Yip A whole Thread about Tesco Breaded Haddock

[WatchTheHolly]

Okay I'm feeling a bit outraged this morning. Over Fish!

Tesco Frozen Haddock Fillets 500g - it was £3.5 for a while. Then recently it went up to £4 which was quite a jump - about 12.5% This was recently as in the last 3 months because I am still smarting from the increase when I buy it.

Doing my Tesco Shop just now and it's gone up again to £4.40. So another jump of 10%

So in the last 3 months this box of fish has gone up 22.5%

And people wonder why they are struggling to control their food shop bill.

What can have happened to cause such a large increase over 12 weeks approx.

YANBU - Tesco are raking in the profits and putting up the price
YABU - Tesco are suffering this much in increased costs and having to pass it on to customers

We got fish and chips on Fri after is had a hospital appointment. First time in about a year. 2 fish 1 large bag of chips (to share), used to be about £19. On Friday it cost £27.50! It's going to be a long time before we have chippy fish and chps again!

A loaf of bread was £1.65 in Tesco about four weeks ago is now labelled £2.20. It's crazy and bears no relation to the inflation figure which gets bandied about.

Stuff is going up in Lidl too. The cheapest cottage cheese is now 99p and my fave fish fingers have gone from 2.99 to 3.49.

The price of fresh cod and haddock has rocketed. Lots of fish and chip shops are going out of business as a result.

There's no point carping about it - eventually you will be knocked off your perch, and end up floundering about like the rest of us

Lots of that breaded haddock is more bread than fish anyway. Which also skyrockets the calories, if anyone cares.

I prefer my haddock fillets naked.salt,pepper and squeeze of lemon 😋

At leat I know my plaice!

And you're not shellfish.

😆😆😆

You lot are not at all koi, are you? 😀

No, just in tuna with the times.

I'm sick of herring about all these problems - it's a krill, krill world. Just got to hope for betta things and remember remora is another day.

Enough with the cod-psychology. I feel like we're being catfished...

Have a deep look into your sole.

Well, this comment has left me reeling. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to mussel into your territory, but it's so hard to find a pike-minded group of people.
I know I am skateing on thin ice but honestly, chatting here has been a ray of sunshine in my otherwise monkfish existence.

This thread is fishing for compliments, in halibut name,but the net is closing in as scales fall from people’s eyes…

I confess, I'm just trawling on here, without a trout, I am only here for the turbot-charged prawns

A bag of Young’s scampi recently bought for £6 in Sainsbury’s. There were only 8 pieces in it, I’m not buying that again.

Aldi frozen haddock fillets are nice...£3.39

The cost of everything was always going to go up when we voted for Brexit. The shops have avoided passing it on for a few years but it was always going to happen and now it has. You can thank Nigel Farage and his followers.

And it's mostly breadcrumbs...swizz.

You don’t have to get the exact same product though. Youngs or Birds Eye might be on offer. Or chunky fish fingers. Or battered instead of breaded.

I'm shocked that you are spending £400 a month for just you and your dog! That's a huge amount.
We are a family of 4 adults and I spend that for all of us😱
You could definitely reduce that bill.
Supermarkets rely heavily on customers not comparing prices and buying the same every week.

Sorry, but has nobody noticed the hilarious fish puns? This thread is just the plaice for such joviality, even if it is falling a bit flatfish

Their fish fingers are very low on fish content too.
