Shopped in the Iceland Overseas sore in Benissa yesterday and to say I was pleasantly surprised is an understatement.
Having just moved back to Spain after spending 12 months back in the UK I obviously hadn't done any shopping over here for a while but the prices here have come down by a fair sum over the past 12 months.
They also seem to be doing flyers now with money off coupons (I used €5 off €30 yesterday from a flyer posted to us).
I know some people do not like the Iceland attachment but they seem to be moving away a little from this as I spotted quite a large range of Waitrose products on offer.
Some of their deals which were on the flyer included;

8lt water €0.75
Roberts Bread €1.50
Heinz Soups €1

I've attached the flyer (obviously with my coupon taken out!)

hope this helps people as I know shopping especially for British goods is mentioned quite often on here and on other forums.

Welcome to the forums Richie, thats an unusual first post which some might interpret as spammy

How long have you lived in Benissa?

hi, moved to Benissa in 2010, went back to the Uk in December 2012 and stayed there for 12 months working at Shell in Ellesmere Port.
Moved back over at the beginning of this month!
Not spam just trying to help my fellow expats

The Overseas stores in Spain that sell Iceland products have ALWAYS sold Waitrose stuff as well, we used to go to the one in Torrevieja, and loved some of the Waitrose products. They have always been pretty good value for UK stuff, much cheaper than most of the small Brit stores, and the Spanish supermarkets.

Yes but I've also noticed that they have started to sell more products from other suppliers - including Waitrose.

I think they are starting to diversify a little. After all, the company "Overseas Food Ltd." isn't only Iceland.

I'm weel aware of that, which is why I called it Overseas and not Iceland.

I know you are It's just that the OP might not be as he refers to it as an "Iceland Overseas sore"

Does it sell something for that?

Funny men.......

Richie, did you notice if they sold Marmite ?

Yes they definitely do

Great, Mercadona, MasyMas and Carefour all have ex-pat sections but none have Marmite and that's the only thing we want

We have not seen any flyer near Altea,usually shop in Benidorm branch.
With a 'loyalty card' it would be good if we were to get any money off but we are left out !
