I've said it from the start, Joe Public are paying for the cost of living crisis twice... We have to struggle with our own bills going up, but also have to pay for the supermarkets and shops as well, as they've increased their prices to maintain their profits, rather than absorbing the extra costs like we have to.

[@stevenvamplew7145]

youre right lee, shops are putting their prices up no matter how much things cost. petrol prices should be down but the garages are not doing it either.its a feeding frenzy and its causing misery through greed

[@magnus9701]

just been to farmfoods Heinz minestrone soup 59p, Morrisons £1.69 for same , that tells you we are getting ripped off

[@petesinclair8753]

Spot on Mac, these supermarkets are all ripping us off, im so glad you have done this Video mate 👏👏👏

[@davidwinfield4948]

Totally Agree With You 💯👍

[@HFC786]

Definitely! Most places If they didn’t increase the price they’d still make profit! Then to make it worse they increase prices a lot more than they need too!

[@kevinhoughton9134]

I'm sick to the back teeth of places jumping on the band wagon because of "THE COST OF LIVING CRISIS", every single week when we do our shop items have jumped up in price, not just by a few pence but some 50 to 75 pence at a time. There should be a price cap it's getting totally ridiculous now, in the last 2 years our weekly bill has gone from £100 to £160 for the same food. 🤬

[@nickwilkinson2514]

They looked nice fish and chips LEE. But you are right a lot of places are ripping us off and blaming the cos of living crisis. 👍

[@Nickpaintbrush]

I think Morrisons are quite consistent with their quality, it is what it is, not pretentious and not bad really. 8/10

[@niged]

Its all about the money Lee. Of course all these businesses are taking thr opportunity to hike up prices. And they'll never come back down either, even if the cost of living does!

[@jimmyduggan359]

For £8.00 you can’t really complain. Looks ok to me.👍🏻

[@bobbyricketts1429]

My wife and I went to Tower fisheries today ,I had chicken 🐔and chips ,gravy. The wife had a black pudding dinner, both were £5.95 each,with a brew !!!! ,so £12 quid, absolutely delightful chap ,twice as dear down the road, say no more .

[@CupidStunt0001]

I use to work at the White Rose centre in Leeds, and about 6 of us use to go to Sainsburys for a breakfast once a week, it was always spot on & less than £5

[@colinjones2505]

I like The Morrisons. Is there a national shortage of teaspoons? Morrisons Chester never have any either. Staff are lovely. Place is clean tidy and run efficiently...apart from lack of teaspoons. Brekky is excellent generally, and good value, and served up quickly. 9/10. Those ketchup sachets do my 'swede' in. Normally give up and launch them. You talk the virtual exact things I think and mutter to myself. Luvin' it, chortle chuckle.

[@hassallman1]

i totally agree with you not just places to eat but supermarkets too. I used to love shopping at Iceland but they keep putting prices up not even a couple of pence but 25p - 50p a time - Its cheaper to shop at Asda or Tesco's now

[@petesinclair8753]

Totally agree with you they are the biggest culprits.

[@yusufsuleyman624]

Local Fish n Chips shops in London are charging £13 to £14 for a large cod and £11 to £12 for medium. Medium chips £4 and large nearly £6. Another thing I've noticed is supermarkets are reducing the pack size and still charge the same unit price. What a scam!!!😡

[@davidmarshall5596]

Mister Macmaster you were on top bloody form on this one Lee..! You're spot on about what us going on in the food industry at present! Some people are milking this current plight! This looked quite good value gor money & deserves a 8 /10...will be interesting to see what vlogs are upcoming with the emphasis on value for money from a member of the public perspective..keep up this great slant on reviews 👏 😊👌

[@jigsey.]

My local chippy here in cork, told me the price of fish as gone up due to the war in the Ukraine!!!!!!!

[@chrisayling3882]

Thank you for highlighting this.

