SPAR Titanic
The selection is very strange as they don't have some very common items, yet, they have things, you wouldn't normally expect, and they very quickly and very constantly take out the few items you love, and no one on the floor can help you, as they obviously don't know what's going on themselves with the items. They keep telling you it's been ordered, but oh strange, it's not here this week. They tell you that for months. Not blaming them for staying optimistic, but wanted to point that out.
Another example are the donuts (probably other things like that as well), which are very old sometimes, sure, still edible, but they are still up for full price. 1.75 for 5 little donuts... And if you're unlucky, they are some days old and not fluffy any more yet still 1 pounds 75 pence. I am not sure how long they stay, but my guess is, at least 3 days or so.
And speaking of 1.75 for 5 little donuts, it's not the only thing that is unreasonably expensive. It's everything in this store.
Staff seems bored at times, but they do their jobs and keep the shelves filled, help at the self checkouts and are happy to give advice when asked. The only reason why I give it 2 stars instead of one.
There is nothing else on this side of the river, and that's maybe why they get away with it the prices, old bakerd goods and shrinking selection.
But across the bridge, you have plenty of options. Lidl, tesco and other smaller shops, all just up the high street. So if you don't mind walking 10-15 minutes for better prices, that's what I recommend you to do, and that's what I am doing from now on.
