    LOL, I really must check things before I order!

    Ordered a fair few cans of kidney beans as we like our chilli's. Trouble in the cans are twice the size of normal cans so I have enough for life I think!

    Also the fruit teas. I ordered two boxes to keep me going. No I didn't - I ordered two CASES of six boxes - 12 boxes in total! Again I have enough for life!

    Also the treacle tarts I thought were small bite size nibbles - nope they are huge tarts!

    :rotfl:
    Loving Approved food though ;);)

    There is no label on the bottle I'm trying to find what it is (purple with a yellow solid piece at the bottom.) I opened it, no smell to speak off and definately not a drink. Not thick enough for bubble bath either...very strange. Looked through the whole site but nothing that looks like it on there.

    This is what I did- blessing in disguise as made a double amount and froze half and then it saved me when a family emergency hit this weekend.

    I'm thinking of leaving a note on the door to leave parcel by the bins and that I will accept in any condition so that I get it asap. Don't know if that will work.
    Dan called about replacing the parcel my daughter sent back because it was covered in sauce ( I would have kept it and got refunded but the dhl man advised her...) Anyway he says they are also packaging liquids more carefully in a zip bag, as well as the better box.:T
    Apporved foods and mse seems to me like a perfect match. A bunch of saving obsessed cheapskates who couldn't care less about best before dates meet service oriented business posting out cheap food. What could be more beautiful?:p

    I'm thinking next Sunday (14th) to make sure things are there before Xmas. We have a 3 day back log right now so it should give plenty of time for DHL to lose / damage any orders!

    Approvedfood... Any plans to introduce paypal payment in the future?


    Google checkout is the cheapest way of us taking a payment

    Sorry
