  • I posted the coupon codes for bigbrandsforless weeks ago and started a new thread and someone took it off. I contacted moneysaving expert and they said there was nothing they could do about it. The codes were for 200% free food and was current for 1 month, found it on moneysupermarket while looking for vouchers for food. I have used bigbrands several times and had only 1 broken box which was the couriers fault. I phoned BBFL and got a replacement with all shopping intact the next day. the only offers they have at the moment are in the clearance section on the home page where they have a lot of products on 100% and 200% can't find any codes yet but will keep looking

    Yes, they're yummy! I did have to halve the topping and freeze the rest, which I use on later batches (have ordered pizza mix from Big Brands for Less).
    I followed someone's good idea and added cooked bacon and olives to the pizza swirls, which worked very well but they don't need it. Also I let the mixture rest for a few minutes before rolling and slicing as it tends to shrink and lose shape. I did think it might be better to chill it for a while in case that helps it not to splodge!

    Approved foods customer service is really good as I found recently. I just don`t buy any of their liquid products now in glass or plastic as they seem to leak or break too often. Their goods are extremely good value but not the healthiest items I might add. I don`t order frequently

    i had a bit of a delay from customer sevices section after the last cafuffle but they've given me a discount code for my next order so I'm a happy bunny :EasterBun

    The state of the parcels seems to depend on which packer you get.

    I'm brewing up for my next order and I expect it will have glass jars in it. I'm going to request Russ B as the packer :D
