Do you have any Tecso clubcard or Sainsbury's nectar points? You could always redeem some against a box in either of those stores..?#5 - Save £12k in 20260

And how come when somebody on MSE asks a perfectly reasonable question about buying chocolate some A hole has to question their moral values?

Good for you sticking up for yourself. Those Cadbury Koko chocolates are lush!It's what is inside your head that matters in life - not what's outside your window

I have 2 grown-up daughters who don't remember our anniversary - your parents will be really pleased that you put thought (and money) into a gift.
If you can get to M&S, their Belgian chocs are pretty good, and I think £5 will get you a small but lovely box at Thornton's. They have bags of luxury truffles etc for about £2.60.0 -

I agree. My three kids are hard pushed to remember my birthday never mind our anniversary. I also agree that M and S Belgian chocolates are good and so are Thorntons.
It might be worth first considering whether they have a preference for milk or plain chocolate and then choosing accordingly. Belgian chocolates often contain a mixture of both so they might be a good choice.0 -

The Koko ones are £3 at Co-op, which isn't as good as Sainsbury's but you might find it easier to get to. They also have Roses/Heroes for £3, and various boxes of Lily O'Briens chocolates for less than £5.Murphy's No More Pies Club #209
