Is netto any good?
A friend of mine has started shopping at netto
She gets hold of big brands and saves loads. She spends what she saves on clothes or CD's.
She thinks she's smart - but I think netto is unbearable. Should I give it a go?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I love Lidl, I wish there was one nearer though. I once got accused of snobbery for using Tesco bags in there! I can understand what they meant (they were only being jokey anyway) but I had lost my Lidl bag collection and am too tight fisted to buy more.
As for Netto, the one in Swaffham sucks. The quality is fab but it lacks choice, customer service and cleanliness.
If you are on a fixed income as we are now having retired Lidl is great. O.K. you can to pick and choose but for us ,especially Mr S it's good He can get his schwarztbrot and other German style stuff.They have great prices on tinned stuff.Their washing powder washes exactly as white and clean as any expensive brand. I buy fruit juice and bottled water there and they always have a good selection of fruit and veg at our store.
I always shop at Tesco. Nothing to do with snobbery or anything like that.
I am a very fussy eater and although I will eat some products from Netto or Lidl or similar places, I only eat Heinz beans and soups and only like Heinz tomato ketchup, etc. They sell lots of good products which I will eat and drink at very cheap prices but I then have to go to several shops to buy my produce which I don't have the time or effort to do.
It is so much easier to get it all in one shop.
Most certainly I travel there in the 4X4. It's so much higher than the Rolls..how else would I be able to look down on the lower classes who insist on going to "my" shops..........they should be in NETTO or KWIKSAVE..I've never even heard of LIDL...is it foreign?
I too am on a fixed income and even though things are becoming more expensive we scrape by on our �200,000 a year pension........if only everybody had saved like we did they too could have had a reasonably comfortable retirement as we have...........My State Pension?........well it comes in handy to feed the cats and garden birds, though only just!
Well must dash.....someone at the door.....maybe it's Charles and Camilla for coffee (Harrods of course)..........<G>