[@janinehawkins9565]

Lee I totally concur, supermarkets, restaurants etc. Can't blame all the small businesses, some are struggling. The supermarket's and chains have something to answer for. Don't forget, if they still keep upping the prices we won't be able to consume 😮😮

[@weddison]

I totally agree with you were being ripped off they blamed the price of fuel but fuel prices has come down but prices are still high

[@S-rn6xn]

Lee, might be useful for you to let people know that if people go to Morrisons cafe and ‘ask for Ellen’, they receive a free portion of crumpets with butter and jam, until 13th august. Might help those who need it

[@juliefrost8079]

We’re definitely being ripped off - costs are increasing while portion sizes are getting smaller! My friend posted a photo of half a dozen onion rings with a bit of mayonnaise she was served up today in Cornwall, no salad either, for £9.75! I’ve pretty much stopped having a takeaway coffee as a treat, can’t justify paying a fiver for a drink, so I get good ground coffee and make my own!

[@hongk0ngfu3y]

to many places now give you a fish thats looks like its a child or pensioner portion. Micheal Douglas in falling down has the rite idea 😂

[@highlander9751]

I went to the pub the other day 2 mains 2 desserts bottle of wine and 2 coffee's £84 and they wonder why pubs are shutting all over the country

[@harryc560]

Yes Lee and the large food supermarkets made a fortune during the Lock Down as it was the only place people could leave their homes for Also their prices are going up weekly not by pennies but up to 50 percent and more and strangely most of the increasing by the same margin. That’s my rant for the day Lee and congratulations Morrison I would have given them a 10

[@billmagowan1492]

Yes deffo all the big retail companies are taking the p big time as fuel/delivery prices have decreased yet food prices are increasing weekly…..basic economics tells you that’s not right….time for everybody to cut back and hurt these b’s in their profits…. And you weren’t ranting Lee, you’re a consumer like the rest of us, entitled to your opinion as you’re only saying what the rest of us are!

[@steviekeane]

I've had fish and chip from there 4 or 5 times and it's very consistent. Amazing value .

[@a1harrogate]

The lack of vinegar is 💯% down to cafe management, no excuses of blaming the staff. But everything else there was spot on, price considered 👌

[@jasonallen9208]

I like the idea of you focusing more on VFM, Lee. I've been saying for a long time the supermarkets especially, are keeping prices artificially high. I do sympathise for small businesses though whose costs are probably going through the roof.

[@chrispiggott698]

Lee I agree with you the company's that make the stuff want there pound of flesh 8.8

[@Seasidesurfer]

Hi Lee. Well perhaps a little late to the party as far as I am concerned but great to hear your sound advice, which was backed up this morning by GB news that we ARE bing ripped off. I have personally thought this for a couple of months now as the more it became the focus of the mainstream news the more suspicious I became, so I had taken the attitude and told all who would listen to resist, vote with your feet, sacrifice where you think you ar being ripped off and just stop buying those items or going to that store. I hope with the following you have, you can raise the profile of this passive resistance which will effect and reduce prices as the only place to hit big business is in their pocket, in fact ANY business, as they need our custom. Those of us who are of the generation that think for ourselves and are not comfortable with being controlled must set an example and demonstrate there is power in the pound in our pockets and we have choices. You do such a good job leading the resistance to the EV project, this is another as you have identified where there is an injustice and an awakening to be had. Thanks for your work. 8/10 too for the food but the price needs to be more affordable, then we buy more, then we employ more, then we get the country to start to recover; and not just financially but in that the people see they recover their power and have the power and will not be lions led by donkeys in the future.

[@Liberty-wo2iy]

That's fun, Lee. For the very first time, our scores matched exactly...!!

[@carolmoore4202]

20yrs ago my daughter worked at morrisons on the deli while she was at college. She said at the time people that weren't very hygienic were put in the cafe kitchens. It put me of morrisons cafe ever since.

[@Mick_On_The_Moor]

You get a lot of fish at Morrisons. Im gonna go to my local Morrisons today!!! Fantastic value for money compared to other places

[@michaelwalton4118]

Looked great for the money and a pot of tea. Great value. 👍

[@philliphopkins6903]

Hi Lee, Absolutely brilliant vid again. Your spot on ,fair play to Morrison's. I think they are tapping into future customer.....good affordable food ..You'll keep going back.. Totally agree, the big boys are cashing in on hardship and necessity. I'd rather go to a Michael Barrymore pool party than eat at Sainsbury's...... So expensive. Tesco failed in the States , wonder why? Morrisons do good deal for kids , not the Summer holidays are here. These value for money vids are Brilliant. 👍

[@Swimmingforlife.]

