I will keep these places in mind when next shopping.
I shop around not just for bargains but for quality of the food.
I have found for example that the meat and fish in Morrison is better than the one in sainsbury and that vegetables in Lidl last longer than the other supermarkets, especially if you are careful to chose them without getting the rotten one inside the pack.
However looking at the quality being in Waitrose and M&S the other day, I realise that they have better quality, although you have to pay a bit more. But if the price is only questin of pennies, why not to get the best qualiity, instead of the rotten one. Some of the reduced food that Sainsbury put on display for customers sale, should not be there at all, always with rotten things inside and still at high prices.
Apart from this, I hate the game they play to reduce the items at a very high price around early afternoon and then they do at different time but if you are prepared t buy them say around seven o'clock, they won't give you the last price of the day, which is what you probably were prepared to pay for food which they are going to thow away, anyway if they do not sell it on the date, but they keep you waiting till 9.00 or 10.00 pm. How crazy! befor shrinkage was sold to staff at the end of the day for a nominal value, but they would never sell rotten food for a nominal value. I used to work for M&S years and years ago in their food dept, but for health and safety if anything rotten, would go in the bin, nevr sold to a customer or to a mmber of staff.
