英國有高級和大眾超市,大部分都設有送貨服務,足不出戶都可以享用新鮮食品。而中高階層是高級超市的主要目標客戶,價格相對較高,但品質有保證,被譽為英國中產階級指標,大家也認為那裡有Waitrose,那裡就是商業區和高尚住宅區。

如果喜歡網上購物的朋友,不妨成為Amazon Prime的會員,每月£7.99 或每年£79,不但可享用Amazon Fresh超市即日送貨,以及數百萬種商品的翌日免運費送貨服務,更可免費觀看電影、音樂、書本等。

而中國超市亦遍佈倫敦,例如優西商城、和興、天天超市、龍鳳行、榮業行和七畝田網上超市等等,亞洲食品應有盡有。

不要以為歐洲物價一定很貴,英國農業尚算發達,可以自給自足,因此蔬菜和水果類別比香港更便宜,種類繁多而且非常新鮮。肉類方面,蘇格蘭牛肉尤其著名,您可以合理價錢買到上乘的牛扒和紅酒。而因為飲食文化的不同,雞胸和雞柳反而較雞翼和雞腿貴。英國四面環海,相比某些歐洲內陸國家,海鮮選擇亦比較豐富。

為了讓大家更具體了解兩地超市的差別,我們今天在香港百佳和英國Waitrose的網上商店揀選了一些基本食品和日用品作比較:

從上述的比較可以看到肉類、蔬果、奶製品都比香港便宜,甚至同一款的萬字醬油價格也略低。但生活用品,衛生紙及牙膏的價格就比香港稍高。

另外,就網上商店的貨品種類而言,香港百佳超市的新鮮肉類選擇不多,只有少量可供送貨,反觀英國超市網上商店的產品種類可說是跟實體店舖沒有分別,大家安坐家中收貨即可。
