    I've had Lily O'Brien chocs before and they are gorgeous (very luxurious and usually pretty expensive)

    This looks like a good deal to me - think I'll pick one up later on way home
  • Yes, I've had Lily O'Brien chocs before, very nice and a change from the Thorntons that often come with these offers.

    Last year Morrisons did an offer of champagne and Lily O Brien Chocolates for £15. I bought 6 lots and put away for my wedding. (And they stayed away for 3 months - massive feat of will power!). They were delicious and as said before a real change from Thorntons.

  • There were also some big boxes of Thorntons in my local Tesco yesterday for £5.99. Now all I have to do is drop very big hints to my OH.

    Looked at this yesterday and the chocs were in a tiny 90g box and looked a bit pathetic to be honest, If I gave it to my other half she would think it cost about £1.50 (definately not worth £2.99 imo) contain's 8 chocs, the Pink Sparkling Rose wine is probably okay though and the make is Villa Garducci.

    Similar to the Tesco Thorntons deal (mentioned above) is that Morrisons are selling a 410g box of Thorntons premium collection for £5 (better than half price from £10.76)
  • The chocolates are very nice. Have not drunk the wine yet, probably going to crack it open this evening.
