Grocery shopping is not my favourite activity – I cannot say I enjoy trawling up and down aisles hoping I have remembered all I might need or want for my weekly shop, then having to queue to pay for it all. This site solves that problem allowing me to grocery shop from my own home from Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Asda and Ocado depending on how near they are to where you are shopping from – in my case I can shop from Tesco and Asda and see which shopping basket works out the cheaper.
It also stores all my purchased items as favourites – and I do tend to buy a lot of the same items week in week out! – making my grocery shopping even more efficient – I can then just sit back and wait for them to be delivered.
My one bug-bear is more to do with the grocery stores themselves and their time-limited offers – when I choose a delivery date a few days in advance many of the offers are no longer available. I do think that the offers should be based on when the item is bought not when it is delivered and hope that Tesco and the like come to that view too in the future.
I won’t say My Supermarket is Grocery shopping made fun – that would be overstating it! – but as pleasant as it is ever likely to be!
Hi Sam,
My name is James Foord, and I look after Business Development for mySupermarket, the independent grocery shopping site.
I wanted to thank you for a lovely piece you wrote about us on your great site back in March (delayed reaction, I know!)
It’s great that you recognise us as a great option for helping customers This is what we are obsessed about in this world of clever marketing and confusing messages. We’ve recently redesigned out entire site and have include dBoots and Superdrug – so a great way to save on all those expensive cosmetics and baby products. I hope you like it, but let me know what you think
Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if we can help you with anything.
Take care,
James

Thank you James – that you work for mySupermarket and have discovered this post and commented on it is greatly appreciated. No matter about it being belated – many a blog post gets lost in cyberspace and I am pleased you eventually discovered this one.
I am aware of the changes to MySupermarket you list and I continue to use your site for my grocery shopping – and will certainly be even more grateful for it with Christmas and New Year approaching!
I shall have a look at the Boots and Superdrug stores too.

My pleasure Sam, and be sure to let me know what you think to the site. The majority of our changes are made from comments and ideas from our users, so any advice is gratefully received.
Have a lovely Xmas
James