Hi Lee You may find this a bit trivial, and so might other subscribers who may read this, sorry in advance. As you know I’m an old man of 70 but I’m still a bit partial to a wee bag of Maynard’s/Bassett’s jelly babies 190g bag. Sadly most of the supermarkets are charging £1.50p per bag, I asked the manager at my local Tesco how the local shops all around where I live can sell them for £1, I am still waiting on an answer. My nearest Morrisons do a lovely fish and chips, no mushy peas but you do get garden peas. Yes you are right about the rich getting richer, supermarkets screwing us for fuel, food and yes, my jelly babies😂. Great video again Lee, I am a subscriber but I don’t always comment. Kind regards Lee, Johnny

[@mrichards55]

Feargal Sharkey once sang that a good heart these days is hard to find. Well now good value these days is hard to find.

[@kevinprescot3591]

We are from Mansfield Woodhouse but have lived in Brisbane Australia for the last 40 years .my wife’s face lit up when you said “Ay up me duck” .she wished you had shown more of the drive to and from Morrisons.. did that used to be the Co-op? For the fish and chips 8/10

[@nikunjintwala1301]

Another brilliant video keep up the fantastic content ❤

[@lincolncityful1]

Good watch Lee, we were only talking about the price of Chips earlier especially when a Bag Of Tates is £8 in Lincolnshire

[@ianchristopherson1973]

Great vid mate, we are geting ripped off left right and centre, was in Sainsbury before, everything was priced realistically if you had a nectar card, the nectar card price was the price we should really be paying, not the i flated fake price, as for the Cafes, chippys and pubs who take the pi$$ with price increases they get no more off me, i just dont go anymore or i dont go as often.

[@jasondyer811]

I think your spot on with what you said at the beginning Lee.

[@H3len50]

My wee mum use to put the packets in her pockets as well. Months after she passed we found salt, pepper, wet wipes.....you name in it in her bag, jackets, drawers. Made me laugh at the time and still does. She also did the throw it over your shoulder with the salt as well.

[@knifedbyakangaroo]

to address the vinegar situation as someone who works in the same job . we have had the same situation but with ketchup you see once we have ran out of certian items we are not allowed to just get some of the supermarket floor as the igredients can be different for both , and we have to follow a strict list of things we can have due to allergerns etc. so that might be the reason they had no vinegar

[@adztaylor2277]

I have had the Fish & chips in Morrisons quit a few times. Staff has always been great, food is always ok, tables have been dirty sometimes. Found myself self cleaning tables before we sit down. As for the milk, sugar, and seasoning packets, they have always run out lol. You found the same thing we have a few times, it is share the vinegar and sauce bottle between tables. I ask why?, just like you did. These small things that are not attended too take away from a much better food experience. All the best bud, we live in hope for improvements, c'mon Morrisons, easy to sort out. 8/10

[@johnvoysey4492]

Another good One Lee, as always excellent review and camera work

[@queendevonia]

I agree. My takeaway used to be like £15 for two of us to grab a decent meal, now it's at least £25. More reason to sack it off though to be fair but when you want something quick and don't want to cook that is why we like to choose one but it's so expensive. I understand they need to cover costs but I do feel like a lot of these businesses are definitely using COL as an excuse

[@queendevonia]

Additionally, we live in a tourist town in the South West near Exeter. So unfortunately us locals end up paying tourist prices too

[@allthingsdougedebordeaux3790]

I agree that many restaurants are using cost of living to bump up prices far higher than is really just. I’m in particular focusing on the large chains which buy in bulk and get big discounts already off the suppliers. I’m even more frustrated when you now pay a fortune to eat out and the food is below par and leaves you walking out of the restaurant after a meal feeling ripped off and deflated.

[@suzi-ann1962]

Can I say if you are ever in Chapel St Leonards please visit the Marina chippy . It was recommended to us whilst on a recent break to Skegness. Argh, another story. But can highly recommend The Marina, with curry to die for and I'm not a curry lover . Enjoy , glad to see you back. 😊

[@susiewatts1982]

I'm always Like 👍 that blue and white shirt on you Lee and your Subscribers are going up and up now , Well Done mate Xx

[@robtitheridge9708]

well Lee i am going to give it 9/10 based on what we have to pay around here.nearest Morrisins 13 miles away.

