        @BBCBreaking is it just budget supermarkets causing the squeeze or are more people deciding to #shoplocal and support #smallbusiness too?

        @BBCBreaking Like-4-like? The challenge was finding anything in the store I liked. Walked in looked around and walked out again. Sad really.

        @mrspat51 @BBCBreaking Agreed. 'Lack of effort' sums it up perfectly. They missed out on £100 worth of spending from us there.

        @BBCBreaking so establishment, so negative. why not report Sainsbury's view that this is 'great news' for consumers. Don't consumers matter?

        @BBCBreaking No surprise there. The only supermarket that makes compulsory charges for plastic bags that customers don't want.

        @BBCBreaking Don't Sainsbury's and Tesco offer "Buy 1-Get 1 Later" vouchers on perishables? Wish we had that in the USA.

        @BBCBreaking sainsburys too expensive for us, and Tesco rip off merchants too. Prefer @AldiUK and @Morrisons thanks.
