There's an ASDA 5 minutes away from Oadby! Check on the map in "The essential guide to starting at leicester" on page 19, on London road to the right of Digby Hall.

And what is wrong with Morrisons? I LOVE MORRISONS! Only if it wasnt 40 minutes away from where I'll be staying :frown:. ASDA will do.

Wow you've been a saviour tonight, answering all my questions. Thanks!

I dont like Morrisons because the one thats closest to me stinks and not just a little bit it really smells. Its a cross between sewage, rotting flesh and hospitals :frown:

I don't think I have received the essential guide yet. Can anyone send me an online link to the guide?

I dont know if theres an online .pdf version of the booklet. The only thing I can suggest is the uni's website: http://www.le.ac.uk/ua/rs/

i can assure u the morrisons in leicester doesnt smell bad.

Asda is not five minutes away, it is miles away! There is however a shuttle bus running a few times a week, details are on the notice board @ Opal.
City centre has a Sainsburys, Somerfield. Subway just next door.

Yeah Asda is miles away from Opal court, 5 mins away from the catered halls though.

The Morrisons in Leicester doesn't smell, I don't think. I defy anyone to say that the Morrisons 'The Best' fruit scones aren't the best scones ever haha, their cheese twists are astounding too. :smile:

Asda food is terrible. Although i am not sure about Morrisons and shrink wraping the peppers... wasteful.

Thats why I was replying to lousidotcom's post, which clearly states with red that the ASDA is closer to OADBY where she will be living from october.