[@thecornedbeefcouncil9792]

That looked a lot better than I thought it would Maclad

[@robertofraser101]

Just subbed enjoyed 2nd video 1st one was about a car 🚗 electric sorry about price fall my brother lost a fortune too anyway fish n chips looked great I wasn't expecting 2 bits I would be stuffed so yes great value thanks look forward too more videos #3rd

[@michaelcurtis17]

You know what..I always forget about supermarket cafes...might have to go my morrisons in Scarborough and try that fish and chips out

[@Thankuxxx]

A 9/10 for me mushy peas all the way for sure! Great videos tho as always definitely keeps a smile on my face. Have a great evening.

[@hilux4996]

Hi Lee. Maybe it's just here in North Wales, but fish and chip shops have gone much more expensive over the last two or three years. They used to be a quick economical meal, for example, say sausage, chips and gravy for about £3, same thing now would be closer to £6. A Chinese takeaway used to be a treat for us, maybe once a month, but they have NOT upped their prices so much, maybe a portion of chips has gone from about £1 to £1.20 for instance, plus the portion size means left overs for the next day. Probably why chippies here are quiet and Chinese takeaways always seem to be busy. Greed, taking advantage and shooting themselves in the foot springs to mind.

[@kerriepearson2107]

It looks delicious Lee I have never tryed Morrisons fish and chips we have a Morrisons cafe here where I live in Blackpool I will have to give a try one day have a good week Lee from Kerrie 👍🐟🍟😋

[@nigelbrookes3034]

Yes Lee I think Sainsbury’s have closed all cafeterias in their shops. Ours near me at Crystal Peaks Sheffield closed in April 2022. It is opening as GREGGS in September 2023.

[@liamwoz1861]

Thanks to you my tea budget has increased! Love Yorkshire Tea and won’t drink anything else nowadays

[@TheMacMaster]

:) Yorkshire!

[@karengalley3669]

Looks really nice even if the chips were frozen. Like the shirt you’re wearing too, different from your usual merch tops.

[@shirleysmith1713]

Fish looked very good 👍🏻 . Shame about the garden peas , should have been mushy peas. Thanks for showing lee👍🏻 ( as for the vinegar what a joke) 😂

[@carolinesharples]

I think your followers would like to know how you’re getting on with the health scare that you had recently. It was quite shocking what you went through and we were all there with you when you were going through it but we haven’t been given an update as yet and we would really like to know how you are doing 🥰

[@TheMacMaster]

Hi. Thank you. I'm feeling absolutely on top of the world now. I was drinking way too much and my liver was enlarged. I haven't touched a drop of alcohol now since I was in the USA. My liver has reduced in size. I'm sleeping way better. It's literally turned my life around. Shoes how poisonous alcohol really is. Even went for a run the other day with my little boy on his bike. ❤️🕶️

[@BlackMassala]

Lee, I could not agree any more about the price increases. Yes we all know there is an inflation crisis so we should expect an in-line with inflation increase in every day things. However, I strongly believe that businesses are adding their own sheer greed tax on top of an already grim situation. The greed crisis that exists now is a greater problem than the inflation crisis in my strong opinion.

[@C64Queeg500]

Hey Mac, to be honest that fish dinner looks pretty good. 8/10. We've never had a poor breakfast in our local Morrisons here in South Cumbria. A few things have gone wrong but the staff are brilliant. Stay sane my friend.

[@markbotham8885]

Hi, Lee, I get where you are coming from I do a local food teaser group down in Stockport and most of the venues have put their prices up even though some are still doing good offers like 2 fish and chips for £10.00 on a Monday and Tuesday like Salty towers in Stockport who you reviewed a couple of months back you have got to take into account as well how many customers are going in there after your video or a review probably loads of customers and lots of new ones as well some venues I have stumbled across recently well their prices are criminal keep up the sterling work with the videos , Mark the Stockport food teaser

[@ianmooney4416]

Our Sainsburys' cafe became a Starbucks years ago. Then was replaced by the smallest Argos concession in the world!

[@steviekeane]

Mm mm. We get mushy peas at stavely chesterfield. The fish are bang on . Definitely cod too . Teas morrisons own . I sometimes put another tea bag in out of one of other pots lol. 9 out of ten for me . They are better than any I've had from our chippys .

