Do people still use a greengrocer?

[OOOSH YEAH]

I do nowadays. Always go in Grainger Market for me veg. Reason being is cost. Some of the stuff they’re practically giving it away. Yesterday I got...

6 Blood Oranges for £1
7 Avocados for £1
4 Punnets on blueberry for £1
4 punnets of blackberries for £1

Miles cheaper than the supermarkets.

I asked the greengrocer for a bag of onions...

He gave me one and said that's shallot.
