A large Farmfoods store located on the street behind Bon Accord shopping centre…read more There are so many bargains to be had here, and its amazing how much money you can save compared to other supermarkets. Most of the food is frozen food, tins or packets. There is no fresh fruit or veg. There are always offers on, such as 5 cans of juice for £1, 2 tins of soup for £1 etc. You can end up buying so much stuff! I never find this shop to be very busy and have never had to wait long in a queue to buy my goods. This is a great shop for stocking up your cupboards at a good price.

The store is well laid out in sections of fish, ready meals, chicken, vegetables, pies and pizzas and frozen deserts. Their jars of sauce and dried goods are also really good value. The only downside of the store is that the checkouts are pretty low-tech and it can take a while if you pay by card.

I am extremely disappointed with my experience at Sainsbury's at Berryden, Aberdeen. Today, I…read morebought an Indian meal that was on sale as it was expiring today. When I got home and opened it, the rice had an absolutely foul, rotten smell, it was clearly already spoiled. I then had to go through the hassle of driving all the way back to the store just to return it, wasting my time and fuel for something that should never have happened in the first place. Although they refunded the spoiled meal, I was shocked that they made me pay the difference for the replacement. Selling food that's expiring today and already gone bad is unacceptable and the way this was handled was completely unfair. I've been shopping at Sainsbury's for years and always trusted their standards, but after this experience, they have certainly lost a loyal and valuable customer.

This a superstore, nay, megastore in Aberdeen! This store sells more than groceries, but also…read morehomewares and clothing. There is also a cafe inside for hot food and drinks. Prices as usual, reasonable. The store layout is easy to navigate and is clean and well stocked. Service is decent, but at a peak time there were nowhere near enough staff at the registers resulting in long queues which was quite annoying.

What an EXTRAORDINARILY badly managed store! We called in for "one to two" things which turned into…read morea small trolley full, as these visits often do... On approaching the staffed checkouts (we prefer a human being to doing it ourselves) we saw significant queues and no signs of movement, and two tills were closing (this was around 5.20pm). A manager (?) assured us that there would be staff coming to the checkouts "in two minutes". I'm glad we didn't take him at his word, because the 20 minutes we were there we didn't see any (even after the "queue-buster call went out at 5.30pm). The poor woman working at our till was totally overwhelmed with her workload (and she was a middle-aged lady), while younger staff were seen leisurely wandering around the self service and self-scanned areas - surely some kind of staffing malfunction? We often shop at Aldi (Beach Boulevard) Lidl (Torry) and Tesco (Torry) all within 1-2 miles of this Asda and ALL of those stores have efficient staffing, effective management, and priority service for customers wishing to use staffed tills. We now rarely shop in Asda, we used to be regular shoppers in Glasgow and Cumbernauld, but our experience of Asda - especially as they are heavily pushing the self-service to the real detriment of the one-to-one customer experience has not only put us off, but I'm sure will put many many more customers off. Asda it's EASY; 1. convert some of the profits to secure good staff 2. increase your staffing 3. serve your customers. Because if you continue to push staffed checkouts down your list of priorities then we will not return. And we are not alone.

I visited this Tesco while on a long road trip to visit a friend. We knew we had to pick up booze…read morefor the weekend while we were en route, and when our bladders told us we had to stop in Aviemore we decided to pop into Tesco. Firstly, this Tesco has toilets, but only one ladies and one gents so there was a bit of a queue! Secondly, the staff are lovely. The man who served us was jolly and cheerful, and laughed at us for the amount of prosseco we were buying (we were somewhat out of place amongst all the local Saturday morning shoppers). He then went on to give us directions to where we were headed, super useful when you have no mobile signal in the Highlands. Yes, it's a small Tesco, but you're in a small town so that's to be expected. It served us well and we left with a smile, and what more could you ask for?

Tescos are taking over the world, even Aviemore. That said, even Aviemore needs groceries…read more Small (by comparison to other stores) with reasonable stock for its size. Gets pretty crowded in tourist season and can sell out of things. Car park is poorly laid out and becomes a nightmare when busy, the entrance is ridiculously close to a pedestrian crossing which contributes to grid lock on the main street at busy times.

We've been going a lot to Tescos lately and been very happy with the prices and quality. Now we…read morestayed in Hopeman and this M&S was the next bigger Grocery Store. We've been to M&S several times before and always liked the quality - even though a bit pricey sometimes. This one here is medium sized in the middle of Elgin. Fruit, veggy and meat selection is good and they had some really good dry-aged scottish Steaks. Nice cheese plates too for very affordable prices. The rest of the food section was a bit small. Yes, they got everything you need, but not much to choose from - not that much variety. The wine section was a bit of a let-down. Not that much choice and mostly french wines - which i'm not that much into (you can get similar or better quality wines from other countries for less, but that's just my opinion). Staff here was very friendly and helpful. All in all still a good choice, especially for the meat section. But given the choice - I'll go to Tesco again next time (yes...laugh all you want).
