    That's fantastic news. I no longer have to be nice to my ex husband to get him to send me them over - yippeeeeeeeeee
    I'll be heading to Sainsbury's tomorrow. Does anyone know how much they are selling for???

    Thanks OP! I remember that episode of Graham Norton with Natalie Imbruglia on. It just isn't as good with Penguins. I don't know why, but it just doesn't work. Must buy Tim Tams and try this again. Haven't had a TT slam in ages!

    This is what got me hooked on them. I'm on a diet at the moment, so dare not buy any or else I will eat the whole packet.

    Home bargains have had them in before at cheap prices, not very often though.

    Anyone tried a Tim Tam Shooter with the caramel ones? As close to ultimate food pleasure as a person can get!!!!!

    Thanks OP - my brother is coming home from Australia next month with his new wife (they're getting married this Saturday) and this will be a big treat for them (and me if they sell the caramel ones!)

    Tim Tams have been in my Sainsburys for about a year now! Tesco used to stock them before that. What I want to know is where can I purchase VB? Asda used to sell it about 5 years ago - but not any more.

    I'm sure I saw VB in the Tesco extra near me a couple of weeks ago. Only noticed because I remember someone else on here was after it. Where do you live?

    Apparently Sainsbury's only have the normal chocolate ones in so may still have to pay a fortune to get my OH the caramel ones! :D

    tim tams are a lot lighter in texture than bourbons or penguins.
    A waist is a terrible thing to mind.
