I buy my milk in Costco, 6 pints of full fat milk £1.69. 6 pints of semi skimmed £1.29! I think thats a fab price!
With a little one at 20 months we use lots of full fat milk, I encourage the 7 year old to have it too just to top up his calcium.Bringing up 2 handsome boys and 1 gorgeous girl the MSE way!Joseph born 19th December 2001Matthew born 8th August 2007Tara born 23rd January 20110 -
Our local Farmfoods in Southampton is currently doing 2 x 2 litres of full fat or semi-skimmed for £1.50. Bargain!:j0

that's what I get and it lasts me a week.My friend who lives in bexley heath said that farm foods are doing two four pintas for £3.00 but I don't have one that near to where I live so its Iceland for me
Are you sure that price is correct? Recently farmfoods did 2 x 2l (4pts) for £1.50 so that price would mean it has doubled in a week!:eek::hello: Hiya, I'm single mom, avid moneysaver and freecycler, sometimes :huh: but definatly

I buy Cravendale a I am single and hardly get through any milk at all, this type of milk allows me to not waste milk as it doesn't go off that quickly, for a family that goes through milk quickly I wouldn't bother with the premium price for this milk..
I use the Cravendale too. Money saving because I never go to the shop & just buy milk:o
We get through at least a litre a day & their is only two of us:cool:0 -
Another Cravendale user here too. There are only 2 of us now, but I think Cravendale would be too expensive for most families. As far as I am concerned, it is more about not wasting before it goes off. Agree with Mrs E I never go to the shops just for milk and come out spending more now as we always have milk in the fridge. I always check the price first on mysupermarket too as we have all the supermarkets within a couple of miles and I use them all depending on what is on offer in each when I am passing.0
