M&S or Tesco for groceries?
2 scotch eggs from M&S ￡1.49p; the same from Tesco 68p. How on earth can M&S justify charging over double the price of a competitor?
You don't get double the value - in fact there is very little discernible difference between the two products. I just don't understand it.
Answers:
It is the brand name. Tesco products are good and ranges from different varieties- some are labelled as Tesco Values, Tesco Finest, Tesco Organic, etc.
I also tried looking and comparing in M&S and found that it's products are good-packaged and they offer different looking food products although I say, in comparison, it doesn't make a huge difference. I just noticed the buyers- in Tesco- it's for everybody I suppose for the mass. While in M&S, it's more of sophisticated and most of their products are organic and finely produced.
All I can say is, just go for the better but take note of the value-quantity and quality of the product. For me, me and my mum always shop in Tesco for their product is definitely good and affordable. I also love that they reduce price by 50% in some items like bread if the expiration is near but it really lasts.
It's just the name actually. Just go for what's practical. Oh, there are also good but cheap products in M&S. Like 99pence goat's milk which I think, Tesco's price is more higher than that. That's the only thing I can think of now.
Maybe the eggs are "free-range" and certified "organic"*scoffs*
Just buy the normal ones, they are cheaper, more practical.
I agree it is high priced but the taste is better and I think the quality is better, especially the meat. There are people that can afford to buy food from there, so why should they not buy the best of what they can afford? If you were rich and money was no object wouldn't you buy the better quality product? For me Marks and Spencer is a treat, maybe once a week or something, but if I could afford it then too right I would buy everything from there.
