan.

Tim’s Dairy Vanilla yogurt- just like ice cream. As a pp said the frozen Black Forest roulade is really special. Our 3yr old DGS practically swooned over it at Xmas.
Frozen Mediterranean veg - fantastic with chorizo lardons and chilli oil in an omelette.
Rotisserie chicken, wild salmon fab.
On the downside their meat isn’t good at all.
