    The big boxes of chocolates look great too. My parents say they are exceptionally good!
    We got some of the crunchy truffles and I have to say they are good. Damn it!

    I ordered 40 packs of the jerky as I know I love it.
    imagine my surprise when I not only got a few extra ones but they are not out of date until September!

    Opaque - please don't taunt me with your 40 packs of beef jerky! We are now all extremely jealous!:D

    I just made another order :P
    It's a dangerous addiction.
    Mainly sweets. Odd thing is that I don't eat sweets, they're for people at work! We've got a massive review next week so we can celebrate afterwards.

    Just about to put in an order- my first for a few weeks :o after a few too many last month, when I see that there are new Bakin Boys king size choc cupkakes in at 20 for £1, and lemon standard size 30 for £1, 2 boxes each please...
  • does anyone know how quick orders are being dispatched at the moment. I placed an order last night with the alternative courier so i won't get any tracking nad just wanted an idea of when it might be here so I can try and be in. My last order a couple of weeks ago was a 3 day turnaround. Thanks

    I ordered Tuesday, parcel just delivered by DHL. No delivery e-mail. Really pleased as fast delivery and everything well packed and in good condition. Just munching on Jelly beans, I think I'll have to hide these they are delicious. Packets of rosemary and olive pretzels are huge!!!

    No!!!There is loads more on the site today- just after I put an order in. A 3kg sack of jelly babies? Felix roasted cat food cans? Its too cruel.
    I am not sure if the Felix is worth getting- it is £1 cheaper than asda,at £2.50, but it is heavy, and sometimes on 2 for £5 offers. Anyone good at maths advise me? My cats do like it, but is ita bargain?
