    Indeed, not exactly nationwide, is it... Anyway, good spot and gave me a chuckle. :)

    (Also, will email them and complain about it being limited to just 6 locations in England ;))
  • surely Aldi can beat 17p a tin??

    Ahhhh

    Anyone else remember the bean wars that the supermarkets had about 8 years ago? I think Tesco value range were down to 3p.......
  • some stores paid you 1p to take their beans away :D:D:D
    Saving for a deposit: £11,000 / £50,000 (22%) :)

  • Heinz are being boycotted by many in Birmingham after their decision to close the HP Sauce factory in the city with the loss of 120 jobs, to move production to Holland - I now dont buy any Heinz products (Branston baked beans and tomato ketchup are just as good!) but good luck to anybody who can make some money out of them!

    I always preferred Hartley's beans anyway, so no great loss :)

    When I was young, I would only ever eat heinz beans. Now I am older, I'll happily eat supermarkets own brands - but not the real cheapo ones.
    Mind you, it might be something to do with the fact I cover them in worster sauce.
  • Touchwood is in Solihull - Silihillians won't appreciate them saying that it's in Birmingham!

    I refuse to buy HP sauce anymore because of that, its now Branston brown sauce and I also dont buy Heinz beinz Barnston beans and spahehetti are much better.

    No surprise they arent doing this in my area we are looked on as a dead end town and the end of the A64
