It's cheaper to buy 2 off 100gr jars @ £3.49 = £6.98 (even cheaper on current special offer @£3.00 till 11/10/2011) than 1 off 200gr jar @ £7.68. Save up to £1.68. Note, Asda want £3.98 for the same 100gr jar, and even more, £4.38, for the decaf which Tesco also have on special offer @ £3.38 till 11th October. If you like this blend, time to stock up.
Another cheap way to buy Alta Rica is the 150gr refills, but only if you buy them in Sainsbury's. Tesco want £5.48 (£3.66/100g) for one of these, but Sainsbury's always seem to have them at £3.65, less than the £3.99 for a 100gr jar. Have a look at

    Thanks for that. I do like the Alta Rica and used to be able to get it pretty regularly on offer at £2.50 or so but not recently. Will maybe try a jar of the decaf version this time too.
