This Sainsbury's store in Winchester town centre is always busy. There is hardly enough people on…read morethe tills and the aisle are very small and the workers in the store, just tend to leave their work benches or stock in the middle of the aisle blocking access for people to move around it. The stock of food is very limited and I feel sorry for the people who want to buy GM free food as for there is hardly any choices to choose from.

A really big Sainsbury's with lots of choice. Right next to a large Marks and Spencer in a big…read moreshopping and Industrial area. Lots of parking spaces although quite hard to navigate in the car park. It also has a few cash points, a car wash and a petrol station. This Sainsbury's also has a cafe area, a hot food counter, electrical and clothes areas. It is a very large store and takes quite a while to look around, although it is laid out really well. There is a dedicated desk in the clothes and electrical area that can help you with any stock that isn't out on display. It has a large fruit and veg section as well as a bakery but the frozen food isle are not that big. Good place to do your weekly shop as you have a marks and Spencer next door and the petrol is always at a reasonable price compared to other stations. Staff are also helpful and friendly.

leaving Tesco yesterday I realised I had a puncture so pulled in to the recycling area opposite the…read morepetrol station. the gentleman in there offered to help me as he was an ex RAC patrol man. in the end he couldn't as I did not have the correct equipment. I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who stopped to offer help, in the end a lovely young man from Latvia came and helped me. He pulled out this huge screw/ bolt from the tyre then repaired it with something magic that looked like a rubber plug. I don't know his name, he said he lived in new Milton and he had a blue car. He really was a saviour to me. I was so amazed that so many kind people came to my aid and offered help. with all the bad things happening in this world today, all the people who stopped were just kind and wonderfu, I'm glad I live in this great country.

Awesome store. A must visit of you need supplies while in the New Forest. What is even better is…read morethat this is a 24 hour a day store so you can get nappies or anything else you may need. Car park is also quite big, so no problem with stopping here. Another good thing is the fact that the petrol is cheaper here than at any of the other petrol stations in the local area. Top marks!

The issue with the Tescos is that unless you come at the start of the day after they have completed…read morea fruitful stocking night the shelves will be half empty, it will be mind-bogglingly busy and there may be stuff everywhere. However as this place is so huge you'll probably still find what you are looking for. Since I've lived in Oxford I've come here about a dozen or so times. We tend to try and stick to mid evening as the crowds die down a bit and they are not quite into their horrible restocking mode. Generally you can find fresh products and a wide selection of near everything (do not come to this Tescos if you are looking for home goods/ electronics/ etc). The prices as it is Tescos are decent. The staff are generally friendly as long as you're not getting the end of shift crowd. PROS: Large selection Good quantity of stock Price CONS: Gets ultra busy Leftover stock can be of bad quality Other side of the ring road.

This is known fairly widely as 'Big Tesco', to distinguish it from the Tesco on Cowley Road, and it…read morecertainly lives up to the name. It's got a huge range of items, although no adult clothing (other than underwear) or much in the way of electronics/media/toys, unlike even bigger stores. For groceries, though, it's got a lot to offer. Fruit and veg are of good quality and usually well-stocked. The deli and fresh fish counters offer a lot of choice, and they even have a large 'Polish food' section. They have two 'car trolleys' which amuse small (and big) kids greatly, and make the shopping trip easier with children who are too big for the trolley seats but too small to walk all the way around without whining. Staff are friendly and helpful, and offers on food are good value.

As with all Lidl stores they sell food from other countries quite cheaply. They also sell some…read moreproducts from well known brands. From time to time they have some really good offers. I find that I can't get everything I need from this store but I can get a lot from here for a lot less money that at other stores. They charge for carrier bags.

In the current climate, I'm sure more people will be looking for…read morecheaper groceries, etc. I find Lidl's products to be on a par with any of the major supermarkets. Yes, the range is smaller and the shop isn't bright and laid out in the same way as you would expect in major store but this all means that the cost of the products themselves can be kept lower. Lidl always reminds me of supermarkets I have visited in Germany and it's nice to find products being sold that I wouldn't find in one of the majors. The 'nougat pillow' breakfast cereal is amazing (although it's obviously not the healthiest option for breakfast). The main downside to Lidl is the checkout waiting time. They never seem to have many staff on in this store, so there's often quite a wait, which is frustrating if you're only buying a couple of bits. All in all I would recommend it to anyone that's trying to save money and is happy to try something different to what they're used to.

There is a very decent pharmacy instore where the staff are helpful and knowledgable about most issues! I find that the store as a whole tends to quickly sell out of special offers, and the staff as a whole are unaware of what the offers are which doesn't help if you need either clarification or to know when they will be replenished. They have quite a good selection of household products such as duvet covers and kitchen appliances, mostly priced at a reasonable level. There is a cafe in store although i have never ventured in, but it does serve ben and jerrysyum! Dry cleaning gets sent away from this store, so good if you don't mind waiting for a week for it to return! Petrol is always competively priced here to!

To be honest, I've never been an actual fan of Iceland, every time I use to go in, it was always…read morebusy, customer service was poor, quality of items poor and not very clean and tidy aisles. However, after going there a few times after a few years later, Iceland's have definitely improved. I wouldn't say I would do my weekly shopping here, but to get a few odds ends for a cheap prize, then it is worth it. There is always something for the kids or the adults, like 1 pounds for 6 chocolate icecreams, or 2 pounds for a chinese meal. It's good for the quick and easy, put in the oven meal and be done with. The store in Winchester seems clean and tidy, doesn't get too busy, which I like and service is quick. Good place to go to for your frozen or non-frozen items.

I always find doing a main shop here is considerably better value than Asda or Sainsburys with a vast selection in a more comfortably sized and less hassle enviroment and with FREE home delivery if needed. The store is quite well laid out and has a wide range in a small space . By far the best choice in the city centre compared to the hussle bussle of the nearby Sainsburys . Great value £1 deals , friendly staff and generally quick service with the cashiers less robotic than those in the out of town hyper markets .
