00:00Many supermarkets now offer their own budget brands to help shoppers save money. What do
00:07you kind of think of these cheaper alternatives? Are they just as good as the big brands?
00:11Great. We use quite a lot of them. We use quite a lot of them. It depends. It depends
00:15what they are. But yeah, we don't swear by them, but we use them quite often, certainly
00:21for essentials. Yeah.
00:22Are there any kind of items that you would only buy branded?
00:27Ketchup.
00:28Supermarket budget brands, I think if they help people eat healthy food and feed their
00:33kids and save some money, that can't be a bad thing. So yes, I eat budget brands. Absolutely.
00:39Because commodities like pasta, frankly, who cares? It's all the same, right?
00:44I don't eat an awful lot of meat. So if I buy meat, I do buy good quality meat. I'm
00:51quite happy getting cheaper tins and things like that. Yeah. And I do buy fresh veg.
