Same shop as I use fairly frequently. The cartons there have been replenished several times- I usually take two or three and leave some for others. There were loads of the nuts initially, but after I posted on here they all vanished within 24 hours! By all means have a look at Manston, but I don't think you'll have much luck there; I've had a good rummage on several occasions to no avail- on the upside though, they do have a couple of price checkers, which makes life easier!

Another shopper at westwood cross too!!:j

I've never found any bargins at manston so I usually stick to westwood - i didn't know they still had price checkers left there... where are they in the store ?
I'll now be able to spot the other mse'ers at the price checkers hehehehehee

Hi

I went to Manston today armed with coupons and my last lonely little DTD voucher - had a good look for all the 1p items and found........ the caperberries!!:j They were on a shelf with the gherkins, olives etc tucked away in a corner almost hidden from view and with no price label on the shelf so you would have no idea of the price. I took 3 jars and there was still a whole tray left again. Put them through with a bit of other shopping and went through at 1p no problems.

Have just tried them and they are sort of a cross between an olive and a caper - would go very well with a selection of Italian antipasti - salamis, sliced meats, olives, carciofi (artichoke hearts) and peppers and sun dried tomatoes.

Hope this helps!

They don't at WWX- there were three originally, but they all got taken out. There are 2/3 at Manston though.

Doh- I remember now, Manston was my first Caperberry find.

Also spotted yesterday sachets of (colemans, I think) curry sauce- pic on the front of chips with sauce over them. Yellow RTC label @ 17p- scanned at the same price. Worth watching.

Woohoo. I just popped into a different store to hunt and to buy the countrylife butters which are £1.3o in Ts but only 50p in As (will get difference refunded and I used 30p off vouchers for butter from discount thread!) and whilst looking in the bin for some wombles, I found a fiver!!!!!! Now that has NEVER happened before!!!!!

Actually, now I'm sitting here typing, I do believe I may be talking out of my backside. I may be confusing it with Dover/Folkestone/Whitstable. However, if you want to have a look, remember they're always on a pillar- and there's often one hidden away in the clothes section.

I'll have another proper look when I'm next over there! :cool:
