    I remember a television advert years ago which started with " A Stardrops work is never done". Does anyone else remember this?

    True. It's already gone up from 58p to 67p in ASDA. Brilliant stuff though: it could shift Staines from Surrey. :smiley:

    an advert for cif came on showing someone spilling food etc over surfaces

    I hate that cif advert! do people really think they need to use cleaning products to wipe up a bit of spilt food - haven't they heard of a damp cloth? or do they leave the spill for a couple of days till it's gone hard and yucky?

    sorry, it's just one of those things that make me crazy!

    Can you get Stardrops from any of the big supermarkets? I keep hearing about it, but haven't gotten around to getting any yet.

    You should be able to. I've seen it in ASDA and Morrisons. Wilkinsons also do it. However, it does seem to get "hidden" down at floor level, so you buy the more expensive, more profitable stuff at eye level.

    This is what you are looking for ...

    Me too. I'm really lucky that nearly all the shops in my local area sell it, including my corner shop. They also all sell Startips and Starpine and things, and they don't cost that much more than in Asda.

    I love Stardrops but I must admit that liquid soda crystals are fantastic too - and they're even harder to find than Stardrops!
