i've used a couple of times (when i need to make a big shopping) and works fine. Not too good, not too bad. :)

w use it at work all the time, love it. I've used it personally once too- super easy, quite handy- though I wouldn't advise buying your deli meats from there. for some reason when we have they hardly last two days- waste of money. Otherwise its a great site!

Yeh,I definetly wouldnt be buying meats,cheese etc,and generally things you need to see before you buy.

The new buses are I think €2.20 for a day ticket,so for an extra few euros its better to get the shopping delivered,especially as I wouldnt be able to take that much on a a bus with me.

I've not tried that one but there are plenty of lager style beers available in the supermarkets for around that price and to my taste they are pretty nasty...but I'm not a huge lager drinker, more of a beer/bitter/ale drinker myself. Having said that Cisk at about €1 a can in supermarkets is pretty good value as it's a good lager imo. All personal taste though.

When I want a drink to savour and enjoy I buy Beligan Beers for about €3 a bottle so that shows you where I am at (yes, a beer snob!)

I have to agree with Tim, I've tried a few cans of various cheap Dutch lagers and some of them are awful. Even the Skol needs a good dash of lemonade to make it palatable. You'll find a great selection of very cheap wine available too, we're talking 70p a bottle, and it handily doubles up as a very effective nail-varnish remover.

I haven't found a supplier of Buckie yet, but I'll let you know if I do. ;)

I haven't used maltasupermarket.com yet, but I've used Smart's online shopping a few times and found the service to be quite good.

PAVI also do deliveries but you need an ID card before you can register, and it took ages to get my account set up with them.
