No, you're not going bonkers, LOL!
I am, though! Seriously not enough room to store mixes without stressing out the family but that doesn't stop me wanting!
I think I've got a bit lazy with the white bread mix - it was so EASY and so successful that anything as complicated as using some ordinary flour to make bread etc. seems like a lot of bother. Shame on me - anyone would think I was having to sow the seeds, harvest and thresh them and grind them on a quern stone (nearly put 'Quorn stone', which I don't think would work very well!)
I need to get over my lazy ways, though: it could save us a lot.
ive got 2 from af
ordered 7 this time+
1 wholemeal bread mix

Thanks everyone for this page. I'd never heard of BB4L before, but a quick nosey on their website and I'd spent a small fortune, especially on the postage. Still good value for the money, but I thought as it is free collection from the store I'd look to see where the store is. REALLY close to me - about 2 mins walk from my kids senior school! I had seen the shop, but I hadn't ever been in it - not enough time when shops are open!
Has anyone else collected from store? Any idea when stuff likely to be ready? I'll email them tomorrow, but anyone's experiences gladly recieved.

I emailed yesterday in the end, not expecting an answer as it was about 10pm. Bright and early an answer popped into my inbox. Basically, for anyone else ever likely to collect, you print out your receipt email and bring it along to the store. I suggested when would be convenient for me to collect and they have fitted in with me.
Looking forward to bread, scones, doughnuts and baked beans for half term!!0 -
I have finally sent off an order! Mostly baking products but I didn't use their special baking offer as I have no idea what (as a weight-conscious household, LOL) we'd do with 12.5kg of vegetable suet! Anyone else have this problem?
Maybe I'll give in and get it when, having eaten all those scones, we give up on the diets
I'll try to remember to give y'all some feedback when the parcel comes.Miggy

My first order arrived today. Ordered Mon evening delivered Weds morning.
Was so well wrapped I had to fight to get into boxes. Jars wrapped in either bubblewrap or paper so nothing damaged or broken. I ordered the bread mixes, sponge mixes, jam, honey, some of the LG rissotto ( thats going to last a while!), C&B baked beans and some odds and ends. Didnt order huge amount - storage a problem but have to say very satisfied and will order again.
HTH anyone thinking of sending an order
