Since we don't have any of those supermarkets here in the UK, I just had to vote for 'Other' .
Most of our shopping is done at Morrison's (because it's nearest), Sainsbury's (because it's biggest), or Marks & Spencer (because it's nicest). All three are attractive for different reasons, so it really depends what we're in the mood for!

Haven't heard of any of those. The world is a different place here I suppose.

Costco or IKEA. Can't decide. Easily spent $5000 this year between them.

I didn't know you guys had Costco in Australia @ s3_gunzel . We love it here. Easily one of the better supermarkets around here.

There are surprisingly few Costcos in Australia, but they're amazing.

Yeah, we don't have a lot of the US supermarkets over here. We used to have Safeway, but they closed their UK operations in 2005, and I'm not even sure it was the same company as the US one anyway.
As far as I'm aware, the only one that even operates over here is Walmart (they bought Asda about 20 years ago, but they never re-branded their stores as Walmart: they're still trading under the Asda name)

YO SAVE-A-LOT! That was basically the only place my mom shopped when I was a kid. Good stuff.

Then there are smaller ones like IGA and Aldi.
My favorite is IGA because it's cheap and it has all I need.
You'll never see this but idk what world you live in where IGA is cheap lol.
Oh, the upside down world.

It sucks you don't have one where you live. The one place I wish we had here was Starbucks. I do like our Sheetz though.

That's cool, at least, if there are other options. Always good to giver others a chance I suppose.

We do have Mr. Donut as well as Sheetz. You can also get certain coffee drinks at McDonalds and Burger King.
