    @michaeltenebro I'm not bulk buying. Every time I buy only last me 2-3 days, at most 5 and I'm visiting the supermarket every day. The refrigerator in my studio is not big so I can't bulk buy a lot. Currently I have 9 days of data since I moved into my first home in the UK.

    @haldog I haven't visited Aldi yet. I've compared prices in Lidl and Asda. Is Aldi cheaper than these 2?
