look quality differ. I've been told by vegatarians that the fruits and veg = of stalls in my local walthmstow market are better tasting than the polsish= ed and waxed version supermarkets sell in prepacked bags.

ems and throw 80% of it out as I won't eat it all in just one week.

ecause it'll go mouldy....

Freeze half of it.

Some people do not have to look at the price.

I have to.

I wasn't thinking of cost, more about the quality. Supermarket veg seems to be almost tasteless and starts to rot almost as soon as you get it home.

d shop sainsbury were doing them for ~65p each,

Fray Bentos pies, =A31 in poundland, =A32.20 in Tesco.

What's the meat content of those shebas, might keep my eyes open for them ;-(

m and it takes me 1 hour+ to get to the market. Of course I could go saturd= ay morning and give up drinking friday night, :- I tend to get to bed abo= ut 4-5am

What time does the market set up in the morning?

Could you stay awake for another couple of hours, get the shopping at

7am, have breakfast in the market cafe, then go to sleep?

What does the other stuff in poundland cost?

What I want to know is what happens to the kids when the pushchairs have quite finished with them.

I don't as I do not need to.

Best way, let her decide what you can eat and how much it costs..

Varies, some things are 25p or 33.3_p each but you have to buy 4 or 3 of them.

Sometimes things are =A31 each or 3 for =A32 etc.

Some things cost 50p, 33.33p, and sub-multiples of £1. What did you think they cost?

Best not, not all SWMBOs are as well-behaved with money as Mrs Pounder.

You are buying it in the wrong supermarket. My local ASDA has better, fresher veg than the local markets. Its also cheaper most of the time.

One thing to remember is to avoid the organic stuff as it sits around longer.

That isn't my experience. ASDA cucumber don't seem to keep, the toms are softish right off the shelf, peaches are like rocks until about day 5 when they're rotten etc etc. Bananas are very good though. Things like strawberries/blueberries I expect them to start flogging them singly soon else we take the money in a wheelbarrow. AFAICS Tesco fruit/veg is even more expensive.

..hasnt been irradiated to kill the bugs. Organic beansprouts killed more people than Fukushima.

Ah, now that's cheating, TNP:

Number killed at Fukushima: 0 Number injured at Fukushima: 0 Number killed at TMI: 0 Number injured at TMI: 0

There's plenty of industrial accidents that kill numbers of people.

Or that there are not two mutually incompatible 3-for-2 offers going side by side, perhaps involving different sorts of the same fruit, just to make it tricky to get right.

Well, no not necessarily, it will end up getting binned eventually

Fray Bentos pies, £1 in poundland, £2.20 in Tesco.

Tempted by this, offer I bought one.

I thought that there were over-priced at a quid, I'm really surprised that they get repeat sales at 2 quid
