    I picked up a tin of these yesterday. There were dozens and dozens left ( and lots of hubbies on mobiles ringing wives to check how many they should buy:rotfl::rotfl:)

    Went in today and they had all gone:eek:.

    They also had lots of different blue cheeses with 75% off and brandy butter for 10p

    Never spotted the QS tins yesterday, but wanted to remind folks to have a quick peek in the booze section when looking for bargains. I got the Guylain liquer with chocs for £3.75 (down from £15!!) and also a mini Freixenet with 4 chocs for £1.50 - good til end Feb so will do for Valentines, possibly. Also a small tin with 2 Baileys minis for £1.50 and a similar sized tin with Famous Grouse.

    The Panettone had run out by the time I got to the store, but managed to get some 51p chocolate oranges and also the 330g container of choc orange segments was Manager's special for 87p in the store I visited :D . So loads of choccies, pushing the diet back to at least February :cool: .

    Sainsburys have reduced the large tins of Quality Street to £2.44

    No wonder, that tin has the crappiest sweets, i have to give away or throw away 3/4 of the tin.

    I nipped into Sainburys in Ashton under Lyne yesterday nad got a few packs of six mince pies for 29p each and got a couple of Taste the Difference boxes of chocs for £1.22 from the Prestwich branch today. Very happy with those bargains!

    RU kidding:eek:

    Toffee pennies, toffee finger, the green triangle, coconut eclair and not forgetting the purple one. These are the foundations on which all other variety tins have been built.

    I cannot however forgive them for those seriously annoying magic moments ads which still haunt me to this day :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
