  • Not a find to be had at all in Carrickfergus. However, I consoled myself with the half priced bacon joint I got at the hot food counter (just the right time for reductions, 4pm! ) and the free samples of icecream they were handing out!

    Guess what; I finally found where they were hiding the 1p wrapping paper at the local Express store; bit late now, oh well.

    Edit: did someone just say they got the 1p paper; had that not gone back up to £1? If not then I'll nip back down there pronto!
    my tesco has gone upto £1 BUT they had a sel for 50p so with dtd it was free worth a look the sel was on the bottom of the cards

    I was amazed today when i went in tesco express and got the bargain of a century. They had cadburys creme eggs, lindor eggs, mini eggs - large bags, and mini eggs in tubes, and malteasers bunny rabbits all for one pence each...clearly marked on the shelf. I swept everything off the shelf into my basket - which was completely overflowing and spent £2.22 on SEVEN carrier bags overflowing of chocolate.

    I must say, the other shoppers didn't seem impressed..no-one seemed to have noticed this insane bargain until I started sweeping the shelf - and as soon as they realised what they were missing out on I was getting tutted at by the other shoppers.

    Well my attitude is, if you snooze you loose. This is the first time I have ever struck lucky like this so I thought I would take full advantage.

    I think I wound them up further by waving my ten foot long receipt around above my head saying 'seven carrier bags full for £2.22''. :)

    What size were the mini eggs bags - sure I've seen them in my local

    I thought had seen them in one of my local expresses so off I went and hit the jackpot well not as many as the OP.

    Cadbury Creme Egg Minis 100g bag. Barcode 5 000201 483300. Best before 07/2011 on mine. SEL £1.25 but scanned 1p!!!

    Thanks ska lover for giving me the nudge to go and have look this evening. :T:T:T:T

    Ps All Easter leftovers were on a seperate stand last week but that had something else on so nearly left but saw these amongst all the other sweets and chocolates at the Express.
