Wow.. that is really surprising because I find I spend much more if I go to Waitrose. Maybe because they have so much nice tempting stuff though, I'm not making a direct comparison based on a shopping list.

Bizibee, it's the supermarket linked to John Lewis, was in the south and in the last few years have opened a few branches in the north, in south Manchester and Cheshire that I know of. Usually much quieter and more pleasant to shop in than the bigger supermarkets
