#don't quote me on this but i think i got my normal food at sainsbury's and my eating disorder food at tesco

Sainsburys is the shit, when I’m home i get my mum to drive me to the big one so i can walk around the whole thing at like 9pm on a thursday when it’s quiet. it’s an instant anxiety killer i love it so much (it is a bit expensive tho tbf)

i LOVE being at grocery stores late.... in finals week my friend(s) and i used to go to winco (think costco but not everything is bulk and everyone can go there and mostly just food, closest to asda i think as far as main stores go but better in every way) which is open 24/7 at like one in the morning and just walk around and buy like. bulk dispenser candy and junk food and fruit and stuff and then go to the library and study jam. Good times. miss that. i actually no longer stan winco because they were not providing masks for their employees and/or requiring them to be worn and so i no longer shop there (it doesn't exist where i've moved to but still) but for a long time they were the Best.

and yeah Sainsbury's IS spendier I hear but my secret is that as an American I have no idea what food in the UK should cost and it is all very, very inexpensive compared to where i'm from in the US even at like. waitrose. so! but last summer on my dance course i got most of my food at the corner sainsbury's or the corner tesco. they were directly opposite each other on the street.
