I regularly buy the Basics tissues, pasta, bourbon biscuits, digestives, fromage frais and yoghurt (both plain and fruit ones, which the DDs like as it's quite smooth, like Ski) and fish fingers.

Great:
shortbread,
frozen white fish fillets for kedgeree, fish pie and fried goujons,
chocolate mousse and creme caramel - about 10p each and identical ingredient list and proportions as usual range,
sparkling water,
mozzarella cheese for pizzas - really good,
chopped tomatoes - OK,
white, milk and black choc - 30 100g - perfect for cooking and making cheap crispy cakes or tiffin.
plain and SR flour

Not tried anything else yet though I did splash out 20p on their veg and chicken stock cubes at 10p a packet just in case they are bearable.
