    With the little information you've provided, all I can suggest is give B&M bargains or Iceland a shot.

    If you are considering a rice dish I assume it isn't strictly a "finger" buffet, so how about coleslaw and potato salad, with some cherry tomatoes, to add a bit of "healthy" to the mix.

    Depends what shops you've got really, and any heating up facilities. Aldi spicy potato wedges are only about 69p for a 1kg bag and are yummy, but you'd need to be able to oven cook those before serving.

    Iceland have boxes of Cadbury's chocolate fingers for £1 instead of rrp £2, if you have a spare quid left over.
    :D I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe :D
