I usually purchase this from my Balham Branch and actually went there to find if it had gone up there as well-which it had. Being a pensioner makes a lot of difference on my financial status when food goes up a great deal. I do not find Sainsbury's as cheap as it used to be and will continue now to shop mainly at Lidl. I would appreciate a reply as to why such a large increase on this product. Thankyou. Mrs P Higginson.

I do know that some elderly drivers are a bit docile but also younger drivers think the road belongs to them and you have to get out of their way it takes all sorts of people to be drivers young and old and one day you people will reach eighty. I eventually spoke to one of your sales people and he said it was to soon to give me a qoute for my car renewall and i said why he said things could change and the quote he would give me now would not be valid well unless i pop my clogs or write the car off nothing will change.????
