Good shampoo and conditioner and Estee Lauder face cream,,

I agree with Deb, i won't compromise on my Tetley Tea. I won't drink any other tea.

Tetley Tea ( but my Auntie is going to send me some Yorkshire) - that will be intersesting at customs! Eucryle tooth powder ( it has to be brought over to me from anyone visiting/vacationing) can't get it here. Dial Soap Deb

Hey Jenny, you're not fussy then!!! Do you find the Kingsmill from Iceland is fresher than from other places also? I don't understand why but here in Taunton, thats the way it is. I've just realised what the time is, think I'd better go to bed or won't be up for work in the moning. Night all Vivienne

hi jenny might see you at makro one day we also get soap powder there its cheaper and the loo rolls plenty of ann xx

I have read that Sainsbury's own brand baked beans,not the cheap range,are in fact Heinz. Agree about the Bailey's.I bought a bottle on the ferry,and another bottle of cream liquer and guess which one I dropped.Oh s***!

Dettol antiseptic disinfectant, antibacterial hand wash and soap. Sanex Cream bath and shower Gel. Colgate Toothpaste. Green Fairy Liquid. Kelloggs Cornflakes, Scott's Porridge Oats. PG Tips Pyramid Tea bags. Douwe Egberts Coffee. Hienz Soups and Sauces. Aldi Baked Beans, Corned Beef, Tuna. Aldi Blue Bathroom cleaner, Yellow Kitchen cleaner, Black bags, Mouthwash. Aldi Orange, Apple Juice. Wilkinsons, Food bags, Foil, Cling Film, Lavender Oil, Pedal Bin Liners. All other shopping done at Morrisons. But not their Vegetables. Oh sorry forgot, Kingsmill bread from Iceland, its cheaper than Morrisons. Toilet rolls, from Macro, as good as the dearer Brands. Daz Soap Powder and Dettox anti bacteria from there also Jenny. Great thread BTW

Bird's Eye frozen peas (haven't found any others as good) Comfort Pure fabric conditioner (any other...even hypoallergenic...brings out my younger daughter in spots) We use a lot of own brand stuff and I find most of it is very good. When my kids were little they were perfectly happy with the cheap baked beans. A lot of the things I can buy really cheaply in Lidls are very good. Their chocolate icecream with chockie bits in is gorgeous. I agree about the decent PG Tips looseleaf tea though. We're not keen on tea bags. We make our tea extra nice with a tiny amount of Lapsang Souchong added to it. Sue

I'm not fussy as long as the label says M&S!!!....foodwise that is (oh and undies too:-) Bev X

Birds Eye Fish Fingers and Chicken Nuggets Kellogs Cornflakes Hellman's Mayonnaise Haagen Dazs Cookies and Creammmmmmmmmm Tropicana Smooooooth Orange Juice Extra-lean or steak mince not fussy really lol Maz. XX

Soup, Beans, Ketchup all have to be Heinz Loo roll has to be quality, mostly Andrex as they often do packs of 9 for the price of 6. Coffee, Nescafe Bread, Kingsmill Mayonaise, there's only one, Hellmans

Baileys - there just is no other!!!!

Loose leaf PG Tips tea.

Prefer not to `compromise` as most(but not all)of the good brands are better than the cheaper ones`. I just think that you get what you pay for. Love and Peace Marianne.xxxx

hiya all .dave you make your own bread? god i am impressed. do you remember the bread strike yonks ago . my hubby said he would make a loaf. must have used to much yeast. it r ose and rose and rose and ended up lik e the blob lol we used it as a door stop x

pepsi ? YUCK !

simple soap wouldnt touch any other

Nescafe? You've got to be joking. That's not coffee. We only drink real coffee. eg Le Carte Noire

Paul, you just reminded me - my husband only drinks coke - the kids know not to bring Pepsi into the house!!

Gwynne... again I agree with you... I don't 'do' cheap lol
