It is really good. I would order again at 1p but we are away for a few days so can't. Having said that, it is not particularly hot - the backs of your eyeballs won't sweat - just nice."A thousand candles can be lit from a single candle without shortening the life of that candle."

I haven't tried any yetI wouldn't buy from any of these companies. Looking at the products others have bought, it's all processed food with additives that I just don't want. The service also seems questionable in any case.0

Today is a rainy old day so I thought I might stock up on some out of date food from companies specialising in that stock. I haven't shopped with them for a long time, maybe a year. There are two main players and I have shopped with both previously. Anyway I was really disappointed. The bargains were not to be found. I usually shop at Aldi and they were cheaper than a lot of supposedly discounted items. I think it is expensive for out of date products. Has anyone else found this?Started comping February 2012
Wins so far:
Mascara, dry shampoo, chocolates, Loreal Elvive goody bag.Pot noodle fork , maggi mix, couscous,0 -
Yes, I find fewer bargains than a year or so ago. Maybe just the odd thing, but not worth paying the delivery for. And I get tempted into buying unhealthy stuff too. I've not ordered for at least a year, have an odd look now & again, start to fill a basket but then realise there's not enough I'd want to make it worthwhile. However it clearly suits some people, especially if you buy a lot of one thing.0
