Err... I meant Tesco Value.

Value mozzarella

Value Parmesan (and DH is an italian chef!!

Collision - I don't believe you!

tis true!!!!

I've bought Sainsbo's Basics mozzerella before - it's fine.

tesco value
custard creams
borbon biscuits
shortbread fingers
ready salted crisps

When I told DH that Mumsnetters didnt believe him about the value cheese he said to tell you that a lot of italians buy Grano padano over Parmigiano as it is a lot less harsh and sometimes parmesan overpowers the dish.

Plain chocolate digestives
non-fragranced baby wipes (18p/packet!)
Tinned tomatoes

Stewing steak. Makes a great beef casserole (after 2hours in the oven). I think it's called Market Value.

porridge oats,
basmati rice (although non-value is sometimes cheaper)

Ketchup
Apples
Ready salted crisps (the bags are tiny which suits me fine!).

Tesco value kitchen rolls and probiotic drinks

I think those are the only Value products I've tried tbh

Do the biscuits really taste as good as the more expensive ones?

The chocolate digestives taste better than the 'real' ones.

Thanks PandaNot :)

I'll swallow my prejudice next time I'm in Tesco and give them a try. I'm a bit of a brand-name-whore and I need to cut back on my shopping bill.

Sainsbury Basics:

mozzarella
butter
Gran Padana
mature cheddar (for cooking - not so good for eating)

Just thought of...
Tesco Value
Clear honey
Salted peanuts

Flour

Golden syrup

Just thought, asda and sains basic underarm roll on anti perspirent, the asda one stings but the sains doesn't and they keep you dry, I've not noticed as much White marks on my clothes either.

Smart price nappy bags, smart price disposable razors for legs etc.

And cat litter.

Waitrose essentials range baked beans. Better than Heinz!

Tesco Value Vegetable stock cubes just 10p per pack compared to £1.68 for the leading brand.

I often buy the market value fruit and veg - if it's in season. Apples, pears and cabbage good at the moment.

I also love the box of 15 mixed size free range eggs, not sure they are labelled value, but they are keep and good.

Tesco value
multi purpose cleaner
Brie
soy milk
fabric conditioner
jaffa cakes ( really can't tell the difference)
