Indeed. I do the shopping in our house, look after the children, do the housework. Not sure why women need to do all this. Such an antiquated attitude.

I take it they do not do meal deals for lunch? If they do and it's 8 quid, then that is a rip-off. :)

They do darky, but I got this about five because I missed lunch. Also a little picky as don't like the meal options.

Ah I see. I think I would take a packed lunch rather than pay that.

Also sell the same fancy goods at there supercentre in Michigan [ Franklyn st] nice !!, pistols as well,Great choice :-? , and you cant miss the section the display case was about 10 mtr long with enough guns to start a fucking war, its brilliant/
The first time we went to the one in Orlando, I told the wife I was going for a wander while she shopped for clothes.

I then saw what looked like truck tyres at the far end of the store so decided to investigate. Sure enough they had loads of tyres to fit all sorts of vehicles and when I turned the corner I saw the area where the guns, ammo etc were on sale and just thought "What the fuck? This is a supermarket." :lol:

Tesco and M&S are the only UK supermarkets in Ireland, both rip off baxtards in their own way.

Aldi and Lidl have a good market share here. Would do most of my shopping with one of them and dip into the other Irish chains for the odd item I can't get there. I love our German overlords!

I think that Sainsbury's is the best all-rounder. Waitrose is great, but horribly expensive, whereas some stuff you find in Tesco and Asda is pretty poor quality. Aldi and Lidl are ok, but again, strong in some areas and very weak in others.
