No loose veg or fruit, which is most annoying. No Manx meat or eggs. looking a my usual staples there’s about 5 or 10% mark up than Douglas. nice clean store, need to get used to layout but not sure the size of the customer counter is warranted, we’re not that bad down here. can’t see me using it for my big shop, Douglas still for me and I won’t be dropping Robinsons on Cooil road any time soon, fruit, veg and meat will still be bought there. Done my weekly shop in Port Erin today rather than Lake Road where I usually go. The price was within 50p of what I paid for the same items as last week which is easily accounted for by different special offers... not sure where people getting 5 or 10% more from... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
