    Lots of mishape bars in Bletchley yesterday - I chose wisely and got minimum marzipan and maximum coffee/lemon and the other chocie one.

    So - were you the lady behind me who also had a feel of several bags before making her choice?

    I've just used my second pack of "Wash and Dye" which costs £2.99 at HB. I've brought back to life 2 pairs of black faded linen pants and 2 pairs of scruffy faded jeans. The stuff is great - throw it in the washer with the garments, wash at 40, then wash again at 40 et voila - new looking clothes. Unfortunately it only comes in black.

    Sunderland today no bears/rabbits at all :(
    Got my first bag of misshapes never even seen them before, felt obliged to have a good fondle, but as I have no idea what any flavour feels like chose a bag randomly 45% marzipan-yuk! 45% Turkish delight-yuk! 10% Lemon mousse-yum! won't both again though

    I love marzipan and Turkish delight, not tried these misshapes, are these yuk because the are just horrible or because you simply don't like either marzipan orTurkish delight?

    I might give them a try if it's just because you don't like marzipan or Turkish delight.

    I tried the premium misshapes and they were rank, certainly not what I call premium and not even worth 1p - or 0p!
    It's PAC not PAC Code, it's MAC not MAC Code, it's PIN not PIN Number, it's ATM not ATM Machine, it's LCD not LCD Display, it's DVD not DVD disc... It's no one not noone, It's a lot not alot, It's got not gotten... Panini is the plural of panino - there is no S!!

    For me, I don't like the Turkish Delight or the Marzipan (luckily OH likes one, and #1 son likes the other, so no money wasted most of the time)

    Agree 100% about the 'premium' mishapes (if you mean the wrapped ones in the foil bags) totally blurgh! Infact, I think I've still got some left after 6 weeks - unheard of!
