    My Tesco has the Thorntons mint choccies in the mothers day gifts section, surely these wont scan for 1p? Any tips or experiences?

    There are two different sizes of Thornton mints and only one is on clearance so make sure you pick the right one.

    The 316gr rectangular box is 1p, the other square box (dont know the weight) is full price
    Apparently, everybody knows that the bird is [strike]the word[/strike] a moorhen

    I think the square box is 190 or 195 grams.

    I looked at them this morning and didn't think they were the right box because I remembered the picture on here looking more rectangle
  • Check out your Tesco clothes department - our nearest in Peterborough had a brilliant bargain basement 'area' (i.e. bucket!) and managed to pick up a matching scarf and ear muffs for 20p each! YAy!

    I'll check for this and hopefully will be able to get my first 1p bargain, thanks :)

    I must remember that "Money Saving" is not buying heavily discounted items that I do not need. :hello:

    Just checked the Sk1p0n branch for all 1p choccy recommendations, but couldn't find any - thanks for the tips, though
    They're pants for 1p bargains in Skip. I go every week and nothing! Midwinter and I had a tag team almost going last year! They do have the cheese though!
