    The big tesco in Abingdon, Oxfordshire had lots left today - on the left as you've walked in through the barrier gate things next to some half price mince pies! I would totally have missed this if I had walked in not knowing about the offer before hand!!

    Thanks OP, really chuffed with this freebie!!!!

    In case you can't get to a store/find the book, here's a link to a recipe for Chocolate Crusted Lemon Tart (from the book). Enjoy! :D

    I'm off to try my local store, will let you know if any available.

    Thanks for this! Tried 2 Tescos today and finally got it in the Beckton branch. Searched all round (would it not make sense to put it BY the Green & Blacks chocolate???), then asked at customer services and was told it's near the newspapers and books. Bought 2 lots as I'm sure it'll make a good pressie for someone. But I know I'll want one myself too...

    Any in Leamington, Warwick or Stratford?

    Is it just the Tesco Extra stores?
    I don't believe and I never did that two wrongs make a right

    Why would anyone think a book about chocolate from a chocolate company would be worth £15. Ask yourself if you saw this in a bookshop would you pay £15?

    Tesco Howichdon't seem to have it on either although it is an extra store. I had a good wander round but no joy, I'd really love this deal as I am a total chocaholic and keen on baking. let me know if anyone has succes in Howich pleaseeee.


    It's there now (or was 2 hours ago with quite a lot of stock). Cardboard stand right at the entrance (just near the takeaway sandwich fridge).

    Because the chocolate company would know what recipes truly work with their product.
    Because the book has been highly rated by others.
    Because it makes a very nice present.
