So some dodgy character has probably ripped off UKoffer and submitted it as their own template. After all, it is a successful site, so is tempting for some to try and replicate it.<br/><br/>Back to mysupermaket - it is not a good looking site at all. The functionality is ok, but in todays online world, if the site does not look good, people simply won't use it. Getting good PR is very expensive. It seems crazy that they have spent all this money and time on PR when the site does not work properly in Firefox or IE and it looks damn ugly!

Supermarkets are cut throat on pricing as it is.

As a result, the saving of a few pennies here and there will make little difference to the bottom line for consumers.

I’m not convinced about the whole online grocery shopping thing anyway.

I used to do it with Waitrose, but in the end decided it was easier to just go to the shop so I could make my own selections and also not have to wait around for the delivery.

However, I’m sure it’ll make some money as it must be really cheap to run.
