Market Basket. It has the best prices for the same things that the others charge more for. It only has about a dozen stores in this area but when the Boston Globe did a comparison of pricing among chains they came out best and other nationally-known ones came out for twice the price on a typical week's purchasing.
Same head of lettuce is usually 99cents that Albertson's charges $2.99 for, as an example. It also always has sale items that are very much below the other supermarkets (99 cent jars of peanut butter, etc)

For places other people here might've heard of -- Trader Joe's. I no longer live anywhere near one, and really miss it.
Their own-brand stuff was reliably good (reminiscent of 'President's Choice' stuff in Canada, but often better), something new and interesting was found on every visit, the stuff is fresh and well-priced, staff were always nice, and it was very vegetarian-friendly, without being off-putting to meat-and-potatoes types. By 'vegetarian-friendly' I mean stuff like frozen cheese enchiladas, too, not just a pile of depressing soy what-not. They carried the only edible veggie burgers I've ever had ('Dr Praeger's,' I think).
'Price Chopper' has been showing up here lately, and while their fresh stuff can kinda be given a pass, the prices for staples are fantastic.
The little local thing in Ottawa is a place called Boushey's, which, while expensive, has reliably good everything. Excellent take-away. Family/locally-owned, by people who clearly enjoy food.

In terms of quality alone:
1. Waitrose
2. M&S
3. Sainsbury's
4. Tesco
value for money:
1. Tesco
2. Sainsbury's
3. Waitrose
4. M&S
Sainsbury's then M & S have the widest range I feel but Wasitrose are probably more health conscious, and also have a good delivery service.

J. Sainsbury Alperton west London England. Nicely placed, friendly staff. Connected to public transport right by the door(no need to take the car if you are really local). Great selection of food and other stuff like household TV's Microwaves and other stuff, really great!

Central Market, wide variety of foods, especially vegetables & fruit, fantastic bakery. Whole Foods Market, cause it is where I can get the food I feed my cat.

I normally use Safeway because it's close. But for other things like fancier cheeses and ethnic stuff and a meat counter, I use Albertsons. It just depends on what I need and where I can get it from.

HEB in Texas. They have a vast variety of fruits and vegetables. They are remodeling their stores as HEB Plus to give competition to Walmart.

purchase the meals on the grocery keep which you like to order in a eating place. Cooking is rather undemanding a caveman or his spouse can do it.... ok my renowned food on the industry: Bone-in Rib eye steak, grilled medium uncommon and a baked potato

I love Costco. I love the owner of Costco even more. The owner of Costco only makes about $200,000 a year. The rest he gives to his employees.
