Found this completely unscientific review on line. It is a quiet sunday morning here in Inversneckie, so there are few distractions.
What is the hierarchy of French supermarkets? I've always considered Carrefour to be best and Super U worst.
It depends what criteria you use. We like to shop for things we can't find in the UK in places that are as "French" as possible, but at the keenest prices we can find. Our list goes like this:
1 Auchan For the total, gobsmacking hypermarket experience. Wide aisles, huge selection and cheap fuel. I especially like the mini-clouds of iced water they spray over the fresh fish and vegetables, and the cheese counter the size of the Ark Royal.
2 Leader Price Best of the cheapies: basic, no-frills shopping, including giant jars of herbs and £7-a-litre rye whiskey.
3 Carrefour A bit ordinary, but since they took over Champion they seem to have a more diverse range of goodies. The only place we know that sells Aligot in packets. Cheap fuel, too.
4 Intermarché A bit run down now, but always in useful, easily accessible places. It also has cheap fuel, and Merlot at £1.50 a litre!
5 Géant Casino Big and very French, but doesn't compare with Auchan.
6 E Leclerc Basically a mega-Sainsbury's, so very clean, with good, middle-of-the-road quality at mid-range prices, but hardly a continental experience.
7 Super U Chaotic, much too cluttered, but even cheaper fuel prices.
8= Netto In France the low-cost end of Intermarché; plus Simply, Ed and Atac, the local-stores part of Auchan.
