    Has anybody ordered those 60 gramme packs of ground coffee? If you haven't and you prefer ground coffee to instanto you should order some right away. At 12 pence a pouch it works out at £2 a kilo. The cheapest supermarket stuff is Lidl's at £6 a kilo and one of my local pound shops is selling has some at £4. I'm currently awash with the stuff and I'm sorry now that I didn't order more. I know that once I have enough spends to place another order they'll be out of stock.

  • Our first order from Approved Foods has just arrived. I'll wait until the children have gone to bed to unpack it but I'm so excited and the children are having a great time climbing onto and jumping off the boxes!

    Ordered things we would normally buy cheaply from Lidl/Asda, but still managed to make great savings. I was thinking I'd trimmed the grocery spend as much as I could until I found this site, now I can make more savings so thanks to all who have mentioned it.

    I've been looking for the lucky boxes but haven't seen them - could someone tell me where on the site they're normally advertised if they have them in stock?

    Thanks

    the lucky boxes come and go very quickly. they have no set time to be online. they are put online when they have been filled by the packers.

    either put "lucky" in the search box, or look in the latest products.
    life is like a loo roll. the nearer the end you get, the faster it goes.
