    do you use bread mixes or bread flour, yeast etc?
    I occassionaly have a packet mix on standby,But i normaly make my own using the recipes that came with the breadmaker...much prefer this type of bread..I usualy set the BM up at night for fresh bread in the morning..lovely.

    just got this link off another thread. Haven't had time to check it out yet, but apparently it has flour/bread mix etc. :money: Just off to look through, but thought I would post it first in case there are some bargains that would interest us on here:) http://www.bigbrandsforless.co.uk/?page_id=136

    I had a look yesterday. I decided against it, partly storage problems (3.5kg bags must be pretty big!). Also, once you add the postage, you'd need to buy a lot to justify it. Can't help thinking I'd be buying more for the sake of it.
    Willing to be convinced though:)

    Lol I'm about as far away from you as possible:D I did think about that though, shame I don't know many people round here.

    Well done you MummyofTwo, even better than my tenner:)

    My s/mother has a bm in her loft (I assumed she'd given it away) and says I can have it. Not sure what make but I know it was expensive. My bargain one is fine (MR) but if I was paying proper money I'd have chosen a better one.
