One of the cheaper supermarkets is bim which you will find located in gunlukbasi great for milk,eggs,pasta,sugar,coffee in refil packs,cheap pop for the kids water too everything you will need really.
gunlukbasi will be about 7 mins on the dolmus for you.

Tansas is a short dolmus ride away more expensive but has some things you will recognise from the uk but pretty dam expensive their home brand label is ok and you will find more choice than bim. a little furter on down the road and you come to migros supermarket one of the biggest lots of choice but personally I think its bloomin expensive.

fruit and veg I would stick to the markets alot cheaper and alot fresher the tuesday market is in fethiye and the sunday market is in calis.

Dont forget when your on the milk counter Ayran is a yoghurt drink like lassi the indian one Sut is milk you dont want a nice cuppa with a salty yoghurt drink in it.:D 8)

Ok back on topic :D

There are a couple of larger supermarkets in Calis, one called Genpa not far from the aquapark and a "Bim" - but there are mini markets all over the place, you shouldn't be too far from one  :)