[@geordieb3959]

Not right down South mate you're looking at £12 upwards with soggy batter.and flat thin small fish portion. Just a rip off .

[@user-xh3lz9xt4l]

Its not just the price going up but its also the portion size getting smaller

[@lynnerowlands5052]

Hey hun that fish looks fabulous and the batter looks very crispy and the fish is lovely and white. Chips looks good to. Peas look abit hard.. My score is 9.9 xx

[@lynnerowlands5052]

Hey hun for my weekly shopping now costs me £ 110 now at one time it used to be £80 now it's stupid. As the food has gone up things are going smaller. And we are paying more for less xxx

[@paulinegiles5757]

Hello Lee. The vinegar. The germs that will be spread on that bottle. No wonder peeps get sick and blame the food. You were very hyper today, had you consumed a Costa. Anyway the fish looked really nice as did the chips. Peas, no. I saw a picture of sausage chips and mushy peas. I agree with you, milk in a cola cup, bad news. Im going to score the fish and chips 7. The rest of the debacle 2. Time 1.40pm😊

[@user-lg3ol7dn3p]

10 of 10 from what I could see and hope that you enjoyed.

[@EvilSie]

Not bad for the price and Morrisons does appear to be making the effort to keeping things cheap (well their own brand stuff anyway). Tetleys is a weak insipid tea. Need 2 bags of it to get proper taste when one bag of Yorkshire does the trick.

[@plomos0127]

Got to say in this day and age its pretty good value for money, i had the same experience at the morley store no hp brown sauce available whatsoever, all they had to do was go upstairs into the store where theres selves full of the stuff..very odd, good vid Lee 8.5 from me 👍

[@davidwatson22]

An 8 is about right. I still rate Morrisons cafe over the other super markets . I had a breakfast at a Tesco's soon time ago, 40 min wait for something that was not edible, I left it and walked out will never use a Tesco's cafe again.. went to Morrisons a few weeks ago for a cooked roast chicken dinner . They came over saying they had ran out so had to alter to beef . The amount on the plate looked less than it use to be pre 2019 but still very nice plate of food at a reasonable price

[@snatch709]

Sounds a good move looking at prices, as I agree some places are ripping us off, looking forward to the new slant on your reviews

[@pauldonnelly4661]

May I recommend the Golden goose in Redditch, a brilliant carvery, fantastic prices, and people queuing round the block. We we went on a Sunday, and Monday and Tuesday looking good. The quality of food is excellent. Ten out of ten.

[@coventrycitykid]

At the Sainsbury in Hinckley, the cafe has been replaced with the Restaurant Hub which sells items from Cafe Carluccio's, Harry Ramsdens and Ed's Easy Diner range. Pretty good food as well to be fair. In fact I had the Ed's burger and fries earlier today. Love your video's too mate

[@myfyrmadocjones]

Yay - real peas! Fish and chips looked good to me. Looked like they gave you 2 fish. Looks like a 10 to me on appearance only. Well priced too.

[@dougedwardsyachts]

We had Fish n Chips n mushy pea’s in our local Pub last week. They give the option of garden pea’s too if you prefer. Tartare, wedge of lemon and a bottle of vinegar with a loose top on so you have to be careful. £14.50!

[@clairemorrallee5625]

I agree, 8 too. But I also agree about the vinegar. I hate going up to other tables and asking for something. It's awkward

[@chrispayne523]

Both of our Sainsbury's Cafes have closed, one has reopened as a Starbucks. One of our Morrisons cafes have also closed.

[@davidhotchkiss-ms5fd]

Hi I do go into morrisons cafe with my daughter when I go shopping ,we do try to budget and I usually have a cheese tostie and a portion of chips to share and a pot of tea, which is reasonably priced but lately they have put the sauce sachets behind the counter as you get charged extra for them ,and lately the coffee machine has been out of order for a few weeks with no explanation or alternative so I have to have juice ,also like you said the tables have been dirty and if you say anything they say not enough staff to cover . But normally I like the food .cheers

[@moalf5088]

I commented a while back that I never had Yorkshire tea since it’s not in our stores that I ever noticed. I bought a box of 20 bags at $3.95. Didn’t like the tea at first but I love it now. I had the Gold version. Never tried the Red version. Which do you drink? Have you tried the decaf? If so, how is the decaf? I need to buy a new box fast. Only 4 teabags left. Bought them on Amazon. Actual, the red cost more on Amazon.

