HENLEY-ON-THAMES, England, November 19 - Do we save money by driving to the so-called cheapest supermarket
shopping choice? Not always it would seem. That's why deli wholesaler
( www.cotswold-fayre.co.uk/ ) Cotswold Fayre is exposing the myth that
supermarkets are cheaper. Consider Asda's recent announcement that a list of
selected items would all be sold at a fixed price of one pound each. Then it
turns out that almost one in five of the items were selling below one pound
before the offer. But that didn't make any difference… the punters flocked
in their usual thousands to take advantage of this "great offer" and at the
same time spend much more on all the other temptations put in their way. The
anomaly in the offer was exposed in the Grocer Magazine (August 1st 2009), a
trade publication not seen by the general public.
