Iceland

I’m not a Mum and I don’t like Kerry Katona or Coleen Nolan. I only really chose to set foot in this store as it was next to Aldi and the bus stop where I often had to kill time before my bus home from work.
However, it’s a decent-​sized store and while I avoided the party platters and ready meals, it was great for picking up frozen goods like frozen spinach (£1 for a big bag) and Quorn mince (£2 a bag). On the times that I went in it wasn’t too busy, but there were usually a few unsavoury characters hanging around the alcohol section, where many cheap imitations of branded beverages can be found.
I’m not a huge fan of the own-​brand goods such as the frozen pizzas (£1) and the range of chilled goods such as cheese is very limited. For fruit and veg you’d be much better off going to Aldi next door.
The good thing is that due to the round prices you’ll never end up with an annoying amount of change — no 1 or 2p coins to scrumple inside your receipt and forget about until you wash your trousers. Nice one Iceland.