[@peterwoad8087]

That looked pretty good...especially for a supermarket cafe where you wouldnt expect too much. I agree 8/10 and I'm a much tougher marker than you Lee.

[@michaelwhiles5282]

Long ago I was a Test Shopper paid by Asda to check staff performance but mainly their food service especially their Fish and Chips - all true - both were always pretty good b😎

[@jglasernyc]

I would agree on the meal. Unfortunately, rising food costs don't equal cost of living rises in pay but I agree that we are being taken advantage of.

[@andrewbailey3920]

Well said. I appreciate your truth

[@jimgibbins6161]

Tbh, that looked nice, Morrisons is one of the better supermarket cafes

[@hanneman777]

Last time I went Morrisons I ordered fish and chips and the fish looked like it had brought half the sea with it was that watery.

[@petetazflies]

Got to say I will be visiting Morrisons soon as that looked great value for money that fish looked plentiful and not like most others where theres more batter than fish 😊💰 👍🏻

[@ballysillanallotment-man5793]

Totally agree with you lee after a budget or price of oil goes up the petrol stations put the price up right away even though their storage tanks are filled with old price fuel and then take months and months to come down and for the meal as it was a supermarket café it looked tasty 8/10

[@richardgelber2740]

The price of oil is all about the amount of supply allowed by the producers and nothing to do with the cost of production or the cost of oil that was purchased earlier and now being stored.

[@TinWhistleTV]

when you are free and in London, I will gladly buy you some Pie, Mash and Liquor my friend. I thought at first glimpse your water bottle was a fire extinguisher hehehe.

[@lesleyfarrington4809]

Me too 😅

[@barriewilliams4526]

Not bad, I give em a 7.79999999 I rarely eat out these days as it is just too expensive. If we have a pub meal, and a couple of drinks for the wife and I in the area we live, we have to think about taking out a mortgage. It's not just food places that are ripping us off, it's the majority of businesses, particularly the bigger ones. Just had a quote for my house insurance, they want 225% more than I paid last year, and this is from the well-known company that looks after older folk.

[@clementsphil]

Our local Sainsburys closed their cafe more than a year ago. The quality had been going downhill well before Covid - wafer thin bacon etc - but it never really survived lockdown

[@richardgetlevog3123]

Hi Lee. I'm a few weeks behind with your videos as I've been away so playing catch up. I thought those fish and chips looked nice for the price and I find the food at morrisons cafes much better than the others. I think 8/10 was a fair score for that so I'll go the same. With regards to the vinegar and milk situation. That's just crazy. As you say, it's a supermarket so just get some off the shelves. I'm guessing you never got a pot of milk jug could be to do with a lack of staff that wash up in the kitchen? Only thing I can thing of lol. I wholeheartedly agree with you about these companies using the cost of living crisis excuse to whack their prices up. Costs should be down as they hardly have any staff these days to pay wages, a reason being these self-checkout services. We know where all the moneys going and it's in the pockets of the suits upstairs. Madness. Great review mate and will definitely catch up again with all the others. Thanks for sharing as always 🙂👍

[@lynnehughes7631]

I agree alot of supermarkets are profitering. I'm always having a moan when I go shopping . Even lidl and aldi are expensive now . Heron foods ..don't get me started with them ! Raised the price of there toilet roll 18 pack from £2.95 to £5.49 . 😡😡

[@alibolla]

We go to a pub that does the Best Fish & Chips. It's called The Goose and Gander in Blackrod Bolton, try it Lee if you fancy a ride out, not open Mondays I don't think. 😉

[@andrewjones4773]

Some weeks they have any two main meals with a free hot drink for only £9.99 + 1200 points. Which is worth £1.20.

[@alantremethick663]

You did right to avoid Asda café I had the worst steak pie and chips ever there. You're correct about prices being increase without justification, I'm still paying about the same for spuds and frozen Haddock as I was last couple of years, some increase due to oil and fuel but not to the amount prices have gone up, Some West Yorkshire fish shops £7 or less for fish and chips and others £9 plus.
