Sainsburys Reviews

I have been a sainsburys shopper primarily for most of my adult life. I arrived at this mainly by a process of elimination - Asda and the co-op were really low quality, waitrose too expensive, Tesco too out-of-town. The only chain I found that could compete was Morrison's, which surprised my expectations in terms of price and the quality ...  Read the complete review

Shopping at Sainsburys is a relatively new thing for me. The small store in town near to my workplace closed down a couple of years ago...but as luck would have it a new store opened nearby just a few weeks ago. The first thing I have to comment on is how great the building looks. It is a new build and I understand this isn't ...  Read the complete review

Before I begin, I just want to say that before you think about leaving a comment saying that Sainsbury's is pricier than Tesco and Asda, let me explain myself. After having worked at Sainsbury's for over a year and a half now I feel like I do have to write something good about them. I will begin with the prices. Although in ...  Read the complete review

Sainsburys is one of the big four supermarkets in the United Kingdom, although it does lag behind the big two, Tesco and ASDA in popularity. Where I live in Cardiff there are two Sainsburys stores, these are a small city centre shop and a medium sized stored. In terms of the small store, it has followed the new trend of the ...  Read the complete review

A Sainsbury's store opened very close to me about a year ago in the place of as Kwik Save and the difference has been immeasurable. I find it a very pleasant experience to shop in Sainsbury's and certain things that they do mean that this has never wavered. Everything about this store is great. Firstly as soon as you walk ...  Read the complete review

I usually try to visit the nearest Sainsburys to me at least once a month as I get fed up with the same produce from my local suprmarket. I find that Sainsburys offer a good range of produce and the aisles are easy to walk down without having to manoeuvre around different display stands. The fruit and vegatables always seem fresh and the ...  Read the complete review

Hi writing about my local Sainsbury's in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk. This store is large and spacious offering everything you could expect to buy in your average supermarket. It also has a good electricals section with a fair range of TV's, DVD Players etc. The Deli counter here at Sainsbury's is also very good with a wide ...  Read the complete review

I do most of my main grocery shopping at Sainsbury's simply because it is the nearest supermarket for me. Whilst I have often been told by the media and friends alike that Tesco and Asda are better places to shop, I find Sainsbury's equally good if not better at times. Prices for normal everyday essentials are generally the same ...  Read the complete review

Sainsburys is a strange store. It has a reputation of being a little more posh than Asda or Tesco and therefore people believe it to be more expensive. Sainsbury's is not though. Sainsbury's caters for all budgets ranges. They have their basics range to their taste the difference range. I am a student at the moment and use ...  Read the complete review

I grew up on Sainsbury's. We lived in the East End of London and I can remember my grndmother taking me to Sainsbury's whenever we went to Riddley Road Market. It was just around the corner form there in Dalston. In those days it was very old-fashioned, brass posts, engraved glass on the meat and deli-type counters, the old ceramic tile ...  Read the complete review

Sainsburys tend to have a reputation for stocking good quality food, at prices a little lower than waitrose. In Leeds city centre a small sainsburys has opened, ...  Read the complete review

I suppose a review of a supermarket can't be considered complete, without a brief, albeit seemingly off-topic, introductory overview of the stores history. Well, Sainsburys started its life back in the late 19th Century with the first store founded in the late 1860's by John James and Mary Ann Sainsbury. The first store ...  Read the complete review

Thought I would share with you some of my thoughts, impressions and experiences of Sainsburys. I find Sainsburys to be a good all round supermarket. I have to be honest though. I never normally shop at Sainsburys, but recently I have received some money off vouchers for the store near to me so I thought I would give it a try ...  Read the complete review

It isn't easy being a student. I can hear the scoffs from here as these words get posted onto DooYoo - all you grown-ups out there in the real world jeering, "oh of course not! Lazing around all day, never doing any real work, getting up at midday only to fall back into a hungover swoon, then waking at 7pm to propagate your cycle of ...  Read the complete review

Thought I'd pitch in a few words on my experiences at Sainsbury's, an altogether better supermarket. It is true that it is slightly more expensive than the discounters (Asda, Tesco), but I believe that their vast product range offers value for money, some good 'savers' options and superior customer ...  Read the complete review

I havbe always though that sainsburys is too expensive and rightly so. The standard of the food is really actually quite disappointing in comparison to other stores such as Tesco who provide an equal standard of food for a significantly reduced price. There is a sainsburys down the road from me in Fallowfield in Manchester. ...  Read the complete review

I dont often shop at sainsburys as there's isnt one close to where i live, however i do visit my local store at least once a week. Sainsburys is quite a bit more expensive then Tesco and Asda and there is very little of their own branded items on the shelfs. However there campaign 'feed your family for a fiver' is a ...  Read the complete review

Sainsbury's are more expensive than Asda or Tesco's but for most people location is the most important consideration. If you do have to shop at Sainsbury's you can cut costs by shopping late in the day (around 8) when a lot of bakery goods and fresh foods are reduced significantly e.g. 6 hot cross buns reduced from 89p to 30p BOGOF ...  Read the complete review

Sainsburys is now the third largest supermarket chain in the country, having been overtaken by asda and tesco. Yes sainsburys is a typical supermarket in terms of what it sells, but there are some key features which i will try and explain; Own brands - Sainsburys sells own brand food, as well as a budget range (basics) ...  Read the complete review

Mum and dad always shopped at Sainsbury's, so I just carried on shopping there. We did try Asda, Tesco and Morrisons, but didn't like any of the shops. Sainsburys do seem to be more expensive on the prices than the likes of Asda and Tesco, however with the credit crunch and everything going on at the minute we are looking at ...  Read the complete review
