    Set of baking tins for 6.99 - rrp 19.99, same ones I bought in Tescos at Christmas for £15 (supposedly 29.99 rrp). Really worth a look as they are really thick metal and do not buckle like the cheap ones.

    I wouldnt have bothered looking in the box at that price, but having had and used them for months would really recommend them. Tempted to buy a spare but dont have the storage space.

    Not sure about all the other stores though the store I visited had the cadburys wafer bars 5p with an expired date of 31/01/06 this was for very bar I checked in the store.

    Noticed a deluxe clothes airer for £7.99, barbie lunck box sets with bag sandwich box and flask at £2.99 and Sunny delight kids drinks pack at 99p.

    They'll still be perfectly fine for ages yet though, I dunno why everyone worries so much about the best before dates!
