There is a removal company in the UK, Andover that do a Tesco run to Portugal weekly to Albefeira.
You just have to go and collect it from the depot. Not really worth it if you live too far from Albefeira.
You do an on-line order as normal and make your address their address so your order is delivered to Andover. You can only order non-perishables. Every couple of months they do a fresh food run.
I think it's about €10 for the delivery charge.

I stand to be corrected on this but this is what a friend on mine told me.

There is a guy in Montes de Alvor doing the same thing he advertises in Resident and News he does it on a weekly basis.
Also there is a shop in Algoz who stock certain items and have a website where you can order "goodies" if you so desire. But with many of the new Hypermarkets and even the odd Alisuper now stocking many "foreign" imports there is really not that much to miss about "British" food!
